According to Dispatch, Min Hee Jin and shaman K are actively discussing plans to debut NewJeans in spring 2021. Hee Jin spent more than 40 million won to consult shaman K.
Dispatch revealed a series of chat contents between NewJeans CEO, Min Hee Jin and shaman K on Tuesday (23/7). One part of the chat content that stole attention was when Hee Jin mocked HYBE's top official, Bang Si Hyuk, as a pig.
According to Dispatch, Hee Jin and shaman K are actively discussing plans to debut NewJeans in spring 2021. At that time, Hee Jin reportedly spent more than 40 million won to consult shaman K in March and April alone.
Hee Jin initially sent a message, "Today, I suddenly got a call from So Sung Jin (Source Music executive). Bang Si Hyuk took his hand off the girl group job haha." Shaman K replied to the message with, "April will show a huge explosion in your skills."
Hee Jin felt that his success was thanks to shaman K. "How can you do it suddenly? It's like a dream? Did you change his thinking? LOL," asked Hee Jin. The woman then teased Si Hyuk by saying, "Why did the pig suddenly let go?"
Hee Jin then wondered whether he should remain at Source Music. "The plan is in the works. But I keep thinking, do I really have to do it here? I think I can make other investments. Use Bang Si Hyuk's money.
Source Music will tell me to do what I want," he said. Shaman K confirmed that Hee Jin had to invest using Si Hyuk's money. Hee Jin was increasingly enthusiastic about creating his own agency. "Oh, I want that to happen. This girl group will be under my label name. I beat So Sung Jin," wrote the woman.
Hee Jin then questions whether she should continue to be on Si Hyuk's side. "I'm on President Kim's side, but should I be on Bang Si Hyuk's side?" Hee Jin asked. "They are 5 birds in one flock," answered shaman K.
Shaman K advises Hee Jin to remove President Kim from Si Hyuk's company. "Without guidance, it will be difficult," answered Hee Jin, feeling doubtful. However, the shaman answered, "Everything will happen in three years."
Min Hee Jin also spoke with shaman K about how he plans to step down from the CBO position at HYBE in July 2021, but will remain as an advisor. His plan was to set up his own company and receive 30 percent of the investment money from Big Hit, 30 percent from Kakao, and the rest would be his own money. (wk/charity)
