NewJeans’ Minji turned 21 on May 7 and gave fans more than just a pretty selfie—she dropped a heartfelt letter that had Bunnies (the group’s fandom) reaching for tissues. With her group caught in legal drama with company ADOR, Minji opened up about missing her fans and shared how tough it’s been emotionally.
Happy birthday 😭😭😭

In her letter, Minji said she didn’t even realize her birthday was here until it hit. The idol expressed that she forgot due to her “busy life.” Still, she encouraged fans to live in the moment, writing, “Isn’t it too harsh to give up your current happiness for the sake of future happiness?” Talk about being wise!

Minji promised that NewJeans isn’t giving up, saying, “We’re not stopping here, and we won’t stop.” She even stopped by one of her fan-run birthday cafés while heading to a scheduled activity. Despite all the chaos, she’s reminding fans (and maybe herself) that the music and love are still worth fighting for, and that they’ll continue fighting for their name against ADOR.
