๐ A Spectacular Career of Min Hee-jin from Past to Present
Min Hee-jin, who came from SM Entertainment, later moved to Big Hit (now HYBE) and was credited with overseeing the production of New Jeans, earning the title of ‘Goddess of Girl Group Production’. However, last year, she became embroiled in several controversies after leaving ADOR…
Just 11 months later, she established a new agency! (Is this a planned retaliation…? Or a new challenge…? ๐ง) The ongoing legal dispute with HYBE has also been a hot topic.
๐ Three Reasons Why ‘OK’ is Special
