V and Jennie (right), who were rumored to be dating. Photo｜Star Today DBGroup BTS V (real name Kim Tae-hyung) and Black Pink Jennie (real name Kim Jenny) were caught up in dating rumors.
On the 22nd, photos of V and Jennie dating on Jeju Island were posted on various online communities and SNS. The author also uploaded a photo of a man and woman presumed to be V and Jennie in a car side by side.
The author said, “It’s a hot photo that was reported today. It may look alike, but the two top idols, especially female idols, who were filmed in Jeju Island recently broke up with a male OG idol member. It’s all covered,” he wrote.
Coincidentally, both Jennie and V’s recent visits to Jeju Island were posted on their respective Instagrams, so netizens are showing extraordinary interest in whether the two are really dating. Also, there is speculation that the fact that Jennie and V’s Instagram profiles were updated to ‘J’ and ‘V’, respectively, is a sign of the two’s dating.
However, other netizens are also hotly arguing over the authenticity of the dating rumors, such as analyzing the profile lines in the photos and raising the possibility that they are ordinary people, not V and Jennie.
Regarding the dating rumors, neither BTS’ agency Big Hit Music nor Jenny’s agency YG Entertainment have made a statement. However, since both sides have not made an official position on the members’ private lives, such as dating rumors, it is expected that it will be difficult to confirm the authenticity of this dating rumor.
Jennie was caught up in dating rumors with Big Bang’s G-Dragon last year. Even at that time, YG Entertainment did not make an official statement regarding the dating rumors, but the relationship between the two was known as an established fact.
However, as Jennie recently updated her Instagram account and unfollowed G-Dragon’s account, rumors of the two broke up.
Meanwhile, V will make a comeback with a new BTS album on June 10th.
