On September 11, 2024, NewJeans shocked everyone by turning on a surprise livestream.
The livestream was hosted on a brand new YouTube account that was unaffiliated with their existing company channel.
The girls prefaced the livestream by reiterating that Min Hee Jin had not asked them to do this and that they had prepared this on their own.
