ADOR’s Min Hee Jin Allegedly Accused Bang Si Hyuk Of Copying Her For BTS

During the press conference, Min Hee Jin directly addressed these comments. She explained that her goal is to work “clean” and not use any tricks or methods when it comes to her job.

My goal while working is to be clean and not look for other tricks or methods. I always think of how far I can succeed by doing my job well. As someone who takes on challenges because of curiosity, I find distractions uncomfortable. So, it didn’t make sense to me that there were allegations about usurping management rights.

She then directly spoke about the claims she said that HYBE “copied” her with BTS. In her statement, she says HYBE has done everything to her advantage, but the things revealed are false. In particular, she specified the comments about BTS were not true.

Everyone who knows me knows that I have stocks and have received things. The things revealed by HYBE are only to their advantage. To me, they are all false. Why are they calculating things like this? It makes no sense. There are too many things like this. I have never said that ‘BTS copied me.’

When speaking on HYBE, she turned it into a question for the company, wondering why they were trying to make her into a “strange person” with their remarks.

Rather, I want to ask HYBE. How can they go so far as to do this? I want to ask why are they working so hard to make me into a strange person.
