Min Hee-jin Holds Fourth Press Conference Amid Ongoing Conflict with HYBE

Min Hee-jin Holds Fourth Press Conference Amid Ongoing Conflict with HYBE
Min Hee-jin is holding a press conference regarding her conflict with HYBE.
The conference will address issues related to her option rights and debts.
Her statements are expected to significantly influence the future course of events.

Former ADOR CEO Min Hee-jin announced today that she will hold a press conference on the 25th regarding her recent legal victory concerning the HYBE option. This conference comes as the court accepted HYBE's request for a stay on the execution of its judgment. Min, who has been in a lengthy battle with HYBE's Bang Si-hyuk, is expected to argue for her right to exercise the option amid her debts, estimated to exceed 4 billion KRW. Her impending statements are anticipated to reflect her grievances, particularly her claim of betrayal by HYBE. The first press conference she held was on April 25, 2024, with little advance notice, marking a significant event in the entertainment industry, and she has continued to use press gatherings to vocalize her claims.

Min Hee-jin's press conferences have evolved into significant events that go beyond mere media announcements, reinforcing her political position within the industry. Amid her continuous conflicts with HYBE, she has effectively leveraged media outlets to assert her rights and garner public support. This ongoing feud appears to be escalating into an industry-wide battle rather than solely a personal dispute.

Her emotionally charged appeal in the first press conference starkly illustrated her standing within the industry and is likely to wield considerable influence over the unfolding developments. The reactions from the media, paired with her statements, are critical factors that may determine the trajectory of this ongoing situation.

The claim of 'betrayal' that Min Hee-jin has made extends beyond mere emotional reproach and can be interpreted as a direct challenge to corporate trustworthiness. Thus, this forthcoming press conference may serve as a crucial opportunity to clarify these complexities further.
