The court said that their contracts will be valid till 2029. Later, in December 2025, ADOR ended Danielle’s contract and revealed plans to sue her, a family member, and former CEO Min Hee-jin for a large sum of money. The other members are handling things in their own way, and some are returning to the agency.
