Overview
- At a brief Seoul press conference, the former ADOR chief proposed forfeiting the 25.6 billion won awarded to her if HYBE halts all civil and criminal cases, including those involving NewJeans, former staff, partners and fans.
- HYBE has not accepted the proposal, saying it has no position and will continue with its appeal.
- The Seoul Central District Court granted HYBE a stay of enforcement on Feb. 23, blocking Min’s seizure attempts and pausing payment until an appellate decision.
- To secure the stay, HYBE deposited 29.25 billion won with the court, an amount exceeding the roughly 25.5–25.6 billion won first-instance award.
- Separate cases remain active, including ADOR’s roughly 43.1 billion won damages suit involving former member Danielle, while ADOR promoted a new brand film as three NewJeans members returned and Minji’s talks continued.
