NewJeans (뉴진스) (Alias: NJZ (엔제이지)) is a South Korean girl group under ADOR, a subsidiary of HYBE Corporation. The group is composed of five members: Minji (민지), Hanni (하니), Danielle (다니엘), Haerin (해린) and Hyein (혜인). Mainly produced by Min Hee-jin, they are known for their 'girl next door' image and musical stylings reminiscent of the 1990s and 2000s. As of March 2025, they are on an indefinite hiatus, as they are currently undergoing legal trouble.

The group debuted on July 22, 2022, with the single "Attention", their first number-one song on South Korea's Circle Digital Chart. It was followed shortly afterwards by two other singles, "Hype Boy" and "Cookie", with the former becoming the longest-running song on the Billboard Global 200 by a K-pop female act. The singles were all featured on their eponymous debut extended play (EP), released in August 2022. In January 2023, they released their first single album, OMG, to commercial success. It was accompanied by two singles, "Ditto" and "OMG". "Ditto" gained widespread popularity, becoming the longest-running number-one song on the Circle Digital Chart and the group's first entry on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart. Their second EP, Get Up, peaked at number one on the US Billboard 200 and sold over one million copies in South Korea. Its lead single, "Super Shy", became the group's highest-charting single on the Billboard Global 200 (number two), the US Billboard Hot 100, and the UK Singles Chart. NewJeans has received rookie awards and was featured in listicles such as Time's Next Generation Leaders and Forbes's Korea Power Celebrity 40. IFPI named NewJeans the eighth best-selling artist worldwide in 2023.

The group's name, NewJeans, has two meanings. It alludes to the idea that jeans are a timeless fashion item and the group's intention to carve a timeless image for themselves. The name is also a word play on the phrase "new genes", referring to the group ushering a new generation of pop music.

NewJeans as a group are currently going through legal trouble as a result of them attempting to unlawfully terminate their contracts with their agency, ADOR, due to alleged mistreatment and mismanagement. On March 21st, 2025, their appeal to rebrand themselves to "NJZ" was blocked by a court ruling. As a result, all the social media accounts attached to the name were to be closed. Just a few days later, they announced an indefinite hiatus while they figure out how to handle the current legal situation. There is currently no ETA to when or if they will be back-to-normal as of May 2025.
