Min Hee-jin’s Statement “V Texted Me Early In The Morning” Sparks Falsehood Speculations; Ministry of Defense Addresses Favoritism Allegation

Min Hee-jin’s Claims Spark Controversy Over BTS V’s Military Communication

Recent statements made by Min Hee-jin regarding her relationship with BTS V have prompted a backlash, contradicting the Ministry of Defense’s response released on November 20. This controversy centers around a post titled “Min Hee-jin and BTS V Text Complaint Response,” which surfaced in an online community following her appearance on the program “Kim Young-dae’s School of Music” on October 29.

During the broadcast, Min recounted her interactions with V, stating, “V occasionally calls me from the military. It’s to the point where I ask, ‘Are you really in the military?’ He’s always so cheerful and lively. When I was going through a tough time, he called and asked, ‘Are you okay, sister?’ He even sent me a text message on my birthday early in the morning, and I was deeply touched by how kind and thoughtful he is.”

While her narrative aimed to highlight a close personal bond, it attracted scrutiny and raised questions regarding the veracity of her claims. Critics noted a significant inconsistency in the timeline: Min’s birthday is December 16, just five days after V, whose real name is Kim Tae-hyung, enlisted in the military on December 11. This discrepancy led some to wonder if he received preferential treatment that allowed him phone access during basic training.

One concerned netizen submitted a formal complaint to the Ministry of Defense, asserting, “This is a serious violation of military rules. I suspect that the superiors turned a blind eye to his phone use because he’s a famous K-pop idol.” The complaint emphasized that recruits are generally restricted from phone usage unless granted short access during designated weekend hours, making it implausible that V could have communicated so soon after enlisting.

In response to the growing uproar, the Ministry of Defense asserted that no privileges had been granted to V, reaffirming the standard protocols for recruits during their training period.

The official response from the Military Police Division 802 clarified that “At the Army Training Center where Kim Tae-hyung was stationed, recruits are permitted to use their phones for one hour on weekends and public holidays. Kim Tae-hyung adhered to these guidelines, using the phone during the designated times, which does not coincide with an early morning message.”

Furthermore, the Ministry highlighted, “There was no instance where Kim Tae-hyung was specially allowed to use his phone outside of regulation. Specific conversation details, including timings and content, cannot be disclosed due to the Personal Information Protection Act and the Protection of Communications Secrets Act.”

The fallout from this affair has sparked skepticism about Min Hee-jin’s version of events, leading many to believe her assertion of receiving an early birthday message from V may not be accurate.
