“Is the personal space of our beloved Minnie being invaded?” This question has been echoing among the fans of (G)I-DLE, as they express their growing concern and anger over the alleged inappropriate behavior of one of the group’s managers.
The manager, whose identity remains undisclosed, has been accused of needlessly hovering around Minnie, the Thai-born member of the popular K-pop group. Fans claim that he has been invading her personal space and interfering in her interactions with fans, even when they are clearly respecting her boundaries.

The issue came to light during a recent fansign event. Fans criticized him for persistently following Minnie around and even sitting next to her on stage at times. During a photo-taking session, he was seen standing behind her, a move that fans argue served no real purpose.
The situation escalated when Minnie stopped to sign autographs for fans. The manager was seen coming uncomfortably close to her. Fans were incensed to realize that these incidents kept piling up. During another fansign, his hand came dangerously close to her face.

In another instance, he tried stopping her from waving to fans who were at a far distance. He even touched her hand in the process.

The final straw came when Korean fans who had run into the (G)I-DLE members at the airport reported that he had been making personal comments about Minnie in front of the fans. The girls had allowed the cafe cashier to pick any one of their five cards to make payment for their food. They ended up picking Minnie’s card. Minnie had come to tell the fans about this matter, gabbing excitedly to the fans. The manager immediately came over and inserted himself into the conversation. According to fans present, he commented that he “knew this would happen as Minnie’s card is as pretty as her face.”
Fans have been calling for CUBE Entertainment, the agency that manages (G)I-DLE, to step up and do something about the manager. They urge the company to protect Minnie and the girls by removing him from the manager team. As the story unfolds, fans around the world are waiting for a response from CUBE Entertainment, hoping for swift action to ensure the safety and comfort of the group’s members.
