Min Hee Jin appeared before the press once again on February 25 in Seoul, addressing the outcome of her first-trial lawsuit against HYBE.
But beyond the legal updates, it was her outfit that quickly became a hot topic after Korean media linked it to BTS‘s V.
The former ADOR CEO wore a black blazer layered over a white Celine T-shirt. The fashion choice immediately caught attention because the BTS star has been a global ambassador for the luxury brand for years.
V is widely considered the face of Celine.
He is often seen wearing the simple white Celine-branded Tee.
The timing raised eyebrows. During the first trial, private messages exchanged between Min Hee Jin and V were submitted as court evidence. According to reports, V had commented that even he thought certain plagiarism claims seemed “similar.”

After the messages became public, V clarified on social media that the conversation was private and that he had no intention of taking sides. He also expressed discomfort that it was used without his consent.

With that context, Min Hee Jin’s decision to wear Celine sparked speculation online, with some questioning whether the move was intentional or simply coincidental.
