It’s been about a week since V and Jennie got caught up in a dating rumor started by a local photographer. The dating rumors of V and Jennie actually broke out in June last year and for about a year now, fans have been searching for answers as to whether they are really dating.

Contrary to the excitement of the online community, both artists as well as the management company kept silent about this rumor and did not give any official response. Meanwhile, on the morning of May 22 (KST), Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music first made an official announcement to K-media about V’s appearance in Paris.

While some believe that this announcement implicitly represents Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music and V’s attitude towards the rumours, some criticized the company for making the announcement meaningless:

On May 15, V took off from Incheon Airport for frαncє on an undisclosed personal schedule. Just a few days later, fans were ̾s̾h̾o̾c̾ked after a video went viral on social media that allegedly showed him and Jennie on a date in Paris.

It was around May 18 when a photographer posted a video confirming that Jennie and V were walking hand in hand, followed by the two artists’ äṩṩistants walking the streets of frαncє. At first, many people did not believe it was V and Jennie and doubted the authenticity of the video. However, later, some fans shared many close-up photos of V’s face and showed the similarity of the character’s outfit in the clip with him in real life, which were caught on the same day, leading many to believe that both two really dating.

However, despite the controversy surrounding dating, V and Jennie still did not speak up while YG Entertainment and Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music remained silent. According to some ḳöŕệän newspapers, when contacting Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music’s representatives, they refused to make any comments.

Meanwhile, on the morning of May 22 (KST), Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music released the first official statement about V’s appearance in Paris with the HeraldPop. Responding to this media’s question, Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music replied that: “V is visiting France to attend fashion pictorials and events of luxury brand Celine in France”.

Not long ago, V also posted on Instagram about CELINE’s invitation letter and confirmed to participate in the upcoming Cannes Film Festival 2023 in Paris. It can be seen that V will carry out schedules as a global ambäṩṩador of CELINE in frαncє and Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music also confirmed his schedule.

From the announcement of Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music, many people think that it implicitly indicates that V came to frαncє to work as a K-pop star. Netizens also confirmed that Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music made this official announcement after many days of dating rumors broke out, also to want fans to understand the purpose of V coming here and not want to mention dating because it is meaningless.

Meanwhile, some people criticized Bł₲ Ⱨł₮ Music for not making any valuable comments even though V is being attacked by dating rumors:
