When New Jeans quit their record label two years ago, what followed was one of the most explosive controversies in K-pop history. Executives warned that if the group could walk away, the multibillion dollar K-pop industry might collapse.
K-pop has long been dogged by allegations of exploitation. Labels recruit children, put them through years of intensive training, then often bill them for those costs. Performers have described near-starvation diets and lingering debt, even while selling out stadiums.
The New York Times obtained the contracts that the NewJeans singers signed while they were between 14 to 17. The documents show unusually restrictive contracts, which stripped away child protection language, and how little has changed in the K-pop industry, even for one of the most successful groups of its time.

Democrats are now claiming their victories include a majority of all statehouse seats across the country.
More than 500 seats in state legislatures were flipped blue in Tuesday’s midterms, according to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, the arm of the party focused on state-level races.
Democrats have new trifectas — control of the governor’s office and both statehouse chambers — in at least Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. That puts the party in a powerful position to pass state laws and exert enormous influence on issues that directly affect day-to-day life, from health care coverage to transportation.

After a freeze in panda diplomacy between China and the U.S., giant pandas are back on display in Atlanta.
The last two pandas in Atlanta had left in 2024, joining a string of recent panda departures from the U.S. under the cloud of strained relations between the two countries. Finally, in September, an agreement was made with the China Wildlife Conservation Association, and Fu Shuang and Ping Ping, a female and male panda pair, were moved to Zoo Atlanta.
Visitors flocked to the zoo on Friday for the public introduction of the bears. Read more about the zoo’s updated panda exhibit at the link in our bio. Photos by @kendrickbrinson

The stunning wave of Republican defeats is already having an effect in Texas. Mayor John Whitmire of Houston said he was directing city police officers to limit their cooperation with ICE during traffic stops.
The change in how officers interact with immigration agents was a direct result of Tuesday’s election, Whitmire said. Greg Abbott lost his bid for re-election to what would have been a record fourth term as governor.

Elon Musk spent a record amount over two years to bend American politics to his will. He couldn’t.
During the midterm cycle, Musk spent nearly half a billion dollars, the most in any election period for a donor who wasn’t a candidate himself. He hoped to defend Republican control of Congress, but Democrats won large House and Senate majorities. Now he is all but certain to face investigatory scrutiny and financial pressure with newly empowered Democrats in control of Congress and top state offices in Texas, where he lives and operates many of his businesses.
In interviews, nearly 30 people with insight into Musk’s political operation recounted how he came to spend so much on the midterms, how tensions grew between his team and President Trump’s advisers, and how his varied and often last-ditch strategies fizzled.

Cornell faculty approved a resolution of no confidence in the school’s administration over its handling of rape allegations.
While largely symbolic, faculty members said that they believed the vote on Friday would serve as a rallying cry for those who wanted a new approach and new leadership to resolve a crisis that was sparked seven weeks ago, when a former student filed a lawsuit alleging she was gang raped at a fraternity house in 2024.
It passed by a vote of 75-50, with five abstentions and five members not voting, according to a copy of the results obtained by The New York Times. Read more about the vote at the link in our bio. Photo by @laurenpetracca

A younger, more diverse electorate than is typical in midterm elections helped drive Democrats’ decisive victory, along with gains among swing voters and support from some Republican voters.

Stephen Miller, the architect of President Trump’s mass deportation effort, will replace Susie Wiles as the White House chief of staff, President Trump announced.
Miller has worked for Trump since his first presidential campaign, served all four years in the White House during the president’s first term and has amassed immense power since Trump retook office. He has been the driving force behind Trump’s hardline immigration policy and his crackdown on liberal institutions.
In Trump’s Truth Social post, he said Wiles would be moving over to his political operation. Follow live updates about the change at the link in our bio. Photo by @haiyunjiang.

Pope Leo XIV on Friday embarked on a 12-day tour of Latin America. It's his first major trip since undergoing surgery after being diagnosed with lung cancer.
He will meet with dozens of politicians, diplomats and bishops as well as visit a prison, universities and facilities for the elderly and disabled. Perhaps the most closely watched aspects of the trip will be the pope’s health and stamina, and how he holds up under the intense schedule.

Around 90,000 immigrants have been deported from or fled South Africa since June, as anti-immigrant violence sweeps the country. Most of the immigrants who have left have been Malawian, according to the South African government.
To escape violent anti-immigrant protesters who were ransacking homes and businesses, many Malawians left all their belongings behind — furniture, clothes, appliances. In Malawi, local economies have been upended by the population increase and the decrease in remittances in a nation where roughly seven in 10 people live on less than $2.15 a day. Many families are struggling to eat.
