Community reactions to B’s statement were mixed, with some supporting Min and others calling for an apology.

Employee B’s Statement Directly Targets CEO Min Heejin

Min Heejin, CEO of ADOR, denied allegations that she attempted to cover up a sexual harassment incident within the company. In response, the involved employee, referred to as B, issued a statement on August 9th. B stated that Min Heejin mentioned her as “employee B” in a public explanation. B accused Min of siding solely with the alleged perpetrator, an executive known as A, and of verbally abusing and mistreating subordinates, leaving them in a state of distress. Min, however, claimed she remained neutral as a CEO. She also insisted that her harsh words were not directed at B and that the KakaoTalk messages were edited. B said she could no longer tolerate the numerous lies told by Min Heejin, which led her to write the statement.

B’s Statement and Community Reaction

When B’s statement surfaced on the Korean community forum theqoo, it received numerous comments. Theqoo, known for its support of Min Heejin, saw mixed reactions. Many users questioned the authenticity of B’s statement, as it lacked evidence to verify her identity. There were also concerns about blindly trusting posts from anonymous social media accounts.

Allegations of Injustice and Calls for Apology

Some community members criticized Min Heejin for publicly revealing conversations with a former employee without consent. While Min claimed she did this to clarify misunderstandings, B reportedly felt outraged. Many theqoo members believed Min Heejin owed B an apology for her actions. The idea that Min replicated the mistreatment she faced at HYBE was a common sentiment.

Divided Opinions on Min Heejin Within the Community

The community remains divided over the allegations. Some theqoo users believe Min Heejin exploited her position for deliberate harassment. Although the forum generally leans towards supporting women, especially those seen as victims, there was no unanimous agreement. On the other hand, supporters of Min argued that B’s timing in raising these allegations seemed to align with ongoing tensions between Min and HYBE. They suggested waiting for more clarity before making judgments, as the facts surrounding the ADOR sexual harassment case are still unclear.

Min Heejin Defends Herself Against Sexual Harassment Allegations

Min Heejin has defended herself against allegations of ignoring a female employee’s sexual harassment claims and siding with the accused. The case, previously closed by HYBE’s HR committee, was brought back into the spotlight by Dispatch, leading to a divided public opinion.
