NJZ (NewJeans) Announces Release Of New Content Amid Growing Legal Dispute
The growing desperation to see new NJZ (엔제이지) (formerly NewJeans/뉴진스) content racks Bunnies as whispers and rumours of the group's disbandment hang in the air following the ongoing legal battle between the group and its former company, ADOR. However, NJZ continue to surprise fans who are patiently waiting for their return. Yesterday (10th June 2025), NJZ announced on their official fan communication app, Phoning, that they will be releasing never-before-seen content on their YouTube channel. Dropping on 12th June 2025, details remain scarce; however, netizens speculate that it might be behind-the-scenes footage from past projects. With the group's indefinite hiatus looming over them amid legal battles with ADOR, which indefinitely bars the girl group from independent activities without the company's approval, fans were surprised by the announcement. There are also speculations of ADOR clickbaiting fans with old content to utilise the group's continuous support. Netizens gave mixed reactions, with most leaning towards boycotting ADOR over the announcement. According to users from the Korean entertainment community platform, Instiz, the release of content might just as well be old footage of NJZ from when they were filming past projects. Calls for a boycott over ADOR for releasing content to hype up fans despite the ban on activities are growing evident among Bunnies. With the ban on activities on NJZ, what do you think ADOR will release tomorrow? Are you boycotting ADOR?

Comeback Hints? NewJeans Set To Release Never-Before-Seen Content
Last Updated: The band shared that they will be dropping never-before-seen content on their official YouTube channel. K-pop girl group NewJeans has taken fans by surprise with a major update on their official fan communication app, Phoning. On June 10, the five-member group announced they'll be releasing new content soon, sparking speculation about a possible comeback. Phoning is an interactive platform that allows fans, affectionately called Bunnies, to connect directly with the band via livestreams, messages, photos, and calendar updates. It also gives fans exclusive access to behind-the-scenes content. In their recent post, NewJeans revealed that never-before-seen content will premiere on their official YouTube channel on June 12 at 7:00 p.m. KST. While specific details remain under wraps, fans suspect the release could include exclusive footage from the group's past filming sessions. As excitement builds, Bunnies are closely watching for any further hints about what might be coming next from the chart-topping band. The announcement led to a significant buzz among the fans as they gathered on social media to express excitement. A fan commented, 'I think this is unreleased behind-the-scenes content from an old episode." Another fan asked, 'Did they decide to return?" While someone else wrote, 'NewJeans return…" Various fans were seen raising questions about their label and parent company. Another one speculated, 'They probably filmed this before. ADOR will just do their work." Another fan commented, 'ADOR is good at work," while someone simply asked, 'Didn't HYBE make Phoning?" The announcement came amid the band's legal battle against ADOR, which led to their hiatus earlier this year. The dispute started last year when NewJeans made headlines after publicly announcing their departure from ADOR, alleging mistreatment and a lack of support from the label. As a response, ADOR, a subsidiary of Korean entertainment company HYBE, filed an injunction to prevent the group from leaving and accused them of attempting to sign unauthorised deals. Previously, the court ruled against the band and restrained them from pursuing any individual endeavours. At a recent hearing, the court suggested both parties settle things among themselves; however, NewJeans rejected the offer, stating that they no longer trust the label. This high-profile legal dispute brings more uncertainty about the band's return. First Published:
