1) For New Jeans to leave Hybe, they will have to file an injunction to terminate their contracts (like Loona members, Fifty Fifty members, etc)

2) News Tomato estimates that the New Jeans members were paid 5B each last year while the Ador execs only made 4.8B collectively so it is easy to see why MHJ would want to set up her own company

5) Dispatch reports that all the New Jeans members were Source Music trainees. Minji and Hanni passed the Source Mu Global Audition in 2017 and 2019. Haerin and Danielle joined as trainees in 2020 and finally Hyein joined Source.

They trained at Source Music until the second half of 2021. MHJ picked them to form New Jeans and passed the cost of training onto Source. When MHJ joined Hybe in 2019 her role was as Chief Branding Officer for all Hybe affilliates.

She was to create a GG under Source but then wanted to be the head of her own label so Ador was established in 2021.
Previously Min Heejin had objected to people saying Ador was a success because of Hybe capital

A different article misinterpreted the original Dispatch article. dispatch says that Source absorbed those training costs. Ador did not pay for the training of New Jeans. (The dispatch article tone is pretty scathing)

It’s this article but they clearly are reporting from the original Dispatch one so I think they just misread the Dispatch article m.entertain.naver.com/ranking/articl… (this is no 2 on entertain.naver)
