Unveiling the Myths and Unverified Secrets of K-Pop Groups: BTS, EXO, and Blackpink

As a digital native who identifies with the culture and trends of South Korea, I often encounter anecdotes and rumors surrounding the K-Pop groups BTS, EXO, and Blackpink. These include sasaengs, fan groups committed to uncovering what they perceive as the truth, while often sharing content that is speculative in nature. In this article, we will explore some of the lesser-known claims about these popular groups, separating the truth from the fiction.

Myth: Jisso and Jin from Blackpink are Cousins

One of the more intriguing rumors about the Blackpink powerhouse is that Jisso and Jin might be cousins. However, this claim has no concrete evidence to support it. While it is common for celebrities to engage in rumor culture and play along with fans' speculations, it is crucial to regard such rumors as unverified. BothJisso and Jin have independently achieved personal and group milestones, suggesting no familial connection.

Myth: Jungkook of BTS is Dating IU and She is Cheating

Another unconfirmed rumor is that BTS's Jungkook is dating IU, and she is reportedly cheating. This claim has been widely circulated on various social media platforms. However, it is essential to remember that no credible sources have confirmed this relationship. As of now, both Jungkook and IU maintain active social media presences and engagement with their fans, leading us to believe that they are not involved in such a scandal.

Myth: Taehyung is Dating a Member of Blackpink

There are unsubstantiated claims circulating that Taehyung (V) is dating a member of Blackpink. Like many other rumors, this one lacks concrete evidence. Additionally, both Taehyung and the members of Blackpink can be seen engaged in official promotional activities and interacting with their respective fan bases. This rumor remains firmly in the realms of speculation and fan theories.

Myth: Kim Jaemin (Former Member of BTS) Still in Contact with BTS and Blackmailing Them

A persistent rumor suggests that Kim Jaemin, the former member of BTS, is still in contact with the group and even blackmailing them. There is no credible evidence to support such allegations. The former members of BTS, including Jaemin, have their own pursuits and professional paths, and there is no public indication that they are involved in any form of blackmail.

Myth: Jimin of BTS is Dating Song Da Eun

Athirty-day narrative surrounding the alleged romance between Jimin (BTS) and Song Da Eun has been circulating. Unfortunately, this too remains unverified. Many of the K-pop performers leading active and public lives such as Jimin are always in the limelight, and if such a personal life change were to occur, it would likely be public knowledge.

Myth: BTS V is Racist

An unverified claim suggests that BTS's V is racist. This accusation, while unpredictable in the volatile world of K-pop scandals, lacks concrete evidence. Fans share such narratives based on personal opinions or perceived actions, but until there is substantive proof, these claims should be treated with caution. It's important to understand that every individual should be judged based on factual evidence rather than assumptions or conjecture.

Myth: Sehun of EXO Forced Jisso to Do Something EXO Liked and Supported EXO-L When ATF Was Apologizing because Kai Smiled

A-third party claim is that Sehun (EXO) forced Jisso to do something that EXO liked, and they supported EXO-L when ATF (the EXO-L response team) was apologizing because Kai smiled during an apology meeting. This narrative is complex and involves multiple parties, making it difficult to verify. Fans often create such stories based on personal interpretations of public interactions, but without official confirmation, these claims remain speculative.

Myth: Suho Slapped BLACKPINK's Jennie Because She Knew Kai was Dating Her

A highly sensational claim posits that Suho (EXO) slapped BLACKPINK's Jennie because she knew Suho and Kai (EXO) were dating, and then dated Suho. However, there is no concrete evidence to back up this assertion. Personal relationships and conflicts, especially between entertainers, tend to remain private. Until this claim is substantiated, it should be considered anecdotal at best.

It is important to approach claims about the personal and professional lives of K-pop idols with a critical eye. While rumors and speculations can be entertaining for fans, they often lack concrete evidence and can sometimes be damaging to the reputation of the individuals involved. As a responsible digital citizen, it is essential to support these artists and their work rather than spreading unverified information.
