annoying sound on left rear

hello, I've been driving 2003 mini s for a week now.
I got it last week, and I'm hearing annoying noise from the back left.
I have no any technical idea about vehicle so I'm just assuming this sound coming from the brake pad..

here its the situation, i hear the sound with my windows open, it looks like coming from the tire, but the tire is a new condition.
it occurs when i go to 0mph-15mph and i can't hear it when i speed up.
also occurs when i make a right turn. (but not left why!?)

its like some deep scraping sound (i can't explain well sorry)

do you have an idea whether theres problem in brake pad, suspension, or tire balance??

thank you for your time.

Pull the left wheel and take a look-see. Then report what you see.
