Kim Jennie's 'Mutual Friend' Comment Rekindles Kim Taehyung Dating Rumors

BLACKPINK member Kim Jennie (김제니) recently sat down for an interview with Cosmopolitan, where she discussed the behind-the-scenes story of her collaboration with Australian musician Tame Impala on "Dracula (JENNIE Remix)." However, a single comment she made about a "mutual friend" has once again fueled discussions surrounding her rumored relationship with BTS member Kim Taehyung (김태형), also known as V.

During the interview, Kim Jennie explained the origins of the collaboration, stating that she met Tame Impala through a mutual friend. This connection led to their joint project and the creation of "Dracula (JENNIE Remix)."

Following the interview's release, Kim Jennie's statement quickly became a hot topic on social media. Many netizens speculated that the "mutual friend" she referred to could be Kim Taehyung, citing a photo he shared on social media in November 2022 with Tame Impala's frontman, Kevin Parker, as the basis for their assumption.

Some netizens commented, asking, "Do we finally know who that mutual friend is?" and "Does this indirectly confirm some things?" Others even connected Kim Jennie's other responses in the interview with her past dating rumors involving Kim Taehyung, further intensifying the discussion.

However, Kim Jennie has not yet revealed the true identity of the "mutual friend" nor has she mentioned Kim Taehyung's name. Therefore, all related claims circulating online remain speculative and have not been confirmed by the individuals involved.
