BLACKPINK’s Jennie has once again become the focus of dating speculation, and this time the rumors unexpectedly overlap with those surrounding fellow member Rosé.
After past rumors linked her to BTS’s V, Jennie was recently spotted with actor Nico Hiraga, sparking debate among fans. While some dismissed the sighting as a casual friendship, others argued that the interaction looked more intimate.
Nico Hiraga, known for roles in Booksmart and Moxie, originally pursued professional skateboarding before an injury ended his competitive career at 19. Despite that setback, he remains active in the skateboarding community, which is how he formed a friendship with actor, model, and skater Evan Mock.
That connection is what tied Jennie’s latest rumors to Rosé. Evan Mock previously appeared as Rosé’s love interest in her “toxic till the end” music video, and his off-screen interactions with Rosé at the time fueled speculation of a possible romance. Because of Mock’s close friendship with Hiraga, fans were quick to point out the overlap once Jennie’s rumors surfaced.
The coincidence sparked heated debate online, with some netizens insisting it was undeniable proof of a deeper connection while others mocked the claims as exaggerated.
Comments included:
“So he’s best friends with Rosé’s rumored boyfriend—what a coincidence.”
“There’s even a photo of them holding hands, you can’t deny it lol.”
“People are reading way too much into this. There’s no ‘couple vibe’ at all.”
“Looks like Rosé might have introduced them through Evan.”
Whether pure coincidence or an actual link, the Jennie–Hiraga rumors continue to divide opinion, especially with the added layer of Rosé’s name being drawn into the conversation.
