Shin Woo Seok, the CEO of Dolphin Kidnapping Co. and the creative mind behind NewJeans' music videos for "Ditto" and "ETA," has revealed that ADOR has requested the removal of all content related to NewJeans.

On September 2nd, Shin shared on social media, "It looks like ADOR has undergone a policy change with their new management. Because of this, they've asked us to delete all the music videos and related content that Dolphin Kidnapping Co. has created and uploaded, as well as any planned videos that were set to be released."

He explained further, "The Dolphin Kidnapping Co. and Ban Hee Soo YouTube channels were mainly set up as a portfolio to showcase our work, and we don't make any money from them. These videos were made purely out of a desire to create something special for the fans, without any financial gain."

Shin added, "But with ADOR's new stance, all of these videos will be deleted and can no longer be shared. As of now, it seems that any future collaboration between Dolphin Kidnapping Co. and ADOR is no longer possible."

He expressed his disappointment, saying, "There were projects we had planned with the NewJeans members for the future, but it's really unfortunate that we can't follow through with them. I want to apologize to the staff who worked so hard for months and, most of all, to the fans who were eagerly waiting."

This comes after ADOR announced on August 27th that former CEO Min Hee Jin was dismissed and replaced by Kim Joo Young, an internal director, as the new CEO.

While ADOR mentioned that Min Hee Jin would still be involved in NewJeans' production as an internal director, Min's side disagreed, claiming she was unilaterally dismissed and that the terms of the proposed contract for her continued involvement were unreasonable.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
