On December 12, Dispatch published an article accusing Min Hee-jin of using NewJeans as a tool and being involved in the girl group’s press conference and Hanni’s hearing at the national assembly.
In this article, Dispatch published numerous screenshots of Min Hee-jin’s alleged text messages, as well as several photos of the former ADOR CEO and NewJeans members.
However, the photos of Min Hee-jin and NewJeans members basically revealed that Dispatch has been stalking them, resulting in a strong backlash.
Furthermore, after seeing the photos and screenshots, many netizens expressed doubts, pointing to possible evidence that the text messages had been maliciously edited. According to a post on the SNS
Additionally, it turned out that the Dispatch reporter who wrote the article had previously been accused of violating the Personal Information Protection Act by a NewJeans fan base, adding to the suspicion.
All of this leads to speculation that Dispatch may partner with HYBE to undercut Min Hee-jin and NewJeans, who have rebelled against the conglomerate.
Below are some comments from netizens:
- Journalists are the real guards and combat soldiers of HYBE
- Would it be possible for the NewJeans parents to sue and get a restraining order? Shipping is really disgusting
- Is Dispatch literally stalking a minor?
- Do they think they are above the law? Stalking is a clear crime
- Wow, now that company is also doing illegal things with confidence
