Min Hee-jin, former CEO of Adore, took legal action, claiming that "Hive promoters have reduced the performance of the group Newzins." Former representative of

Min filed a complaint with Yongsan Police Station on the 25th against Hive Chief Public Relations Officer Park and Chief Public Relations Officer Cho on charges of professional malpractice. Former representative

Min said, "They are in a position to promote Newzins for commission from Ador, but they have caused serious damage to Ador and Newzins by reducing their performance rather than fulfilling their responsibilities."

In September, a Seoul newspaper reporter covering Hive appeared on CBS' "Kim Hyun-jung's News Show" and claimed that he was asked by Hive's publicist to revise an article about the performance of New Jeans Tokyo Dome.

The reporter sparked controversy when he revealed, "The publicist told a common-sense nonsense story that distorted and disparaged the artist's performance."

In response, Hive wrote, "The reporter in question sold 1.02 million albums locally alone." However, as of that time, about 50,000 copies were sold in Japan and more than 900,000 copies were sold in Korea, he explained, "I asked for correction because I could not leave the wrong information as it was."
