Min Hee-jin Responds to Court Battle with Hive Following KakaoTalk Release
Min Hee-jin reacts to court proceedings amid released KakaoTalk conversations.
Hive raises issues of trust regarding Min's claims.
The trial is expected to conclude on December 18.

The ongoing legal battle between Hive and former Adore CEO Min Hee-jin has intensified, especially after the release of recent KakaoTalk conversations. During the court hearings, Min defended her statement about 'taking over the company', insisting that the context was misunderstood. Hive has alleged that Min attempted to monopolize the company's benefits, leading them to assert the termination of the shareholder agreement. The court's proceedings are set to conclude on December 18.

The legal confrontation between Min Hee-jin and Hive transcends the mere issue of terminating the shareholder agreement, evolving into a matter of trust within the industry. With differing claims and explanations from both parties, the tension is palpable. Min's defense centers around the importance of individual creativity; however, any actions that undermine the company's competitiveness and trust cannot be justified, making the court's future decision highly anticipated.
