It's been about a week since NewJeans sent a certified letter to ADOR, warning that they would terminate their exclusive contracts if their demands were not met.
Since then, many netizens have taken an interest in the group's uncertain future as there is a high possibility that NewJeans will no longer continue with ADOR. If it comes to NewJeans terminating their contracts, it is unclear if they would be able to continue under their NewJeans brand.
The members also seem to be aware of this fact as they shared emotional remarks about the group's future during the 2024 Korea Grand Music Awards. Hanni shared, "Honestly, we don't know how long we'll be NewJeans anymore... But the bond between the five of us and Bunnies is unbreakable. So, let's stick together until the very end." After Danielle also added, "Even if we're not NewJeans anymore, NewJeans will never die."
With the latest speech from the group, netizens are wondering what NewJeans' new name would be if they fail to secure the trademark rights.
Korean netizens commented:
"If they change labels, then yeah... But NewJeans is so perfect so I think I would be so sad if they changed their name."
"MinHeeJeans."
"New T-Shirts."
"New Khakis."
"Maybe just change the spelling and make it NewJeanz."
"The NewJeans Premium."
"I don't think the name matters. We, Bunnies, will be here to support them always."
"The NewJeans."
"The New NewJeans."
"Mother Rabbit."
"NewJeans Bunnies."
"Newfy."
"What about MDHHH like ZOFGK with T1."
"NJS = NewJeans."
"I think just NewJean would be good too."
"If it's Min Hee Jin, she won't give them a new name that sounds similar. She probably would give the group a brand new name to start new."
"I think they would get a really good, refreshing name."
"Let's go with Bunnies."
"Minijeans."
