ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin held a press conference on April 25, 2024, to address her current feud with HYBE. She made many claims that left netizens shocked.
During the press conference, Min Hee Jin talked about how Source Music and the debut of LE SSERAFIM allegedly postponed NewJeans’ debut. When she mentioned members, such as Sakura and Chaewon, netizens took note of how she referred to them.

also notice how min heejin doesnt use honorifics when mentioning sakura and chaewon? speaks volumes when she’s still addressing bsh formally

min heejin had a problem with sakura’s age and y’all want me to believe she’s not obsessed with minors ouuu she should’ve never mentioned that given the allegations she has

Many found issues with Min Hee Jin’s comments regarding trainees’ and artists’ ages. Previously, she was alleged to glorify pedophilia.
how are u worried about a 24 y/o debuting but has no problem with a 14 y/o debuting… yeah that says a lot about you
— amze♡ (@chaeriize) April 25, 2024
NO WAY MIN HEEJIN SAID SHE ONLY CHOSE MINJI FROM SOURCE MUSIC BECAUSE THE OTHER TRAINEE IS TOO OLD??? AND SHE SAID MINJI WAS SO PRETTY WHEN SHE WAS YOUNGER…..

Likewise, netizens were uncomfortable with many comments regarding NewJeans, who are all young. She exposed the members’ reactions to her feud with HYBE.
a 45 year old woman should not find comfort in girls as young as 16 if they are not your own children. this relationship is exploitative and should’ve remained professional if you really cared about them. https://t.co/Dz4tNMZU8x

a child showing up to their bosses house to comfort them is WEIRD! like this relationship is inappropriate and nobody can tell me otherwise https://t.co/EaJHy8h3IN

Many found Min Hee Jin’s comments about the members uncomfortable. Netizens were especially disturbed by what was said about Minji.

“Minji was very pretty when she was young. Much, much prettier than she is now”

Min Hee Jin also spoke about BTS. Previously, she allegedly claimed that HYBE chairman and founder Bang Si Hyuk (also known as Hitman Bang or Bang PD) copied her with BTS, although she has since denied saying this.

Yet, it’s her discussions with a shaman regarding BTS that raised eyebrows. ARMYs were stunned by this and how disrespectful she was.
Some Baby ARMYs were asking, so I should explain this part. When the shaman said “It’s not like they won gold medals”, she was refering to how if they had gotten gold medals at the Olympics or Asian Games, they would’ve received exemptions. Basically she was disrespecting BTS. https://t.co/OMkjp1VE8U

Despite Min Hee Jin’s belief that she would succeed in BTS’s absence, the group has only continued to be successful.

No because, the past 10 years, you can just imagine how many people that have actually, and literally prayed for BTS’s downfall? And how many times they failed?
— ৎ⁷୭ (@mygbebe) April 25, 2024
Bang Si Hyuk was also a topic of conversation. Netizens felt he wasn’t that bright, especially as he trusted Min Hee Jin.
I don’t think bang pd is a genius. I think he got lucky with bts because they’re hard working, talented, genuine and loyal people. He should get on his knees and thank his stars everyday.

Also fck BANG PD too. Hes so fucking stupid. Better clean this shit up before the real owners of this place comes home.

Min Hee Jin even exposed conversations she had with Bang Si Hyuk. She shared screenshots from their messaging.

What netizens took from these screenshots might not be what Min Hee Jin intended, though. Many theories have circulated online that Bang Si Hyuk was in love with Min Hee Jin.
I’m starting to believe that BangPd gave her all that privilege over BTS because he was in love with Min Heejin… I can’t think of something else pic.twitter.com/krHx59pm1Z

(my thoughts)
So bangpd was in love with her and then he was giving her all the power and the only thing she did was take advantage of him and betray him…. bangpd you idiot

Only blinding love could explain some things that were said and the odd choices made. For instance, HYBE allowed ADOR to use the higher floor, which is usually reserved for the highest executives/CEO.
He went like “I’m bang pd for others but I’m bang daddy for you” 😭😭
— ً (@gigglekook) April 25, 2024
She’s just a greedy liar cuz why are u unhappy with 100 BILLION from a label u don’t even own😭 plus that 100B was possible bec bang pd favored MHJ…
hybe even let ADOR use the highest floor in the building (in SK the CEO/highest executives use the top floor) pic.twitter.com/RbQkMWKPxI

Throughout the press conference, everyone couldn’t get over Min Hee Jin’s behavior. It was laced with curse words and rudeness.
Non Korean speaking people won’t understand but the way she speaks is really crazy she’s seriously so rude and full of herself LMAO

Netizens noticed that her team, including her lawyer, were clearly uncomfortable. Some joked that it’s no longer Min Hee Jin vs. HYBE but rather Min Hee Jin vs. her lawyer.
her whole team is internally screaming her to shut up😭 pic.twitter.com/TZVDcgolUE

Min Hee Jin’s plan seems to have backfired because, overall, the press conference exposed herself.
“Im going to report hybe for privacy infringement” while she is LIVE at a press conference showing private chats 😂😭 pic.twitter.com/FG2jbNoHCY

crying, lying, using abusive words, sharing private conversations with the artists’ parents, talking about doing witchcraft.. all in a press conference. This woman is CRAZY, how tf did she even become ceo

The two biggest takeaways for netizens after the press conference are: Don’t discuss personal business via DMs, as it can be exposed later and also be presented out of context. Neither Min Hee Jin nor Bang Si Hyuk are all that innocent.
Moral of the story:
