It was not an easy decision, but we think this is something we need to do right now.”
Newjeans includes the Hanni members, American (Kang Hae-Rin), Minj(Kim Min-Ji), Danielle (Danielle Marsh) and Sleeve (Lee Hyye-in).

“With our status as NewJeans’ unique agency has now legally confirmed, we are fully committed to supporting the artists going forward,” Ador said in a statement to CNN on Friday, March 21.
