But while J-Hope and V kept things breezy in a tank top and T-shirt, Jungkook stood out among the tourists in bikinis and swim shorts. Despite local highs climbing past 80 degrees Fahrenheit this week, the star was spotted wearing long pants and a full jacket.
So some tourists spotted Jungkook with JHope and V at a popular swimming spot. But he was the only one who was heavily clothed while the others were swimming. He’s afraid to show his couple tattoo. #정국 #윈쿡 pic.twitter.com/hps2wu1iaO

Photos and clips from the members’ outing spread quickly online, and fans wasted no time slamming Jungkook’s clothing choice, alleging that he was wearing the jacket to cover his “couple tattoo” with aespa’s Winter.
His members are wearing tank tops, while Jungkook is dumb enough to wear a jacket in the heat just to cover the couple tattoo. he’s so cowardly and stupid. 😭😭 https://t.co/67uc6ZciWY

Speculation about the pair’s reported matching tattoos has been circulating since December last year, when fans claimed (amid existing dating rumors) that both idols had tattoos of three cartoon dog faces on their arms.

Since then, Jungkook and Winter have repeatedly been accused of covering the tattoos up in public. Other fans, meanwhile, have argued that there’s no proof the pair even have matching tattoos at all.

While many say Jungkook’s jacket was an obvious attempt to keep his tattoo hidden this week, others have come to the BTS member’s defense, suggesting he never intended to soak up the sun at the river to begin with. According to some fans and tourists who spotted the group, Jungkook only visited his fellow members for a few minutes before leaving, while J-Hope and V stuck around to enjoy the water.
#Jungkook stopped by for some time to film Taehyung and Hobi and then left to eat as he already said on his live. This is why he wasn’t swimming with them. So Jokers should stop over analyzing assuming nonsense. Taehyung and Hobi left soon after having a good time 💜💚
