Court rules against K-pop group NewJeans in record label dispute
SEOUL — A South Korean court has ruled against chart-topping K-pop group NewJeans which had sought to cut ties with its record label Ador.The court said the band, which had renamed themselves NJZ and began organizing their own appearances, must not conduct any independent activities — from making music to signing advertising deals.Earlier last year, NewJeans said that they were leaving Ador, after accusing them of mistreatment. Ador subsequently sued to have NewJeans' contracts upheld and, after accusing the group of trying to sign independent deals without its approval, filed an injunction against them in January.The group has said that they will challenge Friday's decision.The court's ruling casts some uncertainty around the release of the group's new song, slated for...

Indian town’s abandoned European-style mansions are a throwback to its opulent past
SIDHPUR, India — The dusty highway leading to Sidhpur, in western India’s Gujarat state, winds through arid landscapes past roadside eateries and herds of lumbering camel, offering little hint of what the historic town holds.In the heart of Sidhpur lies a street lined with stately three- and four-story mansions, known as “havelis,” in a fading palette of rainbow pastel shades, from teal and baby pink to pistachio green. Known locally as Paris Galli, or Paris Street, it transports visitors to a European city with grand Neoclassical architecture and a harmonious melange of Art Deco, Baroque and hybrid Indian styles.Sidhpur is less than three hours’ drive from Gujarat’s capital Ahmedabad, but it remains under the radar of travelers and architecture enthusiasts. On the day of my...
