South Korean entertainment agency Ador has stirred significant reactions in the K-pop industry after terminating NewJeans member Danielle Marsh's exclusive contract. This now intensifies the group's ongoing legal dispute into what may become an expensive courtroom confrontation.
On Monday, 29 December, Ador shared on X that it had terminated Danielle's contract and intends to take legal action not only against her but also a family member. Former Ador CEO Min Hee-jin, whom the company claims was instrumental in the conflict that disrupted the group's activities, is also involved in the said lawsuit.
