BLACKPINK Jennie-BTS V Romance Rumours Over 'Croissant' Mention Leaves Fans Unconvinced

BTS member Kim Taehyung, aka V, and BLACKPINK Jennie have been at the centre of dating rumours for a very long time. In the most recent, both K-pop idols started getting linked after their appearances at Paris Fashion Week. While ARMY laughed at the ‘French’ reason behind these reports, others are curious to know if there’s any real connection to that.

What began as Jennie's playful interview moment has unexpectedly sparked debate, with some BLINKs convinced it was a subtle reference to V following his recent viral video.

Earlier this month, V attended CELINE’s Paris Fashion Week show, where a short clip of him casually eating a croissant went viral. Fans adored the contrast between his charming looks and his cute expression while eating, making the video one of the most shared highlights from the event.

A few days later, Jennie appeared at Chanel’s Paris show and joined a short interview. When asked about her favourite French word, she shyly replied, “croissant.” While laughing, she said, “I’m gonna be stupid and say croissant. I love croissants.” Although her answer seemed casual, its timing grabbed attention as it came right after Taehyung's viral croissant moment.

Fans who have long “shipped” the two idols reacted with excitement, seeing it as another connection between them. However, others took it differently. Some netizens accused Jennie of purposely using the word to gain attention, claiming she was trying to link herself to V’s viral clip. Meanwhile, many defended her, saying people were overanalysing an innocent comment and that the backlash was unnecessary.

Despite mixed reactions, the incident has revived talks about Jennie and V’s alleged relationship, which has been one of K-pop’s most discussed topics since their dating rumours first surfaced.

In August 2024, V and Jennie sparked major buzz after a video of their alleged date in Paris went viral. The French photographer who claimed to have filmed the clip later shared the story behind it.
