Despite being dissed by Min Hee-jin, CEO of ADOR, the group that produced the girl group NewJeans, ILLIT continues to cruise the charts.

Chairman Ng produced ILLIT's debut song "Magnetic." In a statement, CEO Min said, "ILLIT is in charge of hair and makeup, costumes, choreography, and photography.

There have been concerns about the damage caused. In this situation, the popularity of the debut song "Magnetic" remains unshakable. A source in the music industry said, "The right to top the music charts is a big part of the success of the song.
The songs on the list have a large fan base for the songs themselves, not the artists, so the issue is unlikely to cause a major drop in their rankings."

There has been a storm of negative comments about the group, with fans of other groups feeling like they've been caught up in a fight between the stronger members.
