In a statement to the outlet, the female employee A demanded a sincere apology from Min Hee-jin and stated, as translated by Google:

Meanwhile, victim A also revealed that Min Hee-jin allegedly protected the perpetrators who reportedly s*xually harassed her.

The female employee, aka victim A, confessed in a statement to the South Korean media outlet JTBC on August 13, that she was harassed at the workplace every single day. Subsequently, the victim reported it because she did not want others to experience the same situation. Meanwhile, she stated that she came forward with the s*xual harrashment case due to her courage and the support everyone provided her.

The female employee accused the ADOR executive of allegedly making aggressive comments regarding work-related matters. She further disclosed that the executive allegedly s*xually harassed her by inviting the female employee with an advertiser where he passed inappropriate remarks.

Subsequently, the female employee, A, confessed that the investigation was not fair according to her, and she objected to the process of HYBE. However, CEO Min Hee-jin allegedly rejected A's recommendation to warn the executive. Additionally, in the email exchanged between HYBE's Human Resource team and ADOR CEO Min Hee-jin, the latter allegedly defended the executive and accused the female employee of retaliatory report as she was about to retire.

According to the outlet, Miss A also revealed through her social media how CEO Min Hee-jin edited her entire statement and conversation with her. She shared, as translated by Google:

"CEO Min Hee-jin has been insisting that her explanation and materials are true and that there should be no distortion or illegal activity, but she edited the entire context by editing and releasing my private KakaoTalk messages, making her words meaningless. I am very shocked and hurt by being used for false explanations by someone who knows better than anyone the pain I am going through right now."

She further requested Min Hee-jin and the executives to release a sincere apology and pleaded not to repeat the same mistake. She asked ADOR's CEO to rectify the facts that have been misrepresented and confirmed that she would take additional measures to unveil the truth.


In recent news, ADOR's Min Hee-jin refuted the accusations of covering up alleged s*xual harrasment cases and requested to refer the matter to HYBE LABELS.
