The news surprised many, as it was expected that the pair would eventually marry and often spoke about each other during their schedules. The resulting speculation has fueled theories over the reason for the break-up, including some tinged in misogyny.

Some have also looked back at the pair’s past actions for any signs or hints of trouble, including a recently re-discovered post.
On April 8, Jung shared an Instagram story update featuring a photo of himself looking up at cherry blossoms with the caption “I saw them, too.”
What stood out about this post in retrospect is that Sooyoung posted a photo of herself in front of cherry blossoms a few days prior on March 31.
A post connecting the recent break-up to the posts gained attention, earning over a million views. It is assumed he posted this as he was unable to share with Sooyoung for whatever reason.
This post now also makes sense 💔😭 https://t.co/hIbWIOSmtZ
