The Q4 2024 release schedule for HYBE was just revealed. But the plan does not include the much-anticipated complete album release of NewJeans. Fans were quite surprised by this absence because Min Hee Jin had previously hinted that the group will be releasing a new album in the fourth quarter of this year. NewJeans even disclosed that they were working on a complete album for Q4 2024 during their Tokyo Done fan meetup in March. Regretfully, it appears that this year's release of the group has been left out.
Min Hee Jin previously disclosed in an interview that NewJeans' next album has been delayed and might not be published as scheduled. This resulted from her being fired as ADOR's CEO.
It seems that NewJeans' entire album release has been postponed for this year, just as Min Hee Jin had expressed her worries. Disappointment was also expressed by Korean fans and internet users, who wrote:
"We were correct. They will be kept in storage.“
"This is so terrible!"
"I have been looking forward to NewJeans' full album!"
"This company is ruining the music industry."
"Everyone believed that HYBE would be openly storing NewJeans away."
