Investigation Launched into Allegations against Mino

In a dramatic turn of events, the police have officially launched an investigation into allegations of misconduct surrounding Song Mino, a member of the popular K-pop group WINNER. The probe arises from serious claims of manipulation regarding his military service duties, putting his recently granted discharge at risk.

Official Statement from Police

On December 26, the Mapo Police Station issued a statement confirming that Mino has been booked for violating the Military Service Act. This shocking news follows a request from the Military Manpower Administration just a few days earlier, seeking a thorough inquiry into his alleged inadequate work performance while serving.

Details of the Controversy

The controversies began brewing after Dispatch, a reputable South Korean media outlet, reported suspicions of Mino’s dereliction of duty as a social service worker. In March, he reportedly transferred his work location from the Mapo Facility Management Corporation to the Mapo Resident Convenience Facility. This abrupt change raised eyebrows and led to questions about his commitment to his responsibilities.

Military Manpower Administration Involvement

The Military Manpower Administration has now stepped into the spotlight following Dispatch's accusations, signaling its readiness to take action. Although Mino was discharged from military service on December 23, this discharge could be revoked depending on the outcomes of the ongoing police investigation. If found guilty of wrongdoing, he may be required to reenlist and serve the duration of any time he did not fulfill his duties properly.

Public Reaction and Ongoing Developments

Further complicating the situation, a YouTuber has recently uploaded a video claiming that Mino received preferential treatment during his service, adding fuel to the fire of public scrutiny. With military personnel reportedly expressing their views on the matter, the case is developing rapidly, leaving fans and the general public on edge.

Conclusion and Future Outlook

As this situation unfolds, many are left wondering: Could WINNER’s Mino be forced back into uniform? Stay tuned as we bring you the latest updates on this unfolding scandal!
