The latest speculation started during a recent BTS interview, where Jungkook mentioned he had made around 200 Dubai chewy cookies, a snack that’s been trending across Korea, and gave them out to staff. What seemed like a harmless, heartwarming comment didn’t stay that way for long.
Fans quickly connected it to Winter, who is known for liking the same dessert. From there, posts began spreading across online communities, framing the coincidence as another piece of “evidence” linking the two idols.
