K-pop girl group NewJeans temporarily halt entertainment activities

The K-pop girl group NewJeans who recently renamed themselves as NJZ have announced the temporary suspension of all entertainment activities.

NewJeans announced during their Sunday night performance at Hong Kong's 'ComplexCon' that they would pause all activities for a while, saying it a necessary decision.

Their agency, ADOR, which is in a contract dispute with the group expressed regret and hopes to communicate with the members soon.

On Friday, Seoul Central District Court accepted an injunction request filed by ADOR, and blocked the group from acting independently.
