They never seemed close tbh
Jealous of each other and their incomes

She's basically accusing Jimin without naming names. I don't wanna jump to any conclusions but things gonna get ugly.

christ... for ten years? i can't imagine how that must have felt for her having to deal with that and having to act as they get along in front of fans even though she was the victim of being bullied.

This is going to be bigger than T-ara.

AOA will not recover from this.

I can imagine why she might have done that. Stans usually do detective work really fast and I guess her DMs might have exploded so she wanted to defend herself. But it also brings attention to herself, so there's no good way to deal with it really. Atleast she's deleted it now.

Full translation of IG post:

Spoiler: Trigger Warning

I just really really want to disappear (t/n: probably the mildest way to put it) but I have to take care of my mother.. ah I’m going to get a lot of texts saying I’m brainless again you’re right I’m brainless and I didn’t learn anything correctly. I had to go out and make money because of my family’s situation. After my father passed away I cried once in the waiting room and this one unnie told me that the vibe of the room was depressing because of me and she told me to stop crying. I told her I was so scared because she started dragging me towards a closet in the waiting room.

When I think back to when my father didn’t have long to live, I still can’t believe her words, it’s like harassment? Or like an insult? But it’s okay it’s just a scar but since we ride in the same car I started taking sleeping pills and forced myself to sleep. I had to do our schedules/promotions properly but I could feel myself slowly breaking down.

Also, I’m fine if I don’t get acknowledged as an idol or actor. I’m really bad at those things. I’m lacking a lot. But when I was actively promoting, I was so happy and I did my best. I really loved my job and I never got stress once and I honestly didn’t want to leave AOA but after being bullied by a certain someone for ten years, to the point where I really wanted to go crazy and insult you.. I eventually quit AOA.

I was someone who really enjoyed promoting with the other members, but recently that unnie’s father passed away. I was so sad and it felt so weird since I understand how it feels.. When I went to the funeral hall, she started crying right when she saw me and she started apologizing to me. It felt so empty and my mind just crumbled down... it just emptied out and my feeling of resentment went away and everything became fine but I’m already too broken

Since I was scared, my hiatus… of course I expected it. I thought I could learn a lot of things and get treated for depression or panic attacks. But even during my hiatus a lot of things happened.. I’m honestly so exhausted. Those Netizens, right? Just like those internet comments, I myself don’t know who I am and I don’t know what kind of person I am. I hate seeing it and it’s so loud/annoying. Even if you don’t want to hear it, I wasn’t born because I wanted to be born, but I have a mouth and I have hands and now I can’t even control myself. I have to stay alive for my mother.. You don’t have to like me or give me any attention so can’t you just like… leave me alone? Because it’s all my fault.

So from what she says, it would be Jimin since her father passed away in April, and it seems they met at the funeral where Jimin apologized.

This is a lot to take in so I'm just gonna see how this progresses, AOA always had a weird group dynamic and the rumours of friction between Choa and Seolhyun so this wouldn't be totally out of left field but the 10 years part is a lot.

Holy Shit

 

[honeyfornomoney]

how did she even have the strength to put up with this...

 

[Darkseid]

She just posted cutting scars

Holy Shit

She's been posting worrying stuff for a while now, I think she's posted and deleted several similar stuff earlier too :(
It was clear she's depressed and not in a good place, this is just the first time she's spoken about bullying.

Can't find the trans source, sorry


Mina said that due to the fear of that unnie scolding her again she didn’t even go see her dad bc she’d cry from seeing the state he was in. Her dad kept searching for her and even wrote “where is my daughter” in his sketchbook and the nurse had to tell him “she’s working
she got to spend the last final moment with him but couldn’t keep visiting him as she kept watching out for what others would feel and if she’d get scolded again.(edited)
mina even confronted her and told her what she said scarred her and that unnie glared at her and replied “i didn’t think i was that much of a horrible bitch to say something like that” but another member had the courage to say “unnie did you say that”
mina said before she left she used drink and converse with all the members without the unnie but they “still don’t know (what happened?)” she ends it with “what is the reason you hate me?”

I love AOA and always admired Mina so this is hitting hard for me personally.
it’s not shocking that a lot of groups have this rivalry between each member’s and that bullying rumors are present for some ( like Secret had a ton for while). It’s upsetting to see this all unfold but I personally just hope that Mina will ho out stronger and will end up being happy
