Min Hee Jin Makes Huge Move To Control HYBE’s Assets Legally

Former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin has taken another legal step in her ongoing dispute with HYBE, drawing major attention online.

On February 20, Min Hee Jin shared what appears to be a court filing receipt confirming an application for debt seizure and collection against HYBE.

The document, issued by the Seoul Western District Court, states that Min Hee Jin filed an application for electronic debt seizure and a collection order, officially marking the submission of the request. Debt seizure is a legal enforcement procedure that allows a creditor to secure or freeze funds owed by a debtor through the court.

The filing does not indicate a final ruling but confirms that Min Hee Jin has moved to secure payment through formal legal channels. The update quickly spread across online communities, with many interpreting the move as a significant escalation in the highly publicized conflict between Min Hee Jin and HYBE.

The filing comes amid a series of lawsuits and countersuits between Min Hee Jin and HYBE that have continued to unfold over the past year. In the latest development, the court ruled HYBE to pay Min ₩25.5 billion KRW (about $17.6 million USD). HYBE has contested with an appeal.
