On July 3, former AOA member Mina first uploaded a series of posts where she revealed that an AOA member bullied her to the point of extreme thoughts.
Mina did not give a name in her first post, but when Jimin responded to Mina’s allegations and Mina finally revealed that the bully was in fact, Jimin, fans demanded for FNC Entertainment to handle the issue.
Early on the morning of July 4, Mina posted her final update on the situation, revealing Jimin apologized to her.
Afterwards, Jimin then posted her public apology on her official Instagram account…
…and soon after, Mina reacted to Jimin’s apology and even outed Jimin’s sexual history at AOA’s dorms:
Yesterday you said to me that you [apologized] because you wanted me to get back on the right path. That kind of person brings a man to the dorm and has sex with him? You should get on the right path first.

…especially with her choice of words in the last line:
Shin Jimin, you have so many blessings, how nice it must be with everything on your side. You won. I lost. In the end, I lost.

I love how she is speaking up but I‘m so worried. I don‘t think she‘s in a healthy mental state at all and is honestly going mad. I hope she has people standing by her side right now, keeping a good eye on her. You deserved better Mina <3

Fans are extremely concerned about Mina’s mental health, since she was bullied to the point of extreme thoughts and even tried to take her own life in the past.

As of this writing, Jimin has now withdrawn from the group. She has also left the industry. Other fans are also worried that something unfortunate may happen to Mina because of the current issue.
maybe I'm being paranoid but i think someone should fully guard mina now. jimin bullied her for 10 years and now she lost her beloved career, she might do something to mina. yeah I'm being paranoid but still, beware

FNC Entertainment is currently under fire for the “poor way” they handled Jimin’s bullying issue.
both jimin and fnc gave an apology but neither apologized to the person that actually ended up getting hurt because netizens worrying is apparently more important than mina’s wellbeing
