NewJeans fans are sharing their theory about the reason why Haerin and Hyein's return was announced separately from Minji, Hanni, and Danielle.
The announcement of NewJeans's full-group return to ADOR today was a rollercoaster, with Hyein and Haerin's return revealed hours before the other three members. While it was eventually announced that Minji, Hanni, and Danielle would also be rejoining ADOR, netizens were puzzled by the separation of members.
NewJeans fans have now shared their theory on why the members' return was announced separately. The new theory has gone viral in NewJeans fan communities, with non-fan netizens sharing their amused reactions to it instead. The theory states that ADOR intended to create internal conflict by making Minji, Hanni, and Danielle the target of public backlash first, as the delayed announcement of their return may have made it seem like they didn't intend to rejoin ADOR/weren't in agreement with Haerin and Hyein.
"All of the NewJeans members intended to return, but ADOR chose to bring out only 2 first so they would get cursed at for returning, and the other 3 would get cursed at for not returning. Only after that did they choose to announce that all 5 would return. This company has no sincerity or consideration for these girls"
"In the end, it was a full group return, but ADOR tried to make it look like there was internal division first by waiting 2 hours to announce the return of the other 3. It's really obvious"
The controversial theory quickly went viral among NewJeans fans, while netizens as a whole found the theory humorous and are currently sharing their disbelieving reactions.
"To think that they announced two members first just to cause internal division, is truly something only a lunatic obsessed with conspiracy theories would come up with"
"Fans, in times like this, you should just stay quiet"
"Hey, didn't they even read the members' statements? It wasn't discussed with ADOR first at all. The members just gave notice and released their statement. What the..."
"It's gotten so bad that I'm actually rooting for the company at this point"
"NewJeans fans really seem to have a knack for this kind of thing.."
"At this point I wish they just kept the trial going and didn't come back at all, it's annoying"
