NewJeans members are gradually re-engaging with public activities after a period of legal disputes and a hiatus, indicating a potential shift towards resuming group promotions. This movement is seen as a positive development following the complexities surrounding their agency and past conflicts, bringing the members back into the public eye.
Haerin recently made her first official public appearance in approximately 18 months at a luxury beauty brand event, where she introduced herself as "NewJeans Haerin." Prior to this, in July, four members—Minji, Hanni, Haerin, and Hyein—appeared together in content celebrating NewJeans' 4th debut anniversary. In contrast, Danielle has launched a personal YouTube channel, with ADOR claiming she pursued separate activities, including potential collaborations with American artists, despite court injunctions, a point of ongoing legal contention.
Local bloggers express that fans are welcoming these public appearances as significant signals of the group's return, viewing Haerin's event as part of a larger trend for NewJeans. While these steps suggest a move towards normalcy, they also caution that a complete return to full group activities, such as new albums and stage performances, is not yet confirmed, particularly given the distinct path Danielle is currently taking.
