It's been years since the alleged beef between Jimin and Jeongyeon had the K-pop world spiralling, but now, a new rumour is stirring up the BTS and TWICE fandoms ARMY and ONCE, respectively. BTS' J-Hope and TWICE's Nayeon have found themselves at the center of fresh speculation, with fans going wild over a viral video that appears to compile "evidence" of a romantic relationship between the two idols.
The rumors surrounding J-Hope and Nayeon's alleged relationship have taken over social media. The speculations stemmed from a recent TikTok video, which has racked up an impressive 400,000 views, that has compiled a series of clips that appear to show the two K-pop idols in the same place at the same time.
Hinting that the two have been in a romantic relationship since 2022, the viral video highlights one incident where J-Hope and Nayeon both attended the same restaurant for an event around the same time.
The video reveals another intriguing piece of evidence, showing the BTS rapper and the Twice member at the same location, but at different times in 2023. Nayeon posted a photo in October, while J-Hope shared a similar photo in April. The internet believes they may have intentionally spaced out their posts to avoid raising eyebrows about their personal lives.
The latest "evidence" emerged in January 2025, featuring the two taking "couple-like" photos in the same post, albeit from different locations.

Such rumors also often lead to fan wars. However, in a refreshing update, fans are finding the J-Hope and Nayeon dating rumours hilarious.

One fan wrote, "Just saw IG ARMYs saying that J-Hope and Nayeon may be dating based on a few photos. And not a single negative comment; both armies and ones seemed happy and supportive. So, I see that dating is not a problem, as long as the person is not problematic. Ykwim"
