The reactions come after months of uncertainty surrounding NewJeans’ future following their dispute with ADOR and HYBE. While some fans believe the members’ behavior reflects discomfort with their current situation, others have pointed out that short promotional clips do not always show the full picture.
The new video has continued to fuel debate among fans about NewJeans’ current relationship with the company and what their future activities will look like.
