[theqoo] NEWJEANS "WE WON'T PAY THE PENALTY FEE AND WILL KEEP USING THE NAME "NEWJEANS" ... WE WILL KEEP ALL ADVERTISEMENTS"

On this day, NewJeans stated, "We saw the article about the penalty fee. We have not violated the exclusive contract. We are still doing our best in our activities. There is absolutely no reason why we should pay the penalty. Rather, Ador and HYBE are responsible for violating the contract."

They continued, "We may not be able to use the name 'NewJeans.' However, we have no intention of giving up that name. To some, it may just seem like a name or an issue of trademark rights. But for us, it is not such a simple matter."

Finally, they said, "We will continue with our scheduled activities. We will also proceed with the contracted advertisements. We are truly grateful to the advertisers. We don’t want to cause harm to others."
