Following dating rumors, rumors of BTS's V (28, real name Kim Taehyung) and Blackpink's Jennie (27, real name Kim Jennie) broke up.

On the 6th, a media outlet reported, citing an entertainment insider, that V, who is about to enlist in the military, ended his romantic relationship with Jenny. In relation to this, V's agency Big Hit Music and YG Entertainment have not released an official position. That's because both sides have never acknowledged their romantic relationship.

Dating rumors between V and Jenny first surfaced in May last year. Eyewitness accounts and photos showing a man and woman presumed to be V and Jennie driving on Jeju Island heated up fandom around the world, but at the time, Hive and YG Entertainment made no comment, saying, "It is difficult to confirm their private lives."

Later, in May, a second romance rumor was raised when a video showing V and Jennie holding hands on a date along the Seine River in Paris, France was released. In the video, the two people attracted attention by enjoying their date with a confident attitude, regardless of the attention of those around them. At the time, both agencies did not comment.

However, Jenny indirectly acknowledged her romantic relationship with V. Last July, Jenny posted several photos on her social media, saying, "A few weeks ago." Jenny in the photos attracted attention because she was wearing the same clothes as the person presumed to be Jenny in the video that became a hot topic last May. This was interpreted as an indirect acknowledgment of the dating rumor with V.

There were many people who believed that the two people's romantic relationship was an established fact due to Jenny's indirect recognition, but their romance, which was never openly acknowledged, ultimately remained only a 'rumor'.
