However, one idol’s appearance has some under the believe she is romantically connected to V.
BTS’s V | Celine
Of the members of IVE, it is common knowledge that Jang Wonyoung rarely mentions other K-Pop groups. The idol was also never seen attending another group’s concert, that is until today.
Wonyoung was spotted sitting near the top of the seated section at the opening concert, with many commenting on her attendance.

Some have attributed her attendance to her supposed dating rumors with V, which sparked initially following Paris fashion week in October 2025.

Many have pushed back against these rumors, reminding that J-Hope attended IVE’s set at Lollapalooza, so it was not unexpected for the groups to be familiar with each other.
Fans openly dismissed the rumors as well, happy Wonyoung was able to enjoy a concert.
This is the first time we see Wonyoung attending a Kpop concert, so I hope she can enjoy this and everyone can be respectful about it. https://t.co/i0yohoQrEa

I guess J-Hope was the one who invited Wonyoung, since they met before at Lollapalooza. It really feels like he’s the one who got her to attend a K-pop concert for the very first time. This wasn’t even on my 2026 bingo list, pic.twitter.com/MPrX3EJDt9
