Min Hee-jin Admitted To Researching How She Can Take Over ADOR

Min Hee-Jin of ADOR did a follow-up interview on April 26 KST on the YouTube live show, 'Kim Hyun Jung's News Show'. She admitted to researching for ways to acquire ADOR but emphasized she never acted on them.

She said she entertained suggestions and went 'Is it possible or not?'. She said she doesn't know if it was a crime by simply imagining scenarios.

She said, "Even if bring an outside investor, I need permission from Hybe. Hybe owns 80%, I own 18% and the employees own 2%. Sure, I drew some possible scenarios but I never acted upon them."

She was asked about Project 1945. She said she is not an expert on these matters. She said, "I may be in a management position, but arent M&As and investment totally different areas? I sought various suggestions precisely because I am no expert."

She continued, "At times, I was serious and, at times, I was not so much. But they pieced together different conversations to attack me. I don't mean to point fingers but their intentions seem impure."

She was asked why she accused ILLIT of copying New Jeans. She said, "I did not bring up the issue just because I think I am that great. The creative trends in the contemporary age requires that you take various influences from the past. And recreate something with your own distinct flair. I noticed that the formula used was problematic in terms of visual and vibes. I felt that a line had been overstepped on. So, I spoke about the issue."

She also responded to fans asking her to leave NewJeans out of it. She said she cannot leave them out since it's NewJeans that calls her 'mother of NewJeans'. She said it reassured her of her relationship with the members.

She also responded to the latest statement of Hybe that stated her statement is not worth responding to. She said that she also thinks it's useless to say anything further since the issues may be resolved internally.

She said she thinks the reason Hybe brought it out to the public is to ruin her and discredit her so people won't believe whatever she says. She said they (Hybe and her) have done enough.

She said, "We took turns throwing punches and getting hits. It's getting childish so let's stop here. I do not wish to continue this battle publicly. Why do I have to be judged by the public when they don't know the whole truth? Only the parties involved know the truth."

So far, she has confirmed everything Hybe has said. She is just denying her intention but she basically confirmed that whatever Hybe said she did, she actually did.

She said she didn't "act" on the plan to takeover ADOR but admitted to talking to investors.

It isn't looking good for her. If Hybe keeps their "we don't settle" rule, she has darker days ahead.
