However, although the visa issue is important, netizens quickly turn against ADOR for revealing and announcing the issue in a public manner. In particular, many have pointed out that there are many foreign idols, but the companies have never made it so obvious, believing that ADOR uses it as an excuse to “reaffirm” that NewJeans’ contract with them is still valid.
ADOR raised the issue of Hanni’s work visa because firstly it is a private matter and they absolutely should not reveal it to the public

ADOR’s repeated claims that “the NewJeans contract is still valid” simply suggest that the contract is no longer valid, so they are resorting to influencing public perception, hoping it will save them.
From what I’ve researched, ADOR has the option to request an expedited hearing…

Woww worshiper again.. If you’re suggesting he resides “illegally” there, then isn’t it also illegal to post pictures of girls on social media? You had no connection to them when Omega and Vogue came out. And if you think it’s still under your management, why are you sharing it…
