Netizens show mixed reactions to the dating rumors that arose due to the photos of Yoo Ah-in and IU’s accidental encounter in Paris

As the photos of Yoo Ah-in and IU meeting each other by chance in Paris, France spread, some people claim that the two are dating. However, many netizens do not believe it.

An article titled “IU & Yoo Ah-in’s romantic relationship explosion” was recently posted and shared on various online communities.

Dating rumors broke out after the photos of Yoo Ah-in and IU running into each other on the street in Paris, France were revealed on September 26th. The two, who are reportedly not even close to each other, accidentally met in another country.

Since then, the photos spread rapidly online, leading to misunderstandings and speculations of a ‘pink mood’ romance. Many people raised random suspicions of the two’s relationship just by looking at the photo without knowing the exact inside story. A netizen even claimed, “Aren’t the two actually dating?”.

Netizens who encountered this topic reacted, “Isn’t this the first time Yoo Ah-in is involved in a dating rumor with a female celebrity?”, “Aren’t they really dating?”, “Is it possible for people to meet each other by chance like that?”, “If they were really dating, they wouldn’t have greeted each other openly like that”, “Who’s gonna believe such a rumor?”, etc.

Both agencies of Yoo Ah-in and IU have not made any particular position on this issue.
