[Exclusive] ‘All-out effort to fire Min Hee-jin’ Hive, outline of new Adore executives
Hive, which is making an all-out effort to dismiss Adore CEO Min Hee-jin, is also preparing for a new CEO and board of directors to lead Adore.

According to Ten Asia coverage on the 21st, Hive is accepting applications for additional support from internal and external personnel for the new CEO position of Adore until the 24th. At the same time, he is said to be closely seeking out and contacting appropriate personnel. There was industry speculation that the selection of the new Adore representative included personnel related to not only domestic but also overseas artists. Once the application and recommendation process is completed, the outline is expected to be released early next week. Hive plans to carry out reputation checks and verification of potential candidates until the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders is held from the 25th, and to establish a new CEO and Adore board of directors through the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders on the 31st.

Meanwhile, following the dismissal of CEO Min, Hive is preparing a support project for the future activities of the group New Genes and member care. The position is that a specific plan will be put into operation immediately after the dismissal of Representative Min, and New Genes activities will proceed without a hitch.

Stunner Hybe wants to continue teh NJ money train.
Again I see the kids and parents falling for the personality and attachment to MJH against teh
EVIL parent company.

 

[mysteric]

mhj's talent i think has always been in bringing concepts not yet in kpop and making them mainstream so honestly not too surprised, but also there's only so much y2k you can tastefully do without similarities popping up
tons of the creatives who have worked rather extensively w newjeans have come out supporting mhj, from choreographers to mv directors, so even if only she gets kicked I doubt newjeans will feel the same afterwards
bts sajaegi is going through investigations again, and hybe stocks are trading at nearly an all time low, depending on their relationship with shareholders they might not be as secure as they started out thinking

 

[lily]

i'm tuned into this drama because my faves are getting dragged unnecessarily.

some antis use their sentiments against hybe to start their hate train on hybe groups but its not on the groups at all

It's definitely similar, but I've heard that similar progression and tone in other songs (that don't spring to mind rn). It's very plausible that Attention was created by someone who had never heard this song.

It's a bop though.

According to a report by the Law Times, the Yongsan Police Station, where a complaint was filed against CEO Min for alleged breach of trust, issued a silence order to its employees regarding related cases. After the late Lee Seon-kyun's drug incident, police officers are cautious about the investigation situation being leaked to the outside world, and the differences in positions between the parties are sharp, so investigation information can be misused as a tool for public opinion warfare. On the 25th of last month, Hive accused CEO Min of breach of trust and other charges, saying he attempted to seize management rights from Adore.

Hive submitted data several more times afterward. Yongsan Prefecture conducted data analysis and legal review for three weeks and plans to summon Hive officials within this week to investigate. Even if the police declares no charges, objections from related parties or requests for supplementary investigation from the prosecution may be repeated, putting more weight on transferring the case to the prosecution. In this case, it is known that there is a high possibility that the case will be assigned to the 4th detective division of the Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office, which specializes in economic-related crimes such as charges of breach of trust.

hello.

This is Belift Lab.

Today (May 22nd), we filed a complaint alleging obstruction of business and defamation against CEO Min Hee-jin, who is causing damage by claiming unilaterally false information against the company and its artists.

Regarding CEO Min's allegations of plagiarism against our company's artist Illit, we would like to clearly state that this is not true. We have submitted evidence to the judicial authorities to prove that the suspicions are not true, and although it may take some time, we will determine right from wrong according to legal procedures.

Plagiarism of intellectual property is a matter that must be judged according to reasonable standards and procedures rather than an individual's one-sided and distorted interpretation. Nevertheless, we express regret at the situation in which the efforts and achievements of our artists and members are being disparaged due to reckless speculation and false information.

In addition, although the nature of this issue has nothing to do with Illit, Illit members are suffering from a serious level of malicious comments, ridicule, and personal attacks. We earnestly ask you to stop slanderous attacks such as reckless insults, malicious slander, spread of false information, and defamation of artists.

We will do our best to protect our artists and members. thank you

[Exclusive] Adore CEO Jae-sang Lee is expected to succeed Min Hee-jin as Hive CSO.. New Genes-related business changes expected
While Hive is focusing its efforts on dismissing Adore CEO Min Hee-jin, Hive's C-level (a term for top management), including Hive CSO (Strategy Manager) Jae-sang Lee, are being considered as strong candidates for the new Adore board of directors.

