Singer NewJeans expressed hope for a domestic performance as a wish for next year during a radio broadcast on the 25th.
NewJeans appeared on CBS Radio's "Kim Hyun-jung's News Show" that morning. NewJeans member Hanni said, "I hope we can have our big stage in Korea next year," adding, "A big stage for me is one where I can pour out all of myself, rather than having an enormous crowd." Hanni also noted, "I would love to perform in Korea as we did at the Tokyo Dome this year," adding, "Nothing is planned yet, but I hope it happens soon with Bunnies (NewJeans fandom)."
NewJeans pre-paid for 560 servings of food at a rally in Yeouido, Seoul, recently calling for the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol. Member Danielle said, "The weather is cold, and eating warm food can warm your heart and allow you to have a warm conversation with those next to you." Haein added, "I prepared this so other fans can also enjoy it," noting, "The Bunnies loved it." NewJeans sang "O Holy Night" in celebration of Christmas. Hanni performed the solo song "Darling Darling" and was brought to tears.
NewJeans announced on the 28th of last month that they are terminating their exclusive contract with ADOR. ADOR filed a lawsuit claiming the contract remains valid. NewJeans appeared without using the group name, instead identifying by member names (Hanni, Minji, Danielle, Haerin, Haein). They did not directly mention the contract dispute. However, Haerin stated, "There were various incidents, and we have grown through them."
