With New Jeans' Daniel receiving notice of termination of his exclusive contract with his agency, Adore, controversy surrounding the amount of his penalty has intensified. Hani has confirmed her return, while Daniel faces the possibility of a lawsuit seeking damages in the hundreds of millions to trillions of won. We'll examine the background to the contract termination, the legal issues, the individual member choices, and the future prospects for New Jeans as a four-member group.
1. What Happened When New Jeans' Daniel Contract Was Terminated?
December 29, 2025,
Adore announced through an official statement that they have notified New Jeans member Daniel of the termination of his exclusive contract.
Adore explained that Daniel engaged in activities that violated his exclusive contract and failed to comply with requests for corrective action. This decision resulted in New Jeans being reorganized as a four-member group instead of returning as a full group.
2. Honey's return confirmed, Minzy is in negotiations
On the same day, Adore announced that Hani had decided to return in accordance with the court's ruling that her exclusive contract was valid.
Haerin and Hyein have also expressed their intention to return, and Minji is currently in discussions with her agency.
As each member's choice diverges, the situation within New Jeans becomes more complicated.
3. How much was Daniel's deposit? The truth behind the 100 billion won theory.
The biggest concern is the amount of the penalty Daniel will have to pay.
Industry sources suggest that, based on the formula outlined in the exclusive contract, the compensation could range from hundreds of billions of won to as much as 100 billion won. However, these figures are merely estimates. In actual litigation, penalty and damages may be claimed separately, and the court may reduce the amounts if deemed excessive.
It is difficult to determine the amount at this stage.
4. Adore Hive's Position and Legal Issues
Adore was found responsible for causing this dispute and delaying the return.
They also announced that they would hold Daniel's family and former CEO Min Hee-jin legally accountable.
Parent company Hive is also viewing this matter as a serious contractual dispute. The key issues are likely to be whether Daniel's actions constituted a breach of his exclusive contract and whether the amount of damages should be assessed appropriately.
5. New Jeans' future plans, the possibility of a four-person system
Currently, there is talk of the possibility of New Jeans resuming activities centered around Hani, Haerin, and Hyein.
Daniel's independent activities are unlikely to be easy for the time being due to contract termination and lawsuit risks.
This incident is an example that once again reveals the vulnerability of the K-pop exclusive contract structure and the trust issue between members and their agencies.
The final conclusion may change depending on future court decisions and additional statements.
FAQ
Q1. Why did New Jeans Daniel receive notice of contract termination?
Adore stated that Daniel engaged in activities that violated his exclusive contract and failed to comply with requests for corrective action. The specific violations were not disclosed due to legal proceedings, and the agency's claims are currently pending.
Q2. Is Daniel's deposit really 100 billion won?
The 100 billion won figure is merely an industry estimate and is not a definitive figure. While exclusive contracts typically quote figures in the hundreds of billions to 100 billion won range, in actual litigation, the amount could be reduced if the court deems it excessive.
Q3. Why did Honey return to Adore?
It has been reported that Hani decided to return in accordance with the court's ruling that her exclusive contract was valid.
It is reported that after discussion with his family, he decided to continue his activities with his agency.
Q4. Will New Jeans continue to operate as a four-member group?
Currently, Haerin, Hyein, and Hani have confirmed their return, and Minji is in negotiations. If Daniel's contract termination is upheld,
It is highly likely that New Jeans will operate as a four-member team, but the final decision will have to wait for the official announcement.
