In the clips circulating on social networks, Mina TWICE still performed normally but chose to cover half of her face, causing a part of the audience to question the reason.
Many viewers criticized Mina for "not letting fans see her face" and this is not appropriate on stage. Later, information shared said that Mina had just extracted her wisdom teeth, leading to swelling. Although she is in a recovery phase and uncomfortable, the female idol still continues her performance schedule. The use of a face cover is said to limit "unflattering" images and help her feel more confident during the performance.

Many fans spoke out to defend Mina, emphasizing that her still going on stage despite being in pain and swollen is commendable. Fans also believe that anyone who has had a wisdom tooth extraction understands how serious the swelling can be and that Mina covering her face is a reasonable choice to avoid being scrutinized for her appearance when her health is not stable.
Even some opinions commented that the thin layer of scarf makes Mina look more mysterious and creates a different visual effect on stage.
Mina was born in 1997, in Japan. With a beautiful, charming appearance, she is also one of the most famous members of the TWICE group. With 11 years of ballet experience, Mina always carries the gestures and figure of a professional ballet dancer. This also helps the female idol born in 1997 to perform the "difficult" dance moves smoothly.
In 2020, Mina had to temporarily withdraw from TWICE's activities due to anxiety disorder. After a period of active rest, Mina returned and appeared in the MV "Feel Special" with TWICE members.
