‘Walking Hand in Hand in the City of Love’: Blackpink’s Jennie and BTS’ V Allegedly Caught on Date in Paris

In an alleged Instagram audio message, he also told the fan that the video was “improvised” as he did not have his camera with him, leading to the poor video quality on his iPhone.

“[They were] very secretive on the street, and I captured that it was Jennie and Taehyung. I saw them, yeah, I can confirm,” he added.

An Instagram Story by French photographer Ali Letaissa also showed a close-up of V from the same night, apparently wearing the same outfit as in the video.

“Taehyung walking the streets of Paris with Jennie, then parting ways once they see the paparazzi,” the caption read.

A photo allegedly uploaded by a member of Jennie’s management team also showed her in the same outfit at a Maison Margiela store.

Jennie is said to be in Paris to promote her TV show, The Idol, which will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. South Korean media outlet Dispatch also reported that V departed for Paris on May 15 to attend an event for fashion brand Celine.

Some fans are convinced the videos show their favourite idols.

“Taehyung and Jennie in Paris, walking hand-in-hand in the city of love! This is definitely them, they’re so much in love!” a fan tweeted.

Others were sceptical, with a fan responding with a zoomed-in screengrab of the video. In it, the man purported to be V appeared to have a moustache and looked nothing like the BTS idol.

“Parisian air changed his whole face,” they joked.
