The "New Jin's Crisis" that even spread to the parliamentary audit...Will it be an inflection point?

[Anchor]
The National Assembly's parliamentary audit this month will also address the "New Jinx incident," the biggest pending issue in the K-pop entertainment industry.

For Hani, a member who raised suspicions of bullying in the company, and Hyun, the head of the agency, the National Assembly has demanded to attend, attention is being paid to whether it will be an inflection point for the prolonged conflict.

Reporter Song Jae-in's report.

[Daniel / Group 'Newzins' (11th last month): We were just trying to achieve our dreams, what did we do wrong?]

Fans have been calling for a formal investigation into Hive through members of the National Assembly's Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee since the live broadcast of the group's "Newzins."

Specifically, the government audit asked the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to urge the investigation, but as a result, this issue will be addressed at the Environment and Labor Commission's parliamentary inspection.Hani, a member of the party, was adopted as a reference in order to examine whether the incident revealed during the live broadcast of

was a 'workplace harassment'.

[Hani / Group 'Newzins' (11th of last month): Other team members and one of their managers passed by. My manager said, "I ignore you."]

As it is not mandatory for the reference person to attend, Hani may not actually stand at the National Assembly.

However, Kim Joo-young, a witness, is different.

As there is even a punishment rule for witnesses who do not attend, Hive is also considering going out.In other words, CEO Kim should express his position on the case mentioned by

Hani, and a comprehensive inquiry is expected over the protection of artists and the guarantee of rights as well as individual facts.

This is the content that touches the core of the exclusive contract for Newzins.

[Kim Sung-hoon / Lawyer: (Exclusive contracts) In the past, exclusive obligations were centered until the return of investment, but recently, there is an obligation to contribute to or protect the growth and development of artists.]

If the members start legal disputes with the management in the future, we cannot rule out the possibility that each statement from the audit will serve as a basis for both sides.

Even if it does not go to a legal dispute, the impact on public opinion is inevitable as the current head of the agency is the first to take a public stance on the "Newzins incident."

This is why there are concerns that even if Audor re-appoints former CEO Min as an in-house director at the extraordinary shareholders' meeting on the 17th, the conflict could grow further due to the comprehensive audit of the labor and management committee on the 25th.
