On New Year’s Day, two K-pop stars — Kai from the boy band EXO and Jennie from the girl group BLACKPINK – made their relationship public. The relationship was verified by SM Entertainment, which controls the nine-member boy band EXO, which stated that Kai, 24, whose true name is Kim Jong-in, “has a romantic interest in her.” YG Entertainment, the agency that represents Jennie, 22, also known as Jennie Kim, earlier refuted rumours that the two stars were dating, saying it was ignorant of their relationship. Jennie was also seen getting into Kai’s black car and drove away slowly.
They drove to Sky Park, where Kai parked the car and assisted Jennie in exiting. After that, they took a stroll while holding hands. During their walk, they were also seen taking a photo together. Jennie wore beanies, checkered scarves, and dark-coloured coats with Kai, who released her first solo single SOLO last November. Both of them were frequently seen wearing Converse sneakers with dog-eared backs, implying that their matching shoes were a symbol of their relationship.
