In a recent twist in the ongoing drama between HYBE and former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin, NewJeans' Danielle made a notable change to her Phoning app profile. Following BTS Jungkook's supportive Instagram posts on September 14, which were seen as a gesture of solidarity towards NewJeans, Danielle updated her status to a burst of colourful hearts, sparkles, and emojis including a blue cap and a pink heart with an arrow. The timing of this update, coupled with the choice of emojis, quickly captured fans' attention. Many speculated that Danielle's new profile was a subtle nod to Jungkook’s supportive posts.

The heart emojis seemed to mirror Jungkook’s own, which were interpreted as a sign of support for NewJeans. However, the blue cap emoji stirred up controversy. This particular emoji is closely linked to Min Hee Jin, who had worn a similar cap during a press conference after her fallout with HYBE became public knowledge.

The inclusion of the blue cap has sparked heated debate among fans. BIGHIT MUSIC had previously stated that Jungkook’s posts were intended to shield young artists from being entangled in disputes. Consequently, Danielle’s choice to use the blue cap has led some to believe she might be aligning with Min Hee Jin, which has ignited backlash from fans who see this as a potential slight towards Jungkook’s gesture of protection. Reactions have been mixed. Some fans are critical of Danielle for what they perceive as a questionable move, potentially showing support for Min Hee Jin after Jungkook’s protective stance. Others, however, sympathise with the young idols caught in this complex feud, recognising the added pressure on them amidst these ongoing controversies.

That's Something
jungkook showed support to them to stop adults from using them as shields and stop abusing artists by posting 5 hearts and her response is posting a hat next to the hearts to show support to the very same adult who use them as shields. they don’t deserve jungkook’s kindness https://t.co/aTWiAqGXdn
