Well, this situation has once again raised a question. Why do agencies or K-pop idols have to address such rumours at all? An idol’s romantic life and personal matters should remain private. Shouldn’t idols be allowed to have their own relationships without the need for public clarification or judgement? It’s an ongoing topic of discussion on social media platforms, and we so agree! Fans need to maintain boundaries and stop jumping into their favourite K-pop idol’s private matters.
