According to a tip-off to the Korean media on May 18, 2023, a military nurse at the 28th Infantry Division has been placed under suspicion of not only leaking multiple medicinal goods but also for leaving her post during work hours just to see BTS‘s Jin.

The insider reported that around 1.30pm in January, she took her own car for about 30 minutes to visit the 5th Infantry Division where Jin was stationed. It was noted that the nurse was on personal terms with another nurse at the 5th Infantry Division and planned the visit to approach Jin. She went to the 5th Infantry Division under the excuse of helping to provide vaccination.

On that day, she spent two hours at the 5th Infantry Division from 1.30pm to 3.30pm, vaccinating Jin with his 2nd round of vaccine against hemorrhagic fever. After she finished her time at the 5th Infantry Division, she even allegedly bragged about it after returning to her station, going around saying that “BTS’s Jin found it really painful.”

As she did not report the matter prior to leaving, it is considered that she left her station during work hours illegally. According to military law, leaving your station illegally may result in up to a year in jail or monetary fines.

As for the other suspicions of crime, it is reported that she was suspected of dispatching Tylenol in bulk to the 5th Infantry Division’s new recruit training division. According to the insider, a phone call between the nurse and her friend over at the 5th Infantry Division revealed that the nurse had promised to turn over the stock of Tylenol from the 28th Infantry Division to her friend, as the 5th Infantry Division was lacking in medicine. This is considered illegal as each division receives its own ration, and it is strictly monitored. Even soldiers with pre-existing medical conditions are not allowed to possess their own medicine and have to get it dispensed daily through the medical staff at the base.

The nurse herself denied the suspicions, claiming that “a request for collaborative work had come in during the process of greetings” and that she “had reported it before leaving.” She protested that “it would be crazy to leave her station illegally to go to another division, simply to fulfill her personal desires.”

The insider tip-off stated that the nurse had planned to make it appear as such by convincing people to corroborate her story. The insider insists on a strong sentence for the nurse as it is currently punishable to even ask Jin for an autograph, even if you were from the same base as him.

Jin is currently working at the 5th Infantry Division as an assistant trainer.
