Other photos from the same night showed that the couple indeed looked very similar to V and Jennie. The new videos and photos seem to confirm long-believed speculation on whether the K-Pop icons were dating. The video clips have since gone viral in Korean online communities, where netizens overwhelmingly congratulated the couple.
- “I really like the fact that Jennie seems to only meet people that she matches well with.”
- “Wow… They are walking holding hands?”
- “They look so good together. They’re so cute.”
- “Wow, they should just come out with their relationship. Go-go!”
- “Fans might be disappointed, but I hope V and Jennie have a loving relationship.”
- “Both idols have been in the industry for a long time, so who cares if they are dating? They both reached the top.”
- “Wow, it seems they are still going strong… Both of them are at the top (of their industries) and are colleagues who are going for a night stroll by the Eifel Tower after finishing their schedules… It’s seriously like a couple in a movie, ㅠㅠ. I’m so jealous of Jennie’s life.”
- “Jennie’s walk is so cute.”
- “But I kind of feel bad for them that they were spotted by paparazzi overseas… There really isn’t a place on this earth where they can date freely.”
- “They are going strong.”
- “Have a loving relationship~<3.”
HYBE and YG Entertainment have yet to make a statement about the new video.
