Legal Conflict Intensifies: Belif랩 vs. Min Hee-jin Over Ailet Controversy
The legal conflict between Belif랩 and former Adore CEO Min Hee-jin is intensifying.
Min Hee-jin's side argues that the statements were an exercise of the right to defend.
The next trial session is scheduled for July 10.

[TV Daily Reporter Kim Hangil] Belif랩 and former Adore CEO Min Hee-jin clashed in court again over the statement regarding 'Ailet copying NewJeans.' During the sixth trial session at the Seoul Western District Court, the plaintiff’s request for witness testimony was denied, and document submissions and additional evidence investigations continued.

This legal dispute centers on whether the comparison between Ailet and NewJeans is simply an expression of opinion or falls under false statements. Min Hee-jin's side claims that the statement was merely an exercise of the right to defend, while Belif랩 counters that such remarks were part of a manipulated public opinion campaign. Given the urgency of the situation, the court must comprehensively review the evidence before the next date.
