Jung Jiwoo, the older sister of BTS' J-Hope, announced she's closing down her fashion brand business.

On the 30th, Jung Jiwoo shared the news on her personal account, saying, "I have some heavy news to share. As I face the fast-changing market trends and the practical challenges of running a brand, there were endless trials and errors. After a long thought, I have decided to end the journey of my brand Charmeeze at this point."

She continued, "Charmeeze is a brand I genuinely ran for over two years, putting in 10 years of my experience and taste in fashion. As I communicate through the language of clothing and showcasing various styles, I know how precious and meaningful this long time to me. It was extremely difficult to make this decision. That's why I have so many mixed feelings and great regret."

[+29][-1] Is this person a celebrity?

[+21][-0] Isn’t Lee Yikyung going to sue that woman?? That's surprisingㅎ She harassed him so much, yet he’s just letting it goㅎ

Moon Gabi shares uncensored photos of her son with Jung Woosung ... His tall height, like his father, draws attention

 








Moon Gabi shared pictures of her son with Jung Woosung outside of marriage.

On the 30th, Moon Gabi shared photos on her personal social media account showing her daily life with her son, whom she had with Jung Woosung. The photos show Moon Gabi and her son walking along the beach and visiting traditional Korean houses. Her son seems to have grown quite a bit. They look relaxed while enjoying their walk, drawing a lot of attention.

Previously, Moon Gabi had publicly announced that she gave birth to a son on her social media account. It was later revealed that the father of that child is Jung Woosung, shocking the public. At the time, Jung Woosung's agency, Artist Company, confirmed the news, saying, "The child revealed by Moon Gabi on social media is indeed Jung Woosung's biological son. Both sides are currently discussing the best approach to raise the child. Jung Woosung will take full responsibility as a father."

Shortly after the news, Jung Woosung issued an apology on stage at the Blue Dragon Film Awards, saying, "I sincerely apologize for causing concern and disappointment to everyone who has sent me love and support. I will take all the criticism upon myself. As a father, I will fulfill my responsibilities until the end."

Since then, Jung Woosung has reportedly registered his marriage with his longtime non-celebrity girlfriend, and they recently became legally married.

[+238][-9] They look happy. Grow up well, little one.

[+186][-27] The child is truly pitiful.

[+42][-4] What a heartwarming sight to see~~ As long as you have your child, nothing else matters, right? From what I've experienced, I realized that husbands are not really necessary. Fighting~~

[+35][-2] I wonder what Jung Woosung thinks when he sees these photos being made public.

[+33][-4] She’s raising him beautifully. Even if he takes after his mom, he’ll have a unique and handsome charm.

[+26][-2] It's true that these pictures are uncensored, but... The reporter's playing word games here.

I think this whole NewJeans situation is a small-scale example that shows the structural problems in Korean society

I think this whole NewJeans situation is a small-scale example that shows the structural problems in Korean society

Forcing the girls to return to a company where trust is completely broken and telling them to just finish their contract period is too violent and suffocating.

I believe NewJeans has the right to leave HYBE and be free.

Decades from now, when Korean society looks back on this day, people will clearly realize how all this unfairness against NewJeans was based on outdated values, and they will deeply feel ashamed.

It's disgusting how so many people seem to enjoy 'disciplining' these young girls under the guise of 'teaching them a lesson.' 

Min Heejin, who reportedly hires 7 lawyers to sue an ordinary female employee over a workplace harassment issue, represents yet another structural problems in Korean society. 

theqoo

-Is a contract a joke? What even is the cause of the broken trust?

-Emotions don't solve anything.

-...? Do you think NewJeans would be treated any differently in another country? Legally, they'd probably face even worse consequences. They would probably have to pay more compensation.

-That is exactly what you call a contract...

-Do you think this only happened because they're young girls?? Things escalated this far and you think this only happened because they're young...??

-What do you think is a contract then? If they don't want to return to that company, they should pay penalty fees then.

-Why sign a contract in the first place then?? Just make a pinky promise instead.

-How shameless... Why do you think contracts even exist in the first place?? They brought this upon themselves.

-What do you think the law is?? You can't break the law just by throwing a tantrum.

-That person must be a minor too.

-The result would've been exactly the same even if they're a boy groupㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Why do contracts exist? It exists to be followed.

-Where did things go wrong? Do they not understand how contracts work?

-Hang in there, NewJeans, I support you.

-Do they think Korea’s law and contracts are a joke?

-What are they even saying… do they not have a brain?

"Used NewJeans' parents to lead public opinion" ... Court strongly criticizes Min Heejin

NewJeans has lost the first trial in their exclusive contract dispute against their agency ADOR.

On the 30th, the Seoul Central District Court ruled that the contract remains valid in ADOR's 'lawsuit to confirm the validity of the exclusive contract' against NewJeans members.

Furthermore, the court stated that former CEO Min Heejin appeared to have been preparing for a public opinion war and a lawsuit with the goal of becoming independent from HYBE. This cannot be seen as an action to protect NewJeans.

In particular, the court strongly criticized former CEO Min Heejin, saying "She prepared for a public opinion war using NewJeans' parents as her shields."

The court pointed out, "Based on Min Heejin's KakaoTalk messages, she planned to spread the idea that 'HYBE mistreated NewJeans' by using NewJeans' parents, while she stayed behind and prepared for lawsuits. The court added, "This cannot be seen as an effort to protect NewJeans from ADOR's contract breach."

After the ruling today, NewJeans' legal team released a statement saying that they respect the court's decision, but it's impossible for the members to return to ADOR and continue normal activities since their trust has already completely broken down.

Previously, the court had dismissed all of NewJeans' objections and appeals. This means that the members could not work without ADOR's approval until the final judgment.

Also, in May, the court accepted ADOR's request for indirect compulsory enforcement, ruling that if NewJeans engages in independent activities without prior approval, each member would have to pay 1 billion KRW for every violation.

YTN

[+367][-28] They ended up looking like fools in the middle of all this.

[+350][-39] I expected the court result after reading all the past articles... The pressure from the articles pouring out every day is so intense that if they were regular people, it wouldn't be strange if they committed suicide. The reason I hope they return to ADOR is not about whether they will do well, but so they don’t get hurt anymore.

[+328][-96] Isn’t it strange how in this whole fight between Bang Sihyuk and Min Heejin, the adults completely got away without consequence?

[+72][-10] NewJeans lost the lawsuit. On the other hand, somewhere out there Min Heejin is excited about starting her new company. She made 5 billion KRW and that's it.

[+67][-5] In the end, they really did become the second Fifty Fifty.

[+59][-10] This is how scary gaslighting can be. The girls are still not free from it.

[+58]-21] ㅋㅋ Are you guys buzzers??? Do you think contracts are a joke?? The court ruled against them, it means they should stick to the contract. Do you think contracts are just some pinky promise??? Just stick to the contract.
