K-Pop idols are often wrapped up in dating rumors and so much as a blink of an eye can lead to a romantic link-up. BTS' V and Red Velvet's Joy have now found themselves to be the subject of dating rumors after they were caught looking at each other intensely at a recent event.
Rumor has it that V and Joy are in a relationship or at least have something going on between them after they were recently photographed exchanging an intense stare as they appeared to completely lost in each other's eyes, All Kpop reported. The photos in question, which were taken at a recent end-of-the-year event, showed the rumored couple gazing at each other, further fueling reports that the couple is dating.
After a while, Joy breaks off the stare and looks down in front of her but V, unable to take his eyes of his new "girlfriend," continues to look in her direction. While some fans dismissed the speculation by pointing out that the BTS member was looking at the MC, some claimed that Joy and V have previously shown signs of being a couple.
This is not the first time V and Joy have been linked romantically. In December 2015, a Korean daily published a report claiming that the K-Pop idols were seeing each other.
"BTS and Red Velvet became close as they ran into each other often during their international promotions and award shows," Koreaboo quoted the report as saying. "According to stories, V is close to EXO's Baekhyun and he was the one who introduced Joy and V. Joy and V have been keeping their relationship going privately messaging each other."
At the time, netizens brushed off the report as tabloid gossip as the publication did not have any substantial evidence to prove that V and Joy were actually dating. However, now that there are images of the pair sharing intense on-stage stare, is it enough to confirm that the two idols are dating?
