Rumours about BTS member V, also known as Kim Taehyung, and South Korean singer Jang Wonyoung have taken over social media in recent days. Fans have been buzzing with curiosity after several posts and supposed “clues” went viral online, sparking speculation that the two idols might be secretly dating. Though both artists are known for keeping their personal lives private, their names are now trending as fans try to connect every small detail from their social media activity.
The dating rumours first started when a user named @momo on the Chinese social platform Douban claimed that V and Wonyoung were seeing each other. The user shared what they described as “evidence,” pointing out that both stars posted photos from what looked like the same restaurants — Seoul’s SAN restaurant and the popular Mother Wolf restaurant — just a day apart. In one of Wonyoung’s photos, she was seen sitting at a table filled with desserts, while fans noticed that V had also been to the same spot around the same time.
The user further suggested that the pair dined privately and that the seating arrangements in their posts matched. Netizens also noticed that both of them were in Los Angeles during the KCON Awards, leading to more speculation that their schedules might have overlapped. Another part of the rumour came from photos showing what fans believe to be V’s marble-patterned dining table appearing in one of Wonyoung’s posts. People online quickly began comparing the images, claiming that the pattern of the table matched perfectly.
Things escalated when fans pointed out that Jang Wonyoung shared a picture of a noodle dish — reportedly one of Kim Taehyung’s favourite meals. Some even claimed that she was eating “his noodles,” a theory that quickly went viral. These small coincidences — from food choices to home decor — have made fans more curious and added fuel to the ongoing conversation.
However, despite all the chatter, neither of their management companies has made any official statement. HYBE, which manages BTS, and Starship Entertainment, which manages IVE, have remained silent about the rumours. Both idols have also stayed quiet, choosing not to respond to the claims or the growing online discussion.
Right now, there’s no confirmation that Kim Taehyung and Jang Wonyoung are actually dating. Most of the so-called evidence comes from fan observations and social media speculation, which could easily be coincidences. Still, with both stars being two of the biggest names in K-pop, it’s no surprise that fans are watching every post closely — waiting to see whether these rumours fade away or turn out to be true.
