After Claiming ILLIT’s Label Plagiarized NewJeans, ADOR CEO Sued for Defamation by HYBE Imprint


NewJeans' label CEO was sued over her ILLIT plagiarism claims by HYBE imprint BELIFT LAB, which claims the girl group is facing "malicious attacks."

One of Min’s most widely discussed claims from the press conference was that BELIFT LAB “copied all the formulas that we had with NewJeans” for the recently launched ILLIT, including musical concept, fashion collaborations and more. The agency, which also houses boy band ENHYPEN, touched on the five members of ILLIT, noting that Yunah, Minju, Moka, Wonhee and Iroha “have been facing unjustified malicious attacks, ridicule, and slander,” adding that they “strongly urge these defamatory actions, ill-willed slander, the spreading of misinformation, and any form of personal attacks to stop.” It is important to note that claims of plagiarism should not be determined by an individual’s biased opinions but should instead be assessed through established legal standards and processes.
