Currently, the 5 members of NewJeans are still dealing with exclusive contract disputes against their agency, ADOR and HYBE. Not only that but one of the members, Hanni, is reportedly facing some urgent issues related to her visa.
While navigating this situation, they’ve been focusing on individual activities and using their real names instead of going by “NewJeans” as a group. This action has received backlash from most industry unions.
Therefore, it was quite unexpected when host Kim Hyun Jung decided to introduce the members by their real names when announcing their upcoming appearance.
Is It REALLY A Big Deal?
If you’re unfamiliar with this program, the show is actually quite a big deal in South Korea. And no, this is not those hilarious variety shows like “Knowing Bros” or entertainment podcasts like “IU’s Palette.”
This show is one of those serious programs famous for discussing current affairs and interviewing influential figures. So, yes, you may rarely find Kpop idols appearing on this show.
But that’s what makes it interesting.
NewJeans Christmas special on the news show exceeds their status as a mere Kpop idol. Instead, the group proves its popularity as Korea’s cultural icon with worldwide reach and influence.
This Christmas special also becomes an opportunity for NewJeans to remind fans of their talent and charm.
During the holiday season, people are drawn to heartfelt stories and comforting performances. This performance will then shift the public’s focus away from the ongoing dispute between NewJeans and ADOR.
So, yes. The Christmas special show is quite a big deal. For fans, it shows that despite their challenges, NewJeans continues to thrive and stay in demand. And for the investors, it reflects the group’s marketability, resilience, and long-lasting brand reputation.
After all, not everyone can secure high-profile appearances on respected platforms like “Kim Hyun Jung’s News Show.” Don’t you think so too?
