Kwon Mina, on March 8, shared a series of photos on her Instagram, hinting at her latest venture. The caption reads, "It's really opening now. Please show a lot of interest and look for Manager Kwon Mina."

Netizens flooded in with supportive messages, expressing wishes for her success and happiness. Comments like "I hope things go well for you," "I wish you happiness," "I'll definitely visit when the clinic opens," and "Getting a consultation from you would be amazing," filled the feed, along with cheers of "Kwon Mina, fighting!"
Kwon Mina rose to fame in 2012 as part of the girl group AOA, where she showcased her talents as a sub-vocalist and lead dancer, contributing significantly to the group’s achievements with hit songs.
After departing AOA in 2019, Kwon Mina ventured into acting. However, in 2020, she made headlines by revealing instances of verbal and physical abuse she faced from the then-leader Jimin, also accusing other group members of turning a blind eye to the situation, igniting a major controversy.
In the wake of this turmoil, Kwon Mina took a hiatus from the entertainment world. Nonetheless, she remained connected with her fans, sharing updates on her personal life through her social media platforms.
