  1. I just hope after this any rumors of NJs getting shelved don’t happen. Gonna be praying for the best now.

  2. If they’re put on hiatus for 1.5 years, with the penalty on breaking the contract being the most recent past year’s income multiply by the remaining years on the contract, can they leverage this situation to leave HYBE for a cheap penalty payment?

    Next time one of the girls rides the elevator with Si-hyuk, she should say, “Anyeonghaseyo … Hello, is anyone in there? I said Anyeonghaseyo …” while waving her hand in front of his face.

    Just look at GFriend and Source. Wouldn’t put it past Hybe to dump the group. GFriend was doing well at the time of their disband.

    I need MHJ to win this court case. don’t care how stupid and annoying she is. HYBE and it’s CEOs are just as bad if not worse.
