Song Da Eun’s Instagram stories sparked a firestorm of criticism, with netizens accusing her of using BTS Jimin’s fame for her own gain.
They called her out for subtly hinting at a romance with the BTS heartthrob, labeling her moves as “clout-chasing” and “attention-seeking”.
Fans expressed their support for Jimin dating whoever he wants, but they don’t like how Song Da Eun is trying to use his fame to get more attention and popularity for herself.
Song Da Eun, known for her appearance on Channel A’s Heart Signal 2, fueled dating rumors with Jimin once again.
It is not the first time the Jimin and Song Da Eun Dating rumors have surfaced, and both parties have chosen to remain tight-lipped on the matter.
On May 16, the 32-year-old actress shared a series of photos and videos on her official social media account.
Among these, a video has gone viral among netizens, showing a person with their face covered by a flower emoticon walking along a river. The video has sparked speculation due to its striking similarity to a 2021 content video featuring BTS’ Jimin. Specifically, the background and shoe design match the ones in Jimin’s video.
In one photo, she is seen wearing an official BTS merchandise T-shirt with the song title MIC Drop printed on it. Another photo shows a partial view of a yellow ball, which is believed to be related to a past BTS content featuring Jimin.
Moreover, the background in a video of Song Da Eun’s dog playing matched to the interior of Jimin’s home, which was previously revealed.
The photo that rekindled all the rumors about Song Da Eun and Jimin dating showed a wireless earphone case with their names engraved in English initials. Interestingly, she quickly removed the post shortly after sharing it, which was different from what she usually does with her other photos and videos.
Back in 2022, she directly addressed the dating rumors and backlash from fans. She stated she is not scared of the fandom, however, did not deny or confirm the relationship.
Lastly, fans are urging HYBE to address the situation and take appropriate action.
