BTS’s V (Kim Taehyung) and BLACKPINK’s Jennie (Kim Jennie) have reportedly ended their romantic relationship. According to entertainment insiders on December 6, V and Jennie recently decided to part ways. The two artists openly shared their beautiful love story since becoming a couple last year. Their relationship became public when a photo of them inside a car in Jeju Island was revealed in the summer of last year. Following this, they uploaded similar pictures from similar locations shortly after departing for New York with a one-day difference, solidifying their relationship. Despite facing challenges due to leaked private photos, their status as a couple was widely known. Last year, Jennie invited V to BLACKPINK’s 2nd full album release Private Listening Party. Not only V but also his close friends like Park Seo-joon, Choi Woo-sik, and Park Hyung-sik joined, emphasizing their friendly connections. In May, the couple celebrated their first anniversary with a date in Paris. They walked hand in hand without masks or sunglasses, seemingly unbothered by their surroundings. Regarding their breakup, both parties are maintaining a similar attitude to when their relationship was first revealed. They are not explicitly denying or confirming the breakup, leaving the situation somewhat ambiguous, similar to their initial response to dating rumors. The breakup news comes as V is set to enlist in the military on December 11, and Jennie has renewed her contract with YG Entertainment for continued group activities with BLACKPINK.
