Former AOA Member Mina Apologizes For The “Disturbing Posts” And Shares Final Update On Jimin
Content Warning
Following her series of Instagram posts exposing the past decade of AOA‘s Jimin allegedly bullying her, former AOA member Mina shared another update…
… explaining that she and Jimin came face to face to talk.
A couple hours ago, all the members and managers showed up at my door. We sat down and talked.

In the post, Mina first apologized for the “disturbing posts” and assured her fans that she is okay.
I had a lot of people come see me at my place. I’m sorry for making everyone worry.
— Mina
Then, Mina shared, “Jimin came to see [her] at home.”
I kept telling her and after a while, Jimin began apologizing over and over again. So… she said sorry and I accepted her apology. I let her leave. The other members and I talked a bit more. I promised them that I’ll work on getting better and that I won’t make any bad decisions.

Though Mina recalled Jimin being upset at first, she added that “Jimin apologized” eventually.
I know I still don’t see Jimin in a good way — even in this post. I admit it. I don’t even really remember her apologizing. I can only replay her showing up at my door angry. But like I said, I’m so angry that I can’t help this… I can’t change my mind that quickly. But I’ll try. I said I would.

Mina promised her fans that she’ll continue getting professional help and working on recovering from her traumatic past.
I’m going to calm down and get professional help. I’m going to try harder. And I’ll never cause such a disturbance again. I’m really sorry. I’m sorry. I’m going to work on becoming better each day. I know I made things difficult for a lot of people today…

Read the full translation below:
First of all, I would like to apologize for being unable to control my emotions and causing a lot of ruckus today. I know I’ve caused trouble for a lot of people and I’m sorry… And I’m sure there has been a lot of press coverage on this… but I know some people might not have wanted to know all the disturbing details. I had a lot of people come see me at my place. I’m sorry for making everyone worry. I’m a celebrity after all — and so some of the things I said and did should not have been said and done. I’m really sorry.
A couple hours ago, all the members and managers showed up at my door. We sat down and talked. At first, I was really flustered because Jimin came upset. I asked her if she came to apologize or to get mad at me. We argued some more. Jimin kept asking for a knife, saying things like “Would everything be resolved if I disappeared?” and so on. But we ended up sitting down and talking.
She kept telling me that she doesn’t remember. I told her everything I remember. Of course, I wasn’t in my right mind then so I don’t remember the details. But I looked her in the eyes and explained what she did or didn’t do to me. She couldn’t remember. It turned out Jimin thought we made up at her father’s funeral. I get it, if she really doesn’t remember what she did to me — but apologized to me anyway, I guess she could have thought that everything was resolved.
But it was at a funeral. I went there to show my respect and be there for her at least on that day. How does one day resolve 11 years of pain? Plus, we didn’t talk about what happened at all. How could we talk about something like this at a place like that? So on that day, I focused on consoling her. The next day, I was back to being me. I can’t fix what’s broken overnight.
Anyway, I kept telling her and after a while, Jimin began apologizing over and over again. So… she said sorry and I accepted her apology. I let her leave. The other members and I talked a bit more. I promised them that I’ll work on getting better and that I won’t make any bad decisions. I’m sure the two fathers are looking down on us now.
I mean, I can’t write lies… so, to be honest, when Jimin showed up at my door… I didn’t think she felt guilty at all. But she kept saying sorry… Yes, I heard her… But hm. I really don’t know how to explain this. Honestly, I didn’t see a person who felt genuinely sorry. But I could be biased because I’m so angry at her. I could’ve been trying to see the worst in her. She could’ve meant it, so I don’t want to assume. Anyway, I’d like to wrap up my story.
I’m going to calm down and get professional help. I’m going to try harder. And I’ll never cause such a disturbance again. I’m really sorry. I’m sorry. I’m going to work on becoming better each day. I know I made things difficult for a lot of people today, I sincerely apologize……
And I know I still don’t see Jimin in a good way — even in this post. I admit it. I don’t even really remember her apologizing. I can only replay her showing up at my door angry. But like I said, I’m so angry that I can’t help this… I can’t change my mind that quickly. But I’ll try. I said I would… I’m not going to talk about this again. I’m not going to post about it anymore, I won’t ramble on like this either… And I don’t even know how to write eloquently so I don’t know if I’ve been making any sense. But anyway, I’m really sorry.
