Fans of Jungkook & Winter have returned to scrutinize some new details, considering them additional evidence of the pair’s alleged relationship. Dating rumors date back to May 2022, after the two were seen together at a Harry Styles concert alongside Taehyung and several K-pop and K-drama stars.
In his latest live broadcast on October 28, Jungkook appeared wearing a Handmade Unbraided bracelet, the same accessory that Winter has been seen wearing frequently. Meanwhile, Winter caught attention during a fan sign event on October 22 when she wore Japanese brand Needles shorts, which appeared slightly loose on her, along with sandals similar to those Jungkook had worn previously, leading some to speculate that they were the same shorts as his.
Some fans also noted a shared American phone case between the two. These small details ignited excitement among shippers—fans who connect stars romantically.
The speculation didn’t stop there, as another alleged clue emerged involving a Korean snack called Kkancho, a popular treat in South Korea. The snack is known for having common Korean names printed on it, encouraging consumers to find their own name within the package as a fun game.
During his live, Jungkook talked about the snack, revealing that he had been trying to find his name for days, jokingly saying, “I can’t find a single name,” while attempting to open a new pack. The video quickly went viral, and some speculated that the name he was referring to was Winter’s, Minjeong.
Fans quickly connected the Kkancho snack to Winter, who had mentioned it in her own live broadcast just one day before Jungkook, revealing that she had found her name, Minjeong. Fans supporting the “Winkook” ship (#Winkook) saw this as a “perfect match”: “Jungkook is searching for his name with no luck, while Winter managed to find hers. Is this a sign that they share these daily moments? Or was Jungkook hinting at something bigger?”
These alleged clues sparked widespread debate among Jungkook and Winter fans, with some considering them new evidence to add to previous coincidences like synchronized trips, outfits, and songs, which they believe were intentionally shared by the : Couple:”At this point, there’s no way to deny that Winter and Jungkook are dating — less than a week after she was seen wearing his Needles shorts and sandals, he shows up on live wearing the same Handmade Unbraided bracelet she never takes off and US phone case too.”
Meanwhile, many Jungkook fans argued that these cannot be considered proof, pointing out that Kkancho is extremely popular in South Korea and that the bracelets are not identical: “You’re completely insane! 1. The snack is common in Korea. 2. Winter didn’t say when she ate it, maybe weeks ago. 3. Jungkook said he opens one every day trying to find his name.”
