NewJeans or "Jeanz," who are currently in a dispute with the agency ADOR over their exclusive contract, are continuing activities on their own.
On December 18, VOGUE Korea released the group's first collaborative photoshoot with former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin following their contract termination with the agency. "Jeanz" shared the stunning pictorial with fans through their new social media account 'Jeanzforfree.'
In particular, fans noticed the use of their real names — Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein — instead of the group name NewJeans.
While there have been rumors that the group has been blacklisted by various industry brands and companies, Korean netizens were impressed with the group's ongoing activities, including this latest Vogue pictorial.
K-netizens commented:
""Where is their blacklist?"
"Wow, Danielle in pixie cut is so crazy."

"Wow. This is just so outstanding. How can these girls be in one group? Stunning."
