Recently, dating rumors between Winter and Jungkook have resurfaced after alleged “evidence” began circulating online, including similar bracelets and a matching phone case like the one seen in Winter’s latest update. This sparked anger among some of Jungkook’s fans, who accused the aespa member of deliberately trying to create dating rumors.
In her latest update, Winter shared photos with her fellow member Giselle to celebrate her 25th birthday. However, some fans noticed that Winter had gone back to using a phone case she had replaced some time ago — the same model Jungkook was seen using during his live broadcast on October 30.
One netizen wrote:
“I knew it. Winter just wants attention and keeps using Jungkook’s name to stay relevant. Do you know she was using a white phone case until yesterday, and suddenly switched back to this one to match Jungkook? The only picture you have with Giselle, Winter, and you used it just to show off that case? Leave Jungkook alone — he has a girlfriend.”
These claims angered Jungkook’s fans, who accused Winter of deliberately fueling dating rumors with the BTS member by using the same items he owns. They also pointed out that the photo she uploaded was intentionally blurry to highlight the phone case, making it appear identical to Jungkook’s:
- “Jungkook, a global pop star, doesn’t need attention from someone people have to Google to recognize If anything, she’s the one getting all the spotlight from being linked to someone ten times more famous.”
- “In reality, Jungkook already has a girlfriend. Winter gained her fame through this shipping, so of course she loves the attention she gets. She got exactly what she wanted and won’t hesitate to keep fueling it.”
- “She’s using Giselle’s birthday as an excuse to show off her phone and provoke fans.”
- “This loser picked a low-quality photo just to show off her phone case while pretending to wish her friend a happy birthday! Winter, you’re so pathetic, I swear. How can this nobody be so obsessed with Jungkook?”
Meanwhile, Winter’s fans fiercely defended her, pointing out that the phone case she used is part of a collaboration between aespa and the brand, while some argued that Jungkook himself might be the one reigniting rumors by using items Winter had already been seen with.
- “Why does it matter? Both of them have owned that brand forever. Stop the nonsense.”
- “ARMYs love projecting their delusion onto every other woman.”
- “Winter doesn’t need to ‘run,’ bish. She’s walking hand in hand with the phone case her group collaborated with. Accusing and badmouthing another woman must be in your blood.”
- “Free Winter from these deranged people. She’s not dating that old man — her standards are way higher.”
- “Stop harassing Winter. She’s not responsible for anything that happens. You’re all just toxic ARMYs who can’t leave any idol alone.”
