• ADOR Plans Board of Directors Meeting Amidst HYBE Legal Feud

    ADOR, the label caught in a legal dispute with parent company HYBE, is set to hold a board of directors meeting this week in Seoul amidst ongoing tensions.

    Reportedly, ADOR notified HYBE of the scheduled board meeting to be held on May 10, KST. The meeting will see the participation of CEO Min Hee Jin, Vice President Shin, and Creative Director Kim.

    This development follows last week's report stating Min Hee Jin's initial refusal of HYBE's call for a board meeting aimed at expediting the dismissal process of Min Hee Jin and her directors from ADOR.

    Min argued that the call lacked legal basis, asserting that the rights to convene an audited board of directors are limited to the scope of the audit's requirements, rendering the call illegal.

    In addition to the board meeting, ADOR's legal representatives have stated plans for a general shareholders' meeting by the end of May.

    Online sentiment appears to heavily favor Min Hee Jin, drawing parallels between her and the underdog character Kongji from Korean folklore.

    Fans express hope for her success in the ongoing dispute, rallying behind messages of support and encouragement.

    With the situation unfolding, fans eagerly await further developments in the legal battle between ADOR and HYBE, hoping for a favorable outcome for Min Hee Jin and the label she represents.

  • BLACKPINK Jennie’s Mom Had a Hilarious Reaction to Her Becoming a Chanel Ambassador—Her Response? “Ah, It’s Over”

    BLACKPINK’s Jennie recently shared a fun conversation with her mom, revealing her mother’s unexpected reaction to her becoming a Chanel ambassador!

    On March 13, a video was uploaded to the YouTube channel "Study King Genius Hong Jin Kyung." In the video, Hong Jin Kyung visited Jennie’s office.

    Since Jennie had previously mentioned that Hong Jin Kyung always makes her laugh, she greeted her warmly with a big hug.

    During their chat, Hong Jin Kyung shared a personal story, saying, "My daughter Rael went all the way to the U.S. to watch BLACKPINK at Coachella, but she got scammed when buying tickets. So, she couldn’t see BLACKPINK and ended up crying her eyes out." Jennie reacted with surprise and sympathy.

    As they got to know each other better, Jennie decided to call her mom to ask about her prenatal dream. However, her mom didn’t answer right away, so Jennie joked, "She’ll call back later."

    Jennie also opened up about her childhood, saying, "I had a strong sense of style from a young age. I loved fashion. I was a really obedient child, but when it came to school, I insisted on wearing what I wanted."

    She then talked about her experience studying alone in New Zealand for five years, starting at age nine. "I think it was a crucial experience that helped shape who I am today," she shared.

    When the topic of her Chanel ambassadorship came up, Jennie said, "It’s a brand I work with, but since I’ve been with them for so long, they feel like family."

    Later, Jennie’s mom finally returned her call. When Jennie asked, "What was my prenatal dream?" her mother replied, "A really big tiger… ah, it caught a carp." Jennie laughed and said, "I think Mom is confused too."

    But the moment that caught everyone’s attention was when Jennie asked how her mom felt about her being a Chanel ambassador. Her mother simply said, "Ah, it’s over."

    Hong Jin Kyung then joked, "Does that mean it's now my daughter's era? It’s over?"—causing everyone to burst into laughter.

    Later, Hong Jin Kyung playfully suggested playing a traditional Korean game with Jennie and made a hilarious request: "Jennie, when you go to Paris, I want to carry your bag. With my own money. But I’ll just bring a tiny camera and follow you a little. I won’t go inside Chanel."

    After Hong Jin Kyung won the game, Jennie kept her promise and said, "See you in Paris (in October)," leaving fans excited for what’s next!
