• Netizens Are Suspicious of Big Hit Music's Quick Response to RM's Marriage Rumors While Remaining Silent About V's Dating Rumors

    While Big Hit Music actively denied the dating rumors of BTS' RM, people's eyes are again on V.

    On June 24th, Big Hit Music, the agency of BTS, quickly released a statement when rumors spread through online communities that RM was about to marry a woman from a prestigious university.

    Big Hit Music said, "It is groundless, and we are continuously responding to malicious content".

    Thus, RM's dating and marriage rumors were closed.

    However, since then, the dating rumors of V, a member of the same group BTS as RM, are being re-examined among netizens.

    Big Hit Music immediately responded to RM's marriage rumors, but did not take any stance on V's dating rumors.

    In May, a photo of a man and woman presumed to be Jennie and V driving on Jeju Island was circulated online, leading to speculation that the two were on a trip to Jeju Island together, and even rumors of a dating relationship.

    In this regard, YG Entertainment, Jennie's agency, said, "We have nothing to tell you. If a different position emerges, We will pass it on to you".

    And Big Hit Music remained silent.

    Netizens are showing reactions such as "Is V and Jennie real dating?" and "For now, I'm on neutral gear".

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
