SEOUL, Dec 30 — K-pop label ADOR has filed a compensation suit against a former member of megaband NewJeans, the firm said today, a day after announcing Danielle’s removal following a year-long dispute that stalled the group’s careers.

The move came after a court ruled in October that the NewJeans’s five members must honour their contracts with ADOR, whose parent company HYBE is also behind K-pop sensation BTS.
