Former AOA star Kwon Mina is making waves again, but this time it’s not for her music. The singer-turned-dermatology counselor has announced her decision to leave her job after just a few months, leaving fans bewildered.
On August 26, Mina took to social media to update her followers with a casual snapshot, only to drop a bombshell. In her post, she revealed that she is no longer working at the dermatology clinic where she had landed a position earlier this year.
"Hi, it’s been a while, right? This was when I visited Yoonji last year, but now my hair is longer. I really want to go to Busan again soon. I’m no longer at the clinic. Please don’t send me packages," she wrote, keeping her message lighthearted despite the serious nature of her announcement.
Back in March, Mina had proudly shared that she earned two new certifications and had joined the clinic as a counseling manager. At that point, she expressed her promise to "do her best to provide benefits and services within my ability," showcasing her determination to succeed in her new career path.
Fans are now weighing in with mixed emotions—while some send heartfelt encouragement urging her to keep following her dreams, others can’t help but express concern over her ongoing career shifts since leaving AOA in 2019. Mina, who debuted with the girl group in 2012, garnered significant attention when she accused the former group leader Jimin of bullying, a scandal that ultimately led to Jimin’s exit from the group.
What lies ahead for Kwon Mina? As fans rally behind her, only time will tell if she will find a stable path after her tumultuous journey through the idol world.
