BTS’s V and BLACKPINK’s Jennie are back in the spotlight due to a recently circulating photo that allegedly shows them “kissing.” Over the years, rumours about their supposed relationship have emerged repeatedly, from secret meet-ups to their widely discussed outings in Paris. This time, an intimate photo of the two has reignited the gossip surrounding them.
Recently, an image claimed to feature V and Jennie in an intimate moment began making the rounds on social media. The alleged kiss was shared by an anonymous online user who goes by the name “YG Leaker.” The individual, who claims to be a former employee of YG Entertainment, leaked several pieces of information supposedly related to the company, including this viral photo.
The image quickly spread across various platforms, causing many to believe that it was proof of their rumoured romance. Speculations intensified when the so-called “leaker” claimed to have even more private photos of the two idols, further fuelling the frenzy.
Well, is this true?
Despite the initial shock, dedicated fans of both artists quickly pointed out inconsistencies in the viral image. Eagle-eyed netizens noticed that the photo closely resembled an old picture of Hollywood actor Bradley Cooper and model Irina Shayk, who were previously photographed in a similar pose. This finding raised significant doubts about the authenticity of the “leaked” image, leading many to dismiss it as either manipulated or misidentified.
In response to the situation, some fans also called for respect and privacy for the two stars. One user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “That’s not Taehyung; I can recognise him even from a distance.” Another added, “The real and legit leaker is on Discord, not on Instagram. Y’all fall for anything it’s embarrassing.”

V and Jennie’s dating rumours
This isn’t the first time V and Jennie’s names have been linked together. In August 2024, the duo sparked major buzz when a video of them allegedly on a romantic walk in Paris surfaced online. The clip, captured by a French photographer, quickly gained traction, with fans analysing every detail of their supposed date.
Even before that, in 2023, another set of photos and videos showing the rumoured couple walking hand in hand across the city had taken social media by storm.
Despite the ongoing rumours, neither V nor Jennie has publicly addressed the speculations.
