A viral social media post comparing photographs of BLACKPINK member Jennie and BTS member V dining in Paris has reignited rumors of a romantic relationship between the two K-pop idols, accumulating over 78,000 likes and 7 million views. The post alleged that V attended a CELINE event in May 2023 in Paris and that a subsequent Instagram post by Jennie from July 2023 from the same city featured matching caviar imagery, which fans interpreted as confirmation of the relationship. Separately, a Los Angeles restaurant posted Jennie's autograph on Instagram, claiming she dined there last November with V and other friends. The establishment later modified its original post to remove the claim that V had visited with Jennie, though it subsequently liked a comment implying the couple had dined together. The restaurant also posted that Jennie had visited twice, jokingly referring to her as a "regular customer." Dating rumors between Jennie and V first emerged in late 2021 when V unexpectedly followed Jennie's personal Instagram account, sparking public speculation. The claims intensified in May 2022 when photos allegedly showing the two on a date in Jeju Island circulated online. The persistence of these rumors reflects the intense scrutiny faced by K-pop idols regarding their personal lives and the role of social media in amplifying unverified claims. As of now, neither Jennie nor V or their agencies have confirmed or denied the relationship reports.
