The controversy began after Song Da Eun uploaded and later deleted a video featuring Jimin. Shortly after, she posted additional clips that many interpreted as fueling speculation about a possible romantic connection between the two.
On August 27, a thread on Korean forum theqoo gained traction after gathering numerous images meant to highlight similarities between Jimin and Song Da Eun. Netizens dissected everything from outfits and accessories to interiors and brand choices, comparing Da Eun’s social media posts to Jimin’s appearances.
Examples included Da Eun wearing coats or hoodies that resembled ones Jimin had been seen in, and even matching caps from the same brand. Attention also centered on backgrounds: screenshots of Song Da Eun’s Instagram stories appeared to mirror settings shown in BTS’s Beyond the Star documentary or during Jimin’s Weverse live broadcasts.
Despite the post being framed as “evidence” for the alleged relationship, reactions were mixed. While some fans cited the images to criticize Song Da Eun, many netizens on theqoo defended her, dismissing the comparisons as circumstantial and overreaching.
With the post amassing close to 100,000 views, the debate around Jimin and Song Da Eun continues to dominate online conversations, highlighting the intensity of scrutiny surrounding K-pop idols and their rumored relationships.
