Unsurprisingly, it sparked speculation with many thinking it’s related to the recent “dating rumors” surrounding aespa‘s Winter.
Netizens believed that Jungkook had witnessed the controversy and didn’t want to fuel more speculation or rumors among fans, with many speculating that the name was “Minjeong,” which is Winter’s real name.
