After a jam-packed schedule with BLACKPINK, Jisoo’s name found its way on the trending topics on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, August 3, KST. In a surprising turn of events, the 1995 liner K-pop idol happened to have her first dating news since her debut. BLACKPINK Jisoo and actor Ahn Bo Hyun confirm a blossoming relationship. In case you missed the dating news, here’s what you need to know.
BLACKPINK Kim Jisoo and Ahn Bo Hyun are dating!
On the morning of August 3, the X platform received consecutive media reports from Korean news outlets about the dating news. The exclusive report came from Dispatch Korea, stating that the “present of K-pop and future of K-drama” began dating.
In Dispatch’s timeline, the Korean personalities started seeing each other in May 2023. Further mentioning that, Jisoo and Bo Hyun were seen in Yongsan, Seoul, in May, June, and July, where the girl group member lives.
The most recent news, on August 1, the two were together again. The 28-year-old idol and 35-year-old actor would have their dates at Jisoo’s apartment. Ahn Bo Hyun drives himself and comes to her home.
If you think that’s all, Dispatch also revealed that even in a hectic filming schedule, the actor makes sure to visit Jisoo. He wears casual and comfortable clothes while bringing take-outs for the two of them to enjoy.
We can’t stop our fangirling; as an insider said in a Koreaboo report, Bo Hyun makes certain that his schedule fits when Jisoo arrives in South Korea. FYI, BLACKPINK has been on tour for almost a year now. “There were not many days Jisoo was in Korea. Ahn Bo Hyun coordinated his schedule to make sure it matched Jisoo’s, so they could be together,” they said.
The Agencies’ statement
The agencies of both parties released their official statement about the dating news. YG Entertainment and FN Entertainment both confirmed the news that Jisoo and Bo Hyun are dating.
According to Soompi’s translated report, “They are getting to know each other with positive feelings,” and also said, “We would be thankful if you look upon them with warmth.“
Fans’ Reactions
Fans couldn’t contain their reactions after hearing the news from various Korean and international media outlets. ‘Jisoo’ quickly reached over 300K tweets in a span of an hour. This might be Jisoo’s first dating news, but the fans welcomed it warmly, congratulating the couple.
