Korean netizens are growing more and more fatigued by the ongoing ADOR/HYBE vs NewJeans/ Min Hee Jin feud, and they have recently expressed frustration towards the former ADOR CEO, mentioning ILLIT once again.
On September 11, Min appeared in person at the final hearing of her lawsuit against HYBE over a put option stock transaction, held at the Seoul Central District Court’s Civil Division 31 with Chief Judge Nam In Soo presiding. During the session, Min stated, “ILLIT increased its sales to break NewJeans’ records.”
On this day, Min Hee Jin mentioned ILLIT once again and explained, "If you push even a single album, it is still pushing," and added, "The reason it is called pushing is because albums are sent out to distributors to secure first-week sales records. If there is concern that another team will not be able to break a record within a week, then bulk buying is done, which is what we call pushing."
She then accused HYBE of pushing ILLIT to surpass NewJeans. She stated, "Even one album can take away another’s No.1. But in this case, it was not about 80,000 copies as a number. It is about how ILLIT’s sales suddenly surged on the final day of the first week, raising suspicions that they were driven to surpass NewJeans’ records."
In response, Korean netizens gathered in a popular online community to express their thoughts over Min Hee Jin's claims and questioned why she constantly mentioned ILLIT. Many have grown tired of Min Hee Jin's argument and commented:
"Stop bothering ILLIT."
"Since ILLIT’s public opinion has been improving lately, she must be so jealous she can’t stand it. Stop picking on those kids, you’re being so cruel. ILLIT fighting!"
"Min Hee Jin’s obsession with ILLIT is insane, seriously."
"Why is she constantly mentioning ILLIT?"
"Stop it already."
"If there’s evidence, is it really a problematic statement? If NewJeans didn’t do it but ILLIT did, then what?"
"I'm so tired of her. Enough already."
"What’s wrong with her."
"Records are always meant to be broken. Why torment them this much just to protect a record?"
"This is really pathetic."
"Pathological narcissism..."
"Stop dragging ILLIT down."
"You’re being way too harsh on those kids. Apologize."
"Why is she so vicious toward ILLIT?"
"ILLIT members are still so young. This must be really tough for them."
"Stop mentioning ILLIT, seriously."
"Why is she acting like this?"
"She’s getting worse and worse."
"What’s wrong with this woman? It’s exhausting to watch Min, NewJeans, and her stans."
