The KakaoTalk conversation between Hanni and Min Hee-jin consists of a series of private messages exchanged when Hanni reported the "Ignore Her" workplace bullying incident to Min Hee-jin, who was her boss at the time. These chats were made public during the injunction hearing on 2025-03-07, after HYBE and ADOR unlawfully extracted them from Min Hee-jin’s work laptop and released them without the consent of either party.
MHDHH was subsequently forced to include portions of these chats in their court submissions in order to respond.
The chat log below has been reconstructed using screenshots released by both ADOR and MHDHH. Wherever possible, we have arranged the messages in the correct order.
Please note:
We cannot guarantee complete accuracy, as ADOR’s screenshots are heavily edited, with missing timestamps and messages stitched out of sequence.
Messages have been numbered for ease of reference; however, this does not imply chronological order or that the full conversation is presented.
Additional leaked messages exist, but we have chosen not to include those with entirely erased timestamps, as their context cannot be reliably established.

3. Hanni: The four of them went into the styling room while I stayed in the hallway!!
4. Hanni: Since it was almost time to leave
PM 10:33
5. Hanni: But then about 5-10 minutes later...?
PM 10:34
6. Hanni: Those four came out of the styling room again, and I heard the door open, followed by their manager
7. Hanni: saying, Just pretend you don't know her and walk past.
PM 10:35
8. Hanni: I can't remember if those were the exact words, but it was something like that.
PM 10:36 (Partial timestamp visible)
9. Hanni: So when they passed by, the manager completely avoided looking at me, and one member just looked towards the manager while saying something like "Yes yes...I'll just pretend I don't know her"
PM 10:36
10. MHJ: While you were greeting them?
11. MHJ: Was the manager telling them not to accept your greeting
12. MHJ: ?
13. Hanni: "Another one gave an awkward greeting while avoiding my eyes, and the last one did greet me but seemed very hesitant"
14. Hanni [Reply to “Was the manager telling them not to accept your greeting”]: I'm not sure

PM 10:37
16. MHJ: [unknown - chat bubble cropped out]

18. MHJ: “Ignore her”
19. MHJ: This?
20. Hanni: Well...there's really no need for us to be like this with each other
PM 10:38
21. Hanni: Personally, it felt weird when the manager said something like that
PM 10:39
22. MHJ: The words were said loud enough to hear
23. MHJ: Then everyone ignored you?
24. Hanni: Yes... That's what they said as they were coming out after I heard the door open
25. MHJ: Did all the ILLIT members ignore you?
PM 11:04
26. Hanni: see i totally understand why the girls would be uncomfortable and awkward when they see us because there's been so much rivalry between our teams in the media and inside the company so i fully get that
(No Specific Timestamps Visible) - These messages appear to be stitched together in the screenshots with no clear timestamps, making it impossible to determine their exact timing or order:
27. Hanni: So rather than feeling bad, it was honestly... kind of funny,
28. Hanni: It just made me think once again, 'Ah, we're really working with such great people'
PM 11:18
29. Hanni: I really don't care about them at all
30. Hanni: So if you're worried about that, don't be!
