Mina has further clarified rumors about AOA and Jimin with a handwritten letter.

On the 29th, Mina uploaded a handwritten 4-page letter on her Instagram and wrote, "First off, I'm really sorry. I want to take responsibility for my words. I said I would cut off Instagram for a while and take time to self reflect but I gave you another reason to be angry. There are a lot of different stories coming out and many people are asking me to explain so I want to explain everything as it is."

Mina then mentioned Jimin again writing, "I'm the victim of Shin Jimin's bullying not the perpetrator. I started life as trainee in March at the age of 17 and was handcuffed, cursed at and insulted for 10 years during my time as a trainee and member of AOA. If Jimin had treated all the members and people the same way she treated me, you would've said it was unfair too and said they were victims." She then explained about her father's death and considerations made with her schedule.

She also retorted to comments asking why she returned to SNS writing, "I wanted to correct comments that were saying "this was a made up story" and "a delusion" and that I had "schizophrenia" and it was all "nonsense" and "I was the perpetrator."

Regarding rumors she was bullied within the group, she wrote, "The word bullying was written by the reporters, not me. It's true I had a good relationship with the members especially Hyejeong and Yuna."

As to why she wrote Seolhyun's name in her will, she explained, "There's a reason for this. She was close to Jimin so it's not that strange that I did. I'll definitely tell you after some time passes."

She continued, "I'm really really really sorry for my excessive behavior and words that shouldn't have come out of my mouth. I'm sorry for making you angry at me. It was because it was so unfair. It was hard for me so I was angry and sad. I just want to clear up all the rumors."

"There are a lot of incidents that happened. The cause is definitely me but I just wanted to be honest about what I did wrong, exaggerated and the rumors. I just wanted to say this to the people who support and believe in me and for myself, and now I want to end it. I'm really sorry that I broke my promise about not getting on Instagram again.

Comments from Korean netizens:

  1. [+126, -0] The font is too hard to read so I gave up reading
  2. [+114, -2] Wow, she's provocatively mentioning Seolhyun again with zero evidence to support her claims...is this real life?
  3. [+71, -0] She tried to commit suicide again. Why can't she stop Instagram?
  4. [+53, -3] People don't really care, but it's hard to fight alone against the world.
  5. [+48, -2] Someone wrote in the comments of that post that rumors about Jimin and Yoo might be 100% true but the person they want to avoid is Mina...I quietly touched my heart.
  6. [+28, -8] She's a psychopath. Who writes in a handwriting like that with such long sentences. I have to take a breath each time I read a sentenceㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ. This is why there's no one left around her. If you become friends with her, next time you open your eyes she'll be dating your boyfriend..ㅋㅋ
  7. [+27, -0] Mina is honestly in a deep depression. Her suicides aren't meant to really kill herself but rather a show to get attention. Most people are depressed like her and attempt suicide do it by cutting their wrists so that they bleed a lot, but if you're unlucky you can bleed to death. I'm not wishing death on her but her actions just fit perfectly into what depressed people would do. She attempts suicide every time things don't go her way and when things die down, she comes back with more texts on SNS. It's always the same story about Jimin and Seolhyun too. She just needs someone to place the blame on. When someone starts doing self-harm like this, it's an indication that they need to get admitted to a psychiatric ward. She's already attempted suicide so many times so she might be unlucky next time and the situation gets dangerous or she bleeds out. I hope she can get proper treatment this time unless she really wants to die.
  8. [+26, -0] All I see are triangles and squares..
  9. [+21, -0] Why can't she quit Instagram?
