NewJeans instantly rocketed to success with their debut in 2022. The girl group quickly became one of the most well-known groups in K-pop, as fans waited to see what they would do next. Over the past year, however, the future of NewJeans has become uncertain. With the numerous ongoing legal cases and controversies now associated with the group, NewJeans' musical career seems to be on hold indefinitely. 

As the latest development in NewJeans' legal battle with ADOR, the group recently made a post expressing their hopes for a return to fans. The new post has made NewJeans a hot topic once again. Netizens are currently debating over the uncertain future of the group, and whether or not it is still possible for NewJeans to return to their former status as a top girl group.


"I liked their music, but I'm tired of only seeing articles about lawsuits and contracts when it comes to them... I wonder if I'll feel differently when they come back"

"I'm sure there will be some serious damage done to their image no matter how this case turns out. Even if they release a good, popular song, I think it will be difficult for them to maintain that same favorable image they had before. The fact that they held press conferences that criticized the K-pop industry, the fact that they had a negative impact on ordinary people due to misinterpretations of certain situations, the fact that the evidence they submitted to the court was ambiguous, etc... These things have impacted their image too much"

"It's not like their talent level will be different. However, NewJeans depends on their unique concept... if the production isn't excellent, their music will only be B-grade at best..."

"If they put out a good song, I'll listen to it"


"The people around me who don't know much about idols and only listen to the music don't care. Most people say that as long as the song is good, it's fine"

"They'll never achieve the same level of success that they had before. But if they put out more good music, I'm sure they'll be able to continue as a group"

"At this point, it seems they must have been manipulated by Min Hee Jin all along. If they come to their senses and apologize, it's possible they can recover from all this"


"It will be 2 or 3 years before the lawsuit is concluded, so I wonder if they'll be able to maintain their favorability during that time"


"If they put out something like 'Attention' or 'Hype Boy', it will successful. If they put out something more like the rest of their songs, it will be a shame..."


"I just want them to come back quickly"

"Even criminals can make a comeback if the song is good. It seems possible. Please go back to ADOR and give us a good song"
