ADOR is facing fresh backlash after announcing a new update for NewJeans, just one day after a key court development in its lawsuit against Danielle.
On March 25, the agency confirmed that it will extend the group’s global fanclub membership. According to the Weverse notice, existing Bunnies Membership holders will automatically receive a 365-day extension, added to their remaining period as of 11 AM (KST).
The announcement’s timing has drawn scathing reactions from fans.

Fans have criticized ADOR for focusing on membership benefits while major issues remain unresolved. Many pointed out that Danielle is currently facing a lawsuit from her own agency, while Minji’s status remains unclear. There has also been no clear update regarding Hanni, Haerin, and Hyein.

Extended membership for access to: 1. Non-existent content 2. Content you plan on deleting or 3. Content you have already deleted.
Instead of giving an announcement about something nobody asked for, maybe give an update on Minji, or the rest of the members, or rather, focus on… pic.twitter.com/ZE7GB4ncGi

Korean fans, in particular, accused the agency of avoiding more important matters, arguing that contract disputes and the group’s future should take priority over membership-related notices. Others expressed frustration over what they see as months of silence and lack of direction.
Hey ADOR, you tried to change the lawsuit hearing date and got rejected! It’s been four months of playing mind games over whether members will rejoin, and you still haven’t made any proper announcement! No matter how little you think of the public or how crazy you think we are, there’s still a sense of priorities. Maybe think about what should come first before a membership extension notice?

소송 기일변경신청했지만 반려된 어도어야!
4개월째 멤버합류 간보기 기싸움 하느라 공지 안 내는 어도어야!
아무리 대중이 우습고 우리가 싸패같아도 일에는 경중을 따지는게 맞는 것 같아. 멤버십연장 공지보다 뭐가 먼저일지 생각 좀 해볼까? https://t.co/pQwdB2nWbj

You don’t even listen to fans who want all five members back, and instead you go ahead and file lawsuits. You have no new content to show, so you’re scraping together old footage filmed by former staff and repackaging it into behind-the-scenes clips or emotional edits. Now you’ve got nothing left and can’t even post a proper update. So why are you extending memberships? Don’t extend memberships, extend your lawsuits instead.

팬들이 5명이길 원한다는걸 듣지도 않고 소송이나 쳐 걸면서 멀 보여줄 컨텐츠도 한나도없이 전에 있던 직원들이 찍었던 컨텐츠 끌어모아 훔쳐서 비하인드나 눈물을 흘리면서 만들고 이제 더 할게 없어서 공지도 하나 못 올리는 주제에 먼 멤버쉽 연장이야 소송이나 연장 하지마라 https://t.co/GVRprO92SU

At the same time, some fans reacted with concern rather than anger. A growing number admitted they feel uneasy and fear the group’s comeback.

With legal issues ongoing and no clear roadmap for the group, uncertainty around NewJeans continues to grow.
