Popular Debut Reality Show Contestant Gets Caught Smoking Underaged
Former HYBE trainee and double reality show contestant Kim Jeong Min was recently called out on X for smoking underaged. The aspiring hopeful competed on both LOUD and Project 7, failing to make it to debut both times.
A fan who saw him on the streets discovered that he was smoking a vape.
He took a couple of puffs within the short few seconds of the video.
The fan disappointedly quipped that if he was not smoking underaged, it must mean that he faked his profile age.
얘들아 프젝 김정민 나이 속였나본데…?
07인데 전담을 어케 펴 나이 속였나봐 pic.twitter.com/gLUvqFYQub— 뚀뚀 (@DDYODDYONIM) April 9, 2025
Seems like Project 7‘s Kim Jeong Min faked his age? How can he smoke a vape when he’s born in 2007? He must’ve faked his age.

Having been born in 2007, this would make him a year under the legal age in South Korea as of 2025. Kim Jeong Min trained at KOZ Entertainment with HYBE until 2023, before moving to Hi-Hat Entertainment.
