In the ongoing contract dispute between K-pop group NewJeans and their label ADOR, a subsidiary of HYBE, fans have turned to YouTuber MrBeast for support following the termination of member Danielle Marsh’s contract.

ADOR ended Marsh’s contract on December 29 2025 and subsequently filed a lawsuit valued between $30 million and $33 million against her, a family member, and former CEO Min Hee-jin.

The legal dispute follows a series of clashes dating back to 2024, with previous court rulings largely upholding the label’s contractual terms.

Fans, known as Bunnies, have expressed concern over the group’s missing key vocalist and the uncertainty surrounding Marsh’s career.

Many posted pleas on TikTok, urging MrBeast to intervene by purchasing the company or assisting Marsh in some capacity. A post quoting these appeals accumulated nearly a million views, reflecting the intensity of fan interest.

MrBeast responded to the online calls, acknowledging the fans’ messages, although he has not taken further action.

Supporters believe his vast audience could bring significant visibility to the dispute, potentially influencing public perception and drawing attention to Marsh’s situation.

While ADOR and HYBE have yet to comment on MrBeast’s involvement, the dispute highlights ongoing tensions in the K-pop industry regarding artist contracts, rights, and management oversight.
