[talk] Is Rijung and V's relationship true? From concert sightings to evidence of their marriage and requests for clarification, we've compiled a comprehensive summary!

Rumors of a relationship between Lee Jung and V (Kim Taehyung) have surfaced due to footage of them spotted at concerts and a past couples dance challenge. We'll cover the whole story of the controversy, from the request for clarification on Instagram to the conflict within the fandom.

1. The romance rumor began: a sighting at a concert

In September 2025, V and Rijun were spotted together at Tyler, The Creator's Japan concert held at Ilsan KINTEX, sparking romance rumors. The video footage shows V looking at Rijun, who was standing a short distance away, then quickly looking away, and then Rijun glancing at V out of the corner of his eye and briefly making eye contact with him. Although the footage only lasted a few seconds, fans debated whether they were simply accompanying each other or if they were in a private relationship, and the romance rumors spread quickly. It is also reported that J-Hope, RM, James, and others were also at the venue that day.

2. Fans demand an explanation and flood Instagram with comments

When this sighting story spread, Rejung's Instagram was inundated with comments asking for an explanation of his relationship with V. Hundreds of comments were posted in just one day, and the controversy quickly escalated.

Some fans argued that "since they are public figures, they should take a clear stance," while others called for restraint, saying "careless speculation will only hurt the parties involved." Some defended them, saying "They may have just happened to meet at the venue," while others pressured them, saying "Since they were together in public, they should take a stance to avoid misunderstandings," deepening the division of opinion within the fandom.

3. Past couple dance challenges and collaboration history

The reason why the romance rumor has spread more rapidly this time is that the two's past collaboration history has once again come into focus.
In June 2025, shortly after V completed his military service, the two released a couple dance challenge video that caused a huge stir. This video, one of their first projects since returning, drew attention for the natural and intimate chemistry between the two.

In a subsequent interview in July, Rejun said of V, "We're connected through dance. He loves dance as much as I do, and we have great synergy whenever we meet," hinting at a special relationship. These comments were later brought up again, leading to speculation that "it may be more than just a collaboration, but a deeper relationship."

4. Silence on both sides and continuing debate

Despite the growing controversy, neither V nor Reejeon have yet taken an official stance. As a result, fans continue to demand explanations, and the media continues to release related reports, further fueling the controversy. Opinions are divided within BTS's fandom, ARMY, with some calmly responding that "privacy should be respected" and others pressuring others, saying "public figures deserve at least a basic explanation."

5. What this controversy shows us

The recent dating rumors between Rejeon and V have gone beyond mere entertainment gossip and become a typical example of how quickly the public reacts and demands clarification. In particular, it has led to a debate about how much of a celebrity's private life should be made public. While public curiosity is fast and intense, artists also have a clear private area, so it is highly likely that similar controversies will recur in the future.
