Netizens React To Absurd “Evidence” That Stray Kids’ Lee Know And NMIXX’s Sullyoon Are Dating

“You have no guy friends, huh?”

In the last few months, some truly iconic romances involving K-celebs have been revealed. Starting with Dispatch’s New Year’s couple of IU and Lee Jong Suk, other relationships to be announced this year include Lee Do Hyun and Lim Jiyeon and BLACKPINK‘s Jisoo and Ahn Bo Hyun.

While those relationships were confirmed, there have been many rumors involving other stars, some with more proof than others, like the rumored relationship between BLACKPINK‘s Lisa and Frederic Arnault.

Fans have become accustomed to seeing Lee Know and Sullyoon together as they are MCs for MBC‘s MusicCore alongside NCT‘s Jungwoo. Since April 2023, when Sullyoon joined the two male idols, the three have gotten closer as time progresses.

The supposed evidence of the two being in a relationship comes from footage of the two interacting during the Music Core Ulsan Summer Festival. All three stars were in attendance and participated in a pre-show rehearsal filmed by a fan.

During a moment from the rehearsal that was later posted to an online forum as “evidence,” Sullyoon and Lee Know are seen laughing together.

Netizens immediately scoffed at the supposed evidence, pointing out how ridiculous it was to come to that conclusion from a short video. Another netizen pointed out they are likely friends since they are both JYP Entertainment artists and were watching STAYC‘s rehearsal during the video.

  • You have no guy friends, huh? They must’ve become friends when they MC-ed together. You’re the f*cking loser if you think they’re dating because they were smiling at each other and having a conversation.
  • I was happy to see STAYC… until I saw the rumors starting to stir.
  • Didn’t even know that was STAYC. They’re just smiling at the performance.
  • Oh, please. They’re from the same company AND they MC a show together. It’d be weirder if they weren’t close friends. Lmao.

International netizens reacted with just as much skepticism, with some stating this is why it’s difficult for male and female idols to interact as they did in the past. Another pointed out that Jungwoo was also there and involved in the conversation.
