In the midst of ongoing internal conflict within her agency, Danielle from NewJeans opened up about her personal struggles to her fans.

On May 19th, KST, Danielle reached out to fans through a morning broadcast on Phoning LIVE, sharing her recent experiences and challenges.

“To be honest, I haven’t been sleeping well these days. I’ve been trying various methods to help. I listen to music, take warm showers, and even asked a member if they could stay with me at night,” Danielle confessed, revealing her recent struggles.

Despite her difficulties, Danielle provided some reassurance to her fans, stating, “Fortunately, I slept really well last night.”

She continued to offer comfort, saying, “Are you having a hard time these days? Honestly, there’s a lot I don’t know and much I still find difficult to understand, so I may not be of much help. But I promise to listen to Bunnies’ (fan name) stories sincerely.”

Danielle concluded with a mature reflection, “Everything seems to happen for a reason. It might be tough now, but it will eventually pass, like a bad dream or a stormy day. And then, you won’t even remember how it all began. I think it’s just a matter of getting through it.”

Meanwhile, her agency, HYBE, and Min Hee-jin of ADOR are currently entangled in a legal battle over various issues, including allegations of a coup for control. This legal turmoil adds another layer of complexity to Danielle’s challenges, making her words of resilience and hope even more poignant.
