Jennie has become the subject of another high-profile dating rumor after a Chinese entertainment manager claimed during a livestream that the BLACKPINK star once dated a top Chinese male celebrity.
The allegation quickly spread across Chinese and Korean social media platforms, triggering widespread discussion among fans and netizens.
However, the claim was met with immediate skepticism due to the lack of supporting evidence.
According to online discussions, the individual behind the rumor failed to provide photographs, eyewitness accounts, overlapping schedules, or any concrete details identifying the alleged celebrity. As a result, many internet users questioned the credibility of the story from the outset.
As netizens attempted to match Jennie’s public schedules with potential Chinese entertainment figures, many concluded that the timeline simply did not add up.
The lack of evidence soon transformed the rumor from a serious discussion into a viral internet joke.
One of the most popular responses involved Fu Bao, one of the most beloved giant pandas among Chinese and Korean fans.
Netizens humorously claimed that the only “top Chinese celebrity” Jennie had ever met was Fu Bao.
The joke originated from BLACKPINK’s 2020 reality series 24/365 with BLACKPINK, where the members visited Everland and participated in panda care activities. At the time, the young Fu Bao appeared in the program, creating a memorable interaction that fans still remember today.
As the rumor continued spreading, social media platforms became flooded with memes and humorous comments.
Some users joked: “There is no Chinese entertainment superstar—only a national treasure superstar.” Others wrote: “The only logical answer is Fu Bao.” Another viral comment described the panda as “Jennie’s true top-star ex.”
The lighthearted reactions quickly overshadowed the original dating allegation itself.
Jennie has frequently found herself at the center of relationship rumors throughout her career. She previously confirmed a relationship with Kai and has also been linked to stars such as G-Dragon and V, though many reports were never officially confirmed.
For now, most fans appear more interested in Jennie’s upcoming music releases and stage activities than in an unverified romance rumor.
Without evidence or official confirmation, the story remains speculation, while Fu Bao unexpectedly continues to steal the spotlight as the internet’s favorite punchline.
