Manager A of the group NewJeans filed a workplace harassment complaint with the Ministry of Employment and Labor today (10th) against ADOR CEO Kim Joo-young.

The details of A's complaint are:

  1. After luring them under the pretext of a business meeting, suddenly presented them with a suspension order and demanded immediate return of their laptop from home, then illegally detained them for about 3 hours until the laptop was returned, despite requests to leave work. (Violation of Labor Standards Act Article 7, Workplace Harassment)
  2. Demanded submission of personal mobile phone without any legal basis (Workplace Harassment)
  3. Despite all work-related materials being backed up online (company cloud) and only personal data remaining on the laptop, initiated an investigation claiming disciplinary action for formatting the laptop (Workplace Harassment)

In response, ADOR stated, "We have not received any notification from the relevant authority. We will sincerely cooperate once we receive notice of investigation."
