Over the past 24 hours, rumors of BTS’s Jungkook dating aespa’s Winter have captured the attention of K-pop fans across Asia. The couple has been spotted with matching items such as headphones, tattoos, and even Instagram handles hinting at each other. Ambiguous statements from both agencies— “We do not have a stance on this matter” —have further fueled speculation.
On the morning of December 6, Koreaboo released new photos showing Winter wearing what appears to be Jungkook’s oversized shorts and slippers at a fan event. The outfit looked unusually large on Winter, suggesting the clothing may have belonged to the male idol. Fans quickly noticed the size discrepancy and speculated that Winter was indeed wearing Jungkook’s personal items.
In addition to the outfit, further evidence such as matching dog-face tattoos has surfaced, strengthening the rumors of their relationship. Jungkook was also spotted attending an aespa concert during his military leave, reportedly to support Winter.
Social media responses were mixed but largely critical. Many netizens commented that Winter’s choice of clothing for a fan meeting was inappropriate, saying things like:
- It’s one thing if they want to date, but showing up at a fan meeting dressed like that is really strange.
- I don’t care if they’re dating, but this outfit is shocking for a fan event.
- Matching outfits are okay, but why wear men’s clothing that’s too big?
Some fans were also surprised by the boldness of the rumored couple, claiming the move “even outshines Jennie and V,” who were previously known for being one of K-pop’s most daring public couples when holding hands in France.
This incident has quickly become a hot topic on social media, fueling discussions about dating culture in K-pop and fan expectations regarding idols’ public appearances.
