The backlash grew stronger when it was alleged that his influencer girlfriend had accompanied him on the set of an official MONSTA X video shoot.Although he didn’t directly address any specific incident, fans widely understood the message as his response to the recent dating rumours and the controversy surrounding them.Idol opens up after months of silenceAfter staying quiet for months, Minhyuk finally broke his silence and spoke about the emotional toll the situation had taken on him. Insisting that the allegations were completely false, he got emotional as he spoke about how hard things had been.
He used the Bubble platform to express deep regret for disappointing fans, especially those who were looking forward to MONSTA X’s 10th anniversary celebrations.He began his apology by acknowledging how upset fans must be. “I sincerely apologize to MONBEBE who waited for our 10th anniversary,” he wrote. He admitted he had made a mistake by not speaking up earlier.‘I believe I deserve the criticism’Minhyuk stressed that he never intended to ignore the emotions and concerns of his fans, and admitted that his hesitation may have done more harm than good.“I believe I deserve the criticism and backlash from MONBEBE for my actions,” he continued. “I’m truly sorry for hurting you.”‘It’s becoming too much to bear’Minhyuk also opened up about his emotional state over the past three weeks, revealing the pain caused by false rumours and harsh remarks.He said he received dozens of online posts each day attacking him and accusing him of things he didn’t do. “It’s incredibly frustrating,” he wrote. “What’s worse is that the criticism and hateful comments have reached my family, and although I’ve tried to tell myself it’s part of the job, it’s becoming too much for me to bear.”Unsure of how to move forwardThe singer also shared the uncertainty he’s feeling and asked fans what would be best – should he distance himself for a while or continue to stay connected?He said he was especially hurt by the thought that his past love for fans might now seem fake.“I’ve thought hard about what I can do for Monbebes right now. I believed the best I could do was to communicate sincerely, show you how I’m practicing hard and working with the members to perform well, contribute ideas for our album, and focus on being the artist I want to be.
But even that seems to be misunderstood now. I’m not trying to justify myself or avoid blame. If you felt I was trying to, I’m sorry. I truly don’t know what actions I should take from here,” he wrote.‘Would it help if I stepped away?’He ended the message with more questions for his fans, showing how torn he feels about what to do next.“That’s why I want to know… Not just based on what I think in my head, but what Monbebes truly want. Would it help even a little if I stopped communicating for a while and stepped away, or would that just cause more misunderstanding and make things worse? Would it be better for me to stay by your side even if it leads to new misunderstandings?”Minhyuk, who made his debut with MONSTA X in 2015, resumed his activities last October after completing his mandatory military service.
