Former ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin's statement on receiving calls from BTS member V aka Kim Taehyung may have landed the latter in trouble. Reportedly, Min Hee Jin during a live broadcast claimed that BTS’s V frequently contacts her, even claiming that he sent her a text at dawn on her birthday, December 16. The date falls days after V began his military training on December 11. 2023. The statement led to debates on the internet on whether V received special privileges. Some also doubted the claims made by Hee Jin. 

Reportedly, a netizen also filed a complaint alleging that V used his mobile phone during his training days amounts to preferential treatment and a potential breach of military regulations. The complaint only escalated the matter as it drew much public attention towards the matter. It became so huge that the South Korean military issued an official statement following an investigation on the same.
