Ador CEO Min Hee-jin, who is suspected of covering up workplace bullying and sexual harassment, will appear on stage as scheduled for the '2024 Hyundai Card Da Vinci Motel' lecture.
On the 19th, Hyundai Card told Sports World, "There has been no change regarding the invitation of CEO Min Hee-jin as a speaker for '2024 Hyundai Card Da Vinci Motel'."
CEO Min is scheduled to appear on stage as a speaker on the first day of '2024 Hyundai Card Da Vinci Motel', which will be held in the Itaewon Hyundai Card area for three days from September 27th to 29th. As CEO Min previously garnered attention with her unconventional press conference, it has been reported that she will be holding a talk show on the topic of 'Min Hee-jin's Freestyle, a Producer Who Breaks the Formula of K-Pop'. In particular, unlike other speakers who are given around 50 minutes, CEO Min has attracted attention by being given 100 minutes.
However, CEO Min has recently been embroiled in suspicions of covering up workplace bullying and sexual harassment at Ador. There were also opinions that it was inappropriate for Representative Min to appear as a lecturer when the suspicions had not been resolved.
Previously, former employee B of Ador, who was involved in the incident, revealed that Representative Min had supported the perpetrator, Executive A, and ignored him. In response, Representative Min released a long statement of explanation spanning 18 pages of A4 paper, saying, “This is a forced nitpicking for dismissal.” Person B said, “The reason I am angry is that Representative Min did not maintain neutrality and made false and distorted explanations. All I want is a correction of the lies and a public apology.” He also threatened legal action, saying, “I will meet you in court and at the Labor Office in the future. I expect you to step on me for false accusation as you promised. If you know shame, I hope you will not appear as a lecturer in front of the public.”
In addition, Executive A, known as “Representative Min’s right-hand man” and the perpetrator of the incident, said in an exclusive interview with Sports World, “I did not sexually harass anyone. The response to Mr. B was that the sexual harassment report at the time was proven to be false, and they ended up reconciling. He never admitted to any wrongdoing. He said, “The victim is not Mr. B, but me,” and “I am not Representative Min’s right-hand man,” creating a new situation.
