Crush on working with BTS's J-Hope, "He really worked hard without giving me time to go to the bathroom"
Crush praised the passion of BTS's J-Hope, who participated in his feature work.
Crush appeared on JTBC's "Music Universe K-909", which aired on September 24.
Crush, who first met and greeted BoA, who he had worked with three years ago, introduced the title song "Rush Hour", which was released a month after the cancellation.
Crush said, "It has fun elements in it, and it's a funky song, so I'm embarrassed in the middle, but there's a performance. BTS J-Hope featured in it".
He explained the process, "J-Hope came to my studio to play my full-length album, and I became very close to him. We shared our hardships and good things, and he said that there's a theme called 'Rush Hour', and he said that it would be very fun if you put it into this song his way and my way".
Crush released the working episode with "While I was being recorded by J-Hope, I felt that he wasn't a world star for nothing".
He added, "He really worked hard without giving me time to go to the bathroom. Passionately. So thank you so much".
Song Min Ho Faces Backlash Over Shirtless Party Pics While on Medical Leave—Fans Ask, "Where’s the Social Anxiety?"
WINNER's Song Min Ho is facing criticism after photos of him partying and traveling surfaced during his military social service period, where he cited social anxiety, panic disorder, and bipolar disorder as reasons for medical leave.
According to officials from the Mapo Resident Welfare Facility, Song Min Ho was assigned to a role limiting public interaction due to his conditions. A supervisor shared with Dispatch, "Song Min Ho has a fear of crowded places, so we placed him in a low-visibility area."
However, Dispatch revealed photos suggesting otherwise. The rapper was seen enjoying camping trips and parties in Gangwon-do, including a DJ party at a popular café in Goseong in August 2023. At the time, Song Min Ho was reportedly working for the Mapo Facility Management Corporation.
In the photos, Song Min Ho sported long hair, wore shorts, and appeared shirtless, showing off his tattoos. Notable ink included "Proper Posture" on his left shoulder blade, "Clear Mind" on his right, and "PLAY BOY" across his waist.
A partygoer told Dispatch, "He was drinking and smoking, fully enjoying the party. There were no signs of anxiety or discomfort."
This isn't the first time questions have been raised about Song Min Ho's social anxiety. Reports revealed he joined a running crew during his service and even completed a 20km marathon.
A member of the crew emailed Dispatch, saying, "We run together regularly. He’s been working hard on his fitness and lost a lot of weight."
An official from the welfare facility added, "He’s preparing for his return by losing weight and building his physique through personal training."
Despite these efforts, Song Min Ho is now under investigation for alleged incomplete service. On December 23, the Military Manpower Administration referred the case to the Mapo Police Station.
Authorities plan to review evidence, including CCTV footage, entry logs, game data, and testimonies, to determine whether he neglected his duties.
As fans and the public weigh in, Song Min Ho’s medical leave and his social activities continue to spark heated debate.
