NJZ Rebrands Amid Legal Disputes with ADOR

The K-pop girl group NewJeans has rebranded as NJZ following a turbulent split from their former label, ADOR, amid allegations of misconduct. This change comes as the group faces a legal battle with ADOR, which includes lawsuits and injunctions over contract validity and advertising restrictions. Despite the disputes, NJZ is looking forward to debuting their new name at ComplexCon Hong Kong in March 2025, where they will also release new music. The rebranding is seen as a fresh start, with the group aiming to shift focus back to their music and away from legal troubles. ADOR has expressed regret over the name change and remains committed to resolving the contractual issues. NJZ, consisting of members Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein, aims to present a bolder, more experimental image moving forward.
