On July 12, Jennie posted on her Instagram page with more than 80 million followers a series of photos taken in the same outfit that appeared in the video clip of her holding hands with the boy identified as V of BTS.
The female singer also captioned the photo: "A few weeks ago..." as a tacit admission that she was dating one of the most famous members of the globally popular boy band.

Many of Jennie's fans congratulated their idol, saying that she was brave in confirming the dating rumors. However, some of V's fans criticized Jennie, saying that she was deliberately trying to attract attention when the dating rumors were gradually dying down.
On the evening of May 17, a video clip of a couple walking hand in hand in France was posted on Twitter. The person who posted the video clip said that the couple was V and Jennie. They were not walking alone but were followed by both of their managers.

At first, many fans did not believe the video clip. They thought it was another couple who looked similar to their favorite stars. However, the close-up images released, especially the images of the two familiar managers of the two singers, made many netizens believe this was true.
YG Entertainment (Blackpink's management company) and HYBE Group (BTS's management) spoke ambiguously, saying it was difficult to confirm whether it was true or false, because this was the artist's private life.

On May 20, a close-up photo identified by the online community as BTS singer V in a video clip signing autographs for fans was posted. Seeing these images, many people sent their blessings to V and Jennie even though there was no official confirmation of the dating rumors from the two singers or their management company.
V and Jennie are both scheduled in France. Jennie will attend the red carpet of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival as an actress in the movie "Idol", while V is in France for his own schedule.
This is not the first time the two have been rumored to be dating. In 2022, a series of photos of V and Jennie being intimate together were posted online.
However, at this time, the rumors are unconfirmed and fans of both claim they are the result of photoshop.
