Understand the recent controversy involving Hanni, from NewJeans

Last week, a controversy involving Hannimember of the NewJeanshad repercussions on the internet, causing outrage among the Bunnies, the group’s fandom, who started demanding the company responsible for the formation, ADOR, for better management with the girl group.

But what happened?

It all started thanks to a live broadcast performed by the idol on November 21st, where, while talking to fans, Hanniwho is Australian, revealed that she wanted to take Korean classes again, but that her request was denied by the company “because they said I didn’t need them”, as revealed by the artist during the broadcast.

During the interaction, the star also commented that his last Korean class had taken place two years ago, generating even greater outrage among fans.

However, last Wednesday, 22nd, Hanni He made a point of clarifying the situation through the Phoning platform, where he stated that it was all just a misunderstanding.

“Bunnies!! What I said during the last broadcast, I think there was a misunderstanding. About a year ago, I mentioned to my manager, who left the company early, about how I wanted to go back to taking Korean classes and she responded very lightly right away, so I took it as a joke and also thought it was really funny. I just wanted to share a fun story with you, but I think there was a misunderstanding. This conversation didn’t reach my label or the CEO, as it was light. I am really sorry about that. It was never my intention for what I mentioned yesterday to become so big. I hope there is no misunderstanding and don’t worry about it!!”, said the artist in the publication.

After the pronouncement of HanniADOR also issued an official statement where, in addition to commenting on the subject related to Korean classes, it also clarified recent rumors about HyeinNewJeans maknae, reportedly got veneers on her teeth and dropped out of school.

Check out the full translation:

“Expensive,

In light of the various false information that circulated after Hanni’s recent live broadcast on Phoening, we would like to clarify the company’s position. While this may be a passing issue, we would still like to provide everyone with the full details in order to dispel any exaggerated claims.

Our goal is to address any concerns by sharing accurate facts and presenting a clear perspective of the company.

Regarding member education, ADOR has been hiring instructors and scheduling classes according to the needs of NewJeans members. We have been doing this continuously and until recently we had a separate language class for Hanni. This also applies to Korean language teaching. Academic matters and privacy-related matters are personal decisions of great importance to members, and the company never [sic] made decisions for them at our own discretion.

Hyein’s decision to take the high school equivalency exam and study at home was entirely made by her parents, and the rumor that Hyein had her teeth plated is not true. Hyein began dental treatment before joining ADOR as a trainee, with her parents’ consent. Furthermore, the treatment aimed to improve the safety of tooth alignment and, at the same time, preserve existing teeth as much as possible, which is clearly different from dental veneers. All of the information mentioned above refers to events that occurred before Hyein joined ADOR as a trainee, so we thoroughly fact-check each matter.

ADOR places extreme importance on the fact that NewJeans members are going through a significant phase of personal growth and learning that goes beyond their entertainment activities, encompassing all aspects of their daily lives. ADOR is making efforts to ensure that even the smallest skills required for entertainment activities are part of their learning process and therefore provides support to ensure that small to significant decisions in their work as well as in their personal lives are taken with care and consideration.

We also believe that fully supporting any decision they make is another important responsibility of ADOR.

As always, ADOR will fulfill its responsibilities with dedication and commitment to supporting NewJeans members. Therefore, we sincerely request that you avoid unfounded speculation and exaggerated interpretations regarding privacy issues regarding members.

Thanks”.
