Danielle is facing renewed scrutiny after her first public livestream since being notified of contract termination by ADOR, with some pointing to differing nuances between her Korean and English remarks.
On January 12th, Danielle opened a personal Instagram account and went live at 7 PM KST, marking her first direct outreach to fans amid an escalating legal dispute. Her legal team said the livestream was meant solely for fan communication and was “unrelated to the lawsuit.”
The broadcast quickly drew around 50,000 viewers. Visibly emotional, Danielle opened with, “Hi, Bunnies. I’m already tearing up,” and went on to say. “It’s been a very long time. Saying ‘thank you for waiting’ doesn’t feel like enough. You stayed right there. That warmth lasts for a long time.” She added that the experience had changed how she views family and the world, and spoke fondly of memories shared with fans on stage.
