A new interview with BLACKPINK‘s Jennie has sparked a debate about her dating rumors with BTS‘s V, with many seeing it as “proof.”

Recent comments about Jennie’s collaboration with Tame Impala have been linked to BTS‘s V.

Jennie and Kevin Parker recently did an interview for Rolling Stone.
During the interview, Kevin and Jennie spoke about their collaboration and mentioned that they met in a bar in Korea with their mutual friend Peter Utz.

Many then used the clip to hit back at claims that the mutual friend was V.

Yet, while some thought it went against the allegations, others thought it proved them, with a TikTok gaining attention as the OP claimed that link between Peter and V, but also, when saying “Both of them,” still confirmed it was the BTS idol. In particular, V also attended the mentioned CELINE event.
@claawozo Just Peter? They can try to hide it all they want, but we already clocked it.Kevin’s smile at the end when he said Celine Event is such a giveaway and J saying “OKAY” (like she was rushing him to stop talking and keep it hush-hush) 😝😉 #taennieisreal #taehyung #jennie #viral #fyp
Netizens reacted to these allegations.


Other videos were also sharing the narrative that the interview was “proof.”

@tae_hyung117 Actually we never know Jennie and Peter utz are friends 🥹 #jennie #taehyung #taennie #vnnie #thvj
Some pointed out that while Peter was there and a mutual friend, there was no specification that he had given the number, which many thought was still V as the idol is also friends with Peter.
People missing the point: Peter was just there at the bar. But when Kevin wanted to collab later, his friend said 'I have her number.' If it was Peter, he’d know they already met. That friend had no clue they knew each other! pic.twitter.com/KMcdIwNG2M
