• K-Pop Fans Call Out Min Hee Jin Over Claims Of Spilling HYBE Artists’ Personal Info

    Min’s response to the allegations has been pretty vague. In the midst of a heated K-Pop industry showdown, Min Hee Jin — the big boss of ADOR and a HYBE subsidiary — finds herself in the hot seat over serious claims of mishandling artist info.

    After HYBE pointed fingers at her, Min has made some comments that kinda address the concerns but have left fans hungry for more clear-cut answers.

    The claims suggest that Min Hee Jin, along with deputies only known as CEOs “A” and “B,” spilled important business and personal info to outsiders like foreign investment advisors and private equity firms.

    This leak was reportedly part of a bigger plan to break away ADOR from HYBE and rally public support against the parent company by painting HYBE in a bad light.

    Korean media reports also hint that the leaked info included private details about artists under HYBE’s wing, potentially putting their public image and personal safety at risk.

    Reacting to the uproar, Min Hee Jin put out her own statement, naming ILLIT as the root cause of her ongoing beef with HYBE. In the statement, Min also kinda addresses the accusations against her.

    HYBE is trying to smear Min Hee Jin’s name with absurd claims of trying to rip off HYBE. How can safeguarding NewJeans’ cultural achievements be seen as hurting Ador’s profits and mean that Min Hee Jin is trying to snatch Ador’s executive rights?

    However, this statement hasn’t cut it for K-Pop fans, who are demanding a straight-up denial or admission regarding the data leakage accusations.

    Some fans even argue that Min is using the plagiarism issue to dodge addressing the main accusations against her.

  • Park Bo Gum secretly covered up a filming mistake to protect the staff, and fans are loving his kind heart once again

    Another story proving Park Bo Gum’s sweet personality is warming hearts online.

    On April 19, a behind-the-scenes story about the actor was shared by a space designer (called Mr. A) who worked on the Netflix drama When Life Gives You Tangerines. The video was uploaded to their YouTube channel, and it revealed how Park Bo Gum once helped hide a staff member’s mistake without anyone knowing.

    Mr. A explained that while filming a scene involving Park Bo Gum’s character, Yang Gwan Shik, they accidentally left their iPad in the shot. Since the drama is a historical one, modern devices like an iPad shouldn’t be seen in any scene.

    "Everything was so busy that day," Mr. A said. "I left my iPad next to Gwan Shik's jar without noticing, and we filmed like that. Even the director didn’t catch it and gave the OK."

    But it was Park Bo Gum who noticed—and instead of pointing fingers, he quietly saved the moment.

    "Gwan Shik suddenly told the director, 'I think my acting was a bit awkward, can we check the monitor one more time?'" Mr. A shared. "He said that just to protect me. He made it look like it was about his acting, not the iPad."

    After the scene was checked and the mistake was caught, Park Bo Gum returned the iPad with a smile and said, "No one noticed, don’t worry," while giving a wink.

    "Take responsibility for this, Park Bo Gum!" Mr. A joked, adding that three members of the art team saw everything and were touched by his kind gesture. "Two were men, and one of them was me. We still talk about it to this day."

    When Life Gives You Tangerines follows the love story of Ae Sun, a bold girl from Jeju, and Gwan Shik, a man who stays loyal to her through all four seasons of life. Because it's set in the past, the appearance of an iPad would have been a big mistake—but thanks to Park Bo Gum, it never became an issue.

    Fans are once again praising the actor for his humility and warm heart. Staff who worked on the drama have shared many similar stories, saying he was kind to everyone, both on and off the camera.
