WEEKLY NAVER

 BTS V Black Pink's Jennie, actor Park Seo-joon, and singer Hwa-sa have all been known to avoid commenting on dating rumors. This has become a new way for stars to respond to dating rumors, as they continue to say no comment.

The dating rumor between V and Jenny surfaced in May last year, with witness stories and photos of a man and woman presumed to be V and Jenny driving in Jeju Island. However, Hive and YG Entertainment initially said they were "difficult to confirm" and made no comments.

 Later, a video was released showing V and Jenny holding hands on a date by the Seine River in Paris, France. Both sides' agencies did not comment, but fans are now in the mood to assume that the devotion of the two is a fait accompli.

Actor Park Seo-joon expressed his position that it was difficult to confirm, neither positive nor negative, to the dating rumor with YouTuber Seuss. Park Seo-joon's agency, Awesome Ent, did not admit or deny it, saying that it's private life, so it's difficult to confirm. 

Seuss also said it is difficult to confirm. Park Seo-joon has a special relationship enough to introduce Seuss to his acquaintances, and photos of the two with their acquaintances were posted on online communities, fueling the dating rumor.

Hwasa (28, real name Ahn Hye-jin) also did not reveal her position on the dating rumor. Her agency P Nation told Ten Asia about Hwasa's dating rumor, saying it's difficult to confirm because it's part of the artist's private life. According to a report on the 30th of last month, Hwasa has been dating a businessman 12 years her senior for 5 years, and she said that when Mr. A was engaged in the music industry five years ago, she developed into her lover through Hwa-sa's active courtship.

The industry's analysis suggests that their 'no comment' is recognition. As cases of stars consistently saying 'no comment' to dating rumors piled up, voices were raised asking whether this trend could be established as a countermeasure. However, opinions differ on whether stars should share their devotion with the public. 

While some believe hiding or lying about one's private life is deceiving fans, others believe the private lives of stars should be acknowledged as theirs and that public and private should be looked at separately.

 Singer Psy signed an exclusive contract with Hwasa on the 'Drenched Show', marking the start of the company. The 2023 'Drenched Show', held at Jamsil Sports Complex Olympic Main Stadium in Seoul, featured a 3 hour performance of Psy's hit songs, including 'It's Art', 'Gentleman', 'New Face', 'Gangnam Style', and 'Celebrity'. The event attracted 35,000 spectators and included a high-quality encore show featuring nostalgic dances, ballads, and rock medleys.

The 'drenched show' stage continued with the water cannons bursting out without rest. The most attention-grabbing scene was the surprise contract performance between Hwasa and Psy. Psy announced an important contract with P Nation, and Hwasa made a surprise appearance on stage. She sang 'Maria' and announced her exclusive contract, bringing attention to the P-Nation family. The audience cheered as Hwasa announced her new status.

Hwasa has confirmed her move to P Nation, as reported by Xports News. P Nation was discussing an exclusive contract with Hwasa, raising expectations. On Psy's 'Drenched Show,' the group announced the signing of the contract on stage. Psy expressed gratitude, stating it would be the first time in Korea to sign a contract at a concert venue. He promised to help Hwasa play great music together in the future.

The announcement of Hwasa's 5-year relationship with a 12-year-old businessman put an end to rumors of a romantic relationship. Hwasa was embarrassed by the sudden dating rumor, as her exclusive contract had recently ended with her former agency. Psy announced Hwasa as his artist on the stage of the 'Drenched Show,' turning the topic away from dating rumors. No mention of dating rumors was made on the stage that day, and nothing was known about their position. However, Psy had Hwasa, and the fact that he was an artist belonging to P Nation gave him a sense of security.

Psy and Kim Jong-un have demonstrated chemistry through their 9th full-length album, 'Cheap 9'. Fans are eagerly anticipating their upcoming synergy at P-Nation. Psy's 'Drenched Show' performance in Seoul continues today, followed by Wonju, Yeosu, Suwon, Boryeong, Iksan, and Incheon. They are expected to meet in Daegu on the 19th and 20th, and Busan on the 26th and 27th.
