NewJeans Member Danielle Dropped From Girl Group Amid ADOR Lawsuit Fallout

Hanni is officially confirmed to return to the label, while Minji is still in "ongoing conversations."

ADOR has shared an update on the status of NewJeans‘ lineup amid the HYBE subsidiary’s ongoing legal issues with the girl group.

On Monday (Dec. 29), ADOR announced via a statement on X that Danielle — one of the K-pop quintet’s original members — will not be returning to NewJeans in light of the label’s court win earlier this year. “Having determined that it would be difficult for her to continue as a NewJeans member and ADOR artist, the company notified her today of the termination of her exclusive contract,” the Korean-language statement reads, according to the site’s English translation.
