HYBE has fired back at a New York Times report criticizing NewJeans' exclusive contract, insisting the deal had no problems and that the contracting party was Min Hee-jin, then CEO of ADOR. The company also defended its camera, school, and penalty-clause practices, and noted that Hanni, Haerin, and Hyein have returned to ADOR while Danielle remains in a civil lawsuit. Elsewhere, Marvel fans have plenty to cheer about as Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, and Kevin Feige head to Seoul to promote "Avengers: Doomsday," with Evans making his first Marvel-related Korea visit in eleven years. TWICE's Nayeon is also gearing up for her solo comeback with "NA-sty," teased by a mysterious intro film featuring her striking blue hair. Plus, ATEEZ's "Drip" becomes their first song to chart on the Billboard Global 200 in its debut week, and KOYKIDS sells more than 525,000 copies of their debut single in Japan.
