For the first time in the HYBE vs. Min Hee Jin dispute, NewJeans members take a side and show support for

According to reports, Min Hee Jin’s supporters, which include Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein, have all five members of NewJeans signed a petition in court. The “controversial” CEO, who oversees Billboard-performing artists, is presently embroiled in a dispute with ADOR’s parent firm, HYBE Labels. It is rumoured that the petition letter was written in Min Hee Jin’s favour and filed to the Seoul Central District Court, but the specifics are still unknown.

Previously, Min Hee Jin’s open support against HYBE CEO Bang Si Hyuk, who was accused of mistreating and exploiting NewJeans, came exclusively from the parents of NewJeans members. In the email that described the event, there were also repeated attempts to discredit the organisation and instances of obvious plagiarism. According to Yonhap, media reporters recently discovered that petition letters filed by Danielle Marsh, Kim Minji, Hanni Pham, Kang Haerin, and Lee Hyein were included in court papers from the May 17 session.

In HYBE vs. Min Hee Jin, NewJeans takes a side.

Since the beginning of Hybe and ADOR’s power struggle, this is the first time the burgeoning K-pop female group has taken a stance. It was previously reported that the group members’ parents also submitted a court petition in support of Min Hee Jin. Meanwhile, HYBE has to produce proof to back up the charges against Min Hee Jin that would permit her dismissal as CEO in order to prevent the civil court from taking away their ability to vote at the next ADOR shareholder meeting, which is scheduled for May 31, KST.

A Hybe representative responded to the petition by saying, “Min Hee Jin has no interest in protecting the artists.” She is using the members as a barrier to protect herself, but if she really did think of herself as the “Mother of NewJeans,” she would act as a shield and stand in front of them to shelter them from adversity.” attributed to AllKpop.

The purported group backing for Min Hee Jin transpires only one day after rumours circulated that HYBE intended to place NewJeans on extended hiatus. One of the parents revealed that the K-pop powerhouse planned to offer the group a vacation following their Tokyo Dome concerts in Japan the following month. The official who talked with NewJeans said they will work with a Grammy-winning music producer, but it would take some time—roughly a year and a half—and did not clarify how long the gap would last.

Post Kanguva debacle, Tamil Nadu producers demand ban of YouTube channels from theatres

This decision comes after the release of Kanguva on November 14, which saw a lot of negative feedback on the opening day from YouTube reviews.

On Wednesday, the Tamil Nadu Producers Council (TNPC) issued a strong statement requesting theatre owners to ban fans’ interviews by YouTube channels on theatre premises post the first day first shows (FDFS) and cooperate in doing away with this FDFS public review and opinion process completely.

In a long four-page letter, the Tamil Nadu Producers Council has condemned ‘personal attacks and incitement of hatred in the name of film reviews.’ They said that films like Indian 2, Vettaiyan and Kanguva were highly impacted due to YouTube FDFS public reviews.

What the letter stated

This letter comes after the release of Suriya’s film Kanguva on November 14 which saw a tremendous amount of negative feedback from the audience in the first day first show YouTube reviews and opinion videos. The TNPC wrote that journalists have the right to criticise flaws in the film and talk about the positives and negatives but no one can engage in personal attacks and try to destroy the entire film in their reviews. According to them, this would lead to the downfall of the film industry itself.

The letter also stated, “Critics have every right to review movies. But we request all journalists to write film reviews keeping in mind that hatred towards a film should not be sown in the media because of personal malice. It is imperative that all the associations related to the film industry unite and stop this practice by not encouraging them anymore.”

More details

Kerala was the first state to establish this ban on YouTube reviews. In 2023, Mubeen Rauf, director of Aromalinte Adyathe Pranayam, who was supported by the Producers’ Association filed a case in court to ban YouTube reviewers from theatre premises as their negative public opinion videos were affecting the film business.

The Kerala High Court then issued a directive to the concerned authorities to prevent online reviews of films by social media influencers, YouTube reviewers, and bloggers for seven days following the release of a film.

The court went a step further and even issued notice to the Union Ministry of Information and Broadcasting and the Central Board of Film Certification to establish clear and transparent guidelines for online film critics and vloggers. Producers felt this move would protect the industry.
