1. Summary of the report | What was reported?

 

Shukan Bunshun reported that Mrs. GREEN APPLE guitarist Wakai Koto and NiziU member NINA may be in an "intimate relationship," and the article cited testimony that "Nina has been seen visiting Wakai's home multiple times." However, it's important to note that no official confirmation or denial has been made by either agency or the individual in question. In other words, at this stage, the reports remain merely "speculation based on interview testimony," and the relationship has not been confirmed as fact.

 

 

 

 

2. The context of the "joint live performance" that supposedly deepened their relationship

 

It's reported that a joint live concert (battle of bands) held in April 2024 was the catalyst that brought the two closer together. While Mrs. GREEN APPLE has a strong "artistic presence," their devoted fan base is known for being largely "riako" (a form of support that is close to romantic feelings). As a result, there was some opposition to their collaboration with a female idol at the time. It could be interpreted that the "emotional gap" that arose here created an environment that was easily linked to later reports of a romantic relationship. However, there is currently insufficient evidence to conclude that the battle of bands was the direct beginning of a romantic relationship.

 

 

 

 

3. Relationships with friends and past reports surrounding Wakai Koto

 

Wakai Koto has a wide network of creative activities and is known as an artist with a gentle personality. This spring, the weekly photo magazine FRIDAY reported on his "sleepover date" with gravure idol Ichika Miri, which has led to growing questions online such as "What is the chronology?" and "Were they happening simultaneously?" However, as no clear explanation has been given by Wakai himself or the other party in this case, the facts remain unsorted and information is piling up.

 

 

 

 

4. JYP's "3-year dating rule" and this case

JYP Entertainment has long had a policy of "no dating for three years after debut." However, NiziU debuted in 2020, and five years have already passed, so they do not violate this "three-year rule." Therefore, even if they were in a relationship, it is unlikely that it would lead to contractual issues or suspension of activities.

 

 

 

 

5. Differences in perception between the two fan bases

group	Main fan trends	This reaction
Mrs. GREEN APPLE	There are many "real fans" (those who support the group emotionally)	Voices of disappointment and shock are prominent
NiziU	There are many calm cheering styles	Some people say, "It's OK as long as it makes the person happy."

 

This is influenced by the difference in the culture of reception between idols and artists.

 

 

 

 

6. The background that fueled the rumors | Idol/Artist Structure

 

In the music industry, rumors tend to spread especially during the following steps:

 

Co-starring → Interaction → Coincidence on social media → Speculation that there may be a connection → Spread

This is merely a "structure based on appearance" and does not necessarily correspond to the actual relationship.

 

 

 

 

7. Q&A | Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Are they confirmed to be dating?
→ No. The reports are based on testimonies and have not been officially confirmed.

 

 

Q2. Is there a possibility that the agency will make a comment?
→ It depends on the specific actions and the scale of the controversy, but at this stage it is likely that we will remain silent.

 

 

Q3. Is there a possibility that Nina will leave the group or take a hiatus?
→ Currently, there is no such announcement and no reasonable basis for it.

 

 

Q4. Has Wakai's image been damaged?
→ This has been discussed in conjunction with previous reports, and reactions are divided within the fan base.

 

 

 

 

8. Summary

 

At this point, we can say:

 

▪️The relationship is "not confirmed"

However, it can be established that there were many points of contact.

▪️Differences in fan culture and fragmented information are what fueled the spread of rumors

 

That is what it means.

Future developments will depend on whether or not there are any comments from either party or their agencies, so it is important to calmly wait for further reports.