According to the investment banking (IB) industry on the 22nd, Hive CSO Jae-sang Lee, Hive CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer) Joo-young Kim, and Hive CFO (Chief Financial Officer) Gyeong-jun Lee will be named as new board members at Adore's extraordinary general shareholders' meeting to be held on the 31st. He is being mentioned as a strong candidate.

The two agenda items at this Adore extraordinary general shareholders' meeting are the dismissal of three current Adore directors, including CEO Min Hee-jin, and the appointment of three new board members. Accordingly, it is said that Hive has been considering candidates for Adore's board of directors from early on.

Among the Hive C-Levels currently being discussed as Adore's new board of directors, the person most likely to be the new CEO of Adore is Jae-sang Lee, CSO. CSO Lee Jae-sang was also the person Hive proposed as a candidate for SM director when Hive was competing to acquire SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as SM). CSO Lee Jae-sang, who was the CEO of Hive America at the time, was thought to be the new CEO of SM if Hive acquired SM. Jae-Sang Lee, CEO of Hive America at the time, said that Hive had already successfully operated the main business of 'SM 3.0', and that after reexamining SM's existing strategy overall, the implementation of a strategy based on the Hive business model was a key factor for success. He also suggested.

CHRO Kim Joo-young was the first woman to head the human resources team at Yuhan-Kimberly, and is a human resources expert who was scouted by Hibro while working as the head of the HR division at Crefton. CFO Lee Gyeong-jun worked in accounting at Samil PwC, PwC Sydney, and Kim & Chang, and is considered a major contributor to Hive's KOSPI listing. CFO Kyung-Jun Lee also serves as an internal director at Source Music, a label under Hive.

Rumor has it that these three Hive C-level members were rumored to be members of Adore's board of directors from the beginning of this incident.

Centered around Jae-sang Lee, CSO, Jin-soo Jeong, Chief Legal Officer (CLO) of Hive, and Jin-hwa Lee, Head of Management Planning at Hive, are also being discussed as candidates for new directors of Adore. All three are also candidates for SM's new director proposed by Hive during the SM takeover.

If the court accepts the court's request for a temporary injunction to ban voting rights filed by CEO Min Hee-jin against Hive, only two of Adore's three board members will be dismissed and newly appointed. In this case, since Hive personnel control the majority of the board of directors, a board meeting may be held and a motion to dismiss CEO Min Hee-jin may be passed. However, in this case, CEO Min Hee-jin can file a lawsuit against Hive for violation of the shareholder agreement.

At this time, Hive has a plan to change the Adore system to a two-person system with a production manager and a management representative. Currently, among the labels under Hive, except Adore, all other companies have a two-person system, a production manager and a management representative. Adoreman CEO Min Hee-jin will be in charge of both management and production management.

A high-ranking Hive official said, “There are currently no plans to officially announce the appointment of directors at Adore’s extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting to be held on the 31st,” but added, “In production and management, overall efficiency increases when experts focus on the areas they are good at. “Problems can arise when one person takes charge of the other,” he said. Therefore, Hive may scout a new person as head of production after replacing Adore's board of directors.

Meanwhile, changes in the Adore system are expected to be inevitable depending on whether the court cites or dismisses the case.

This is because many of Adore's team leaders submitted a petition to CEO Min Hee-jin in response to this provisional injunction request. Members of New Jeans, the only idols under Adore, and the members' parents also submitted a petition to CEO Min Hee-jin.

Therefore, if CEO Min and other members of the board of directors of Adore turn into Hive's personnel, many of them may quit Adore. In response, Hive said, "Only about three or four people who are responsible for taking over management rights will step down," adding, "What are the other people guilty of?"

Apart from Hive's position, if a large number of Adore employees quit, it cannot be ruled out that other labels such as Pledis and Billie Lab under Hive will take charge of New Jeans' work for the time being. In fact, Park Ji-won, CEO of Hive, told three New Jeans members' mothers, who held an interview on the 25th last month, "Although CEO Min did not share the data of New Jeans Tokyo Dome in June, Hive will be able to proceed well because there are many professionals."
