aespa Winter, RIIZE Sungchan Dating Rumor Resurfaces: 'I Think the Relationship Is Real'

1 month ago 19

aespa Winter and RIIZE Sungchan are once again embroiled in a dating rumor. This time, some claim it's "real."

In the online community Nate Pann, a post circulated and garnered over 200,000 views as the original post (OP) speculated the real score between the two SM Entertainment artists.

In July, Winter and Sungchan's dating rumor first sparked after noticing the latter's interesting reaction when saying the word, "winter," which is coincidentally the same name as his dog.

The aespa singer shares the same love for puppies as the male idol.

This time, more "evidence" was laid down to support this suspicion, including the many times that their interests, texting manner, and items overlapped as if trying to show that they are a "couple," subtly.

First, they have similar sparkly in-ear monitors and did a sudden talk about apples just a day apart on Weverse last month. They also both love BingBingbar ice cream, hamburgers, and fries, both chose Switzerland as the place they want to visit and use the same (ahh) slang using the Korean letter for "A."

Lastly, Winter's past Instagram profile picture also resurfaced where she featured Bambi, the deer, the animal that is often associated with Sungchan's facial features.

When these proofs were shared online, MYs (aespa fans) and BRIIZEs (RIIZE fandom) took to the comments to defend the idols. They stated that the "proof" is weak and does not prove that they could be in a relationship by only looking at their similar items.

"The apple is a meme among RIIZE and the Bambi (character) was chosen by fans in Bubble and matched the profile picture with friends. Other RIIZE members also like BingBingBar and I know they talked a lot about it but he never brought it up (again)."

The netizen continued to explain and said:

"As for Switzerland, he said it once like 22 years ago and never said it again. Is this a joke? Kim Minjung (Winter) doesn't like hamburgers and only likes fries so much that she even says, 'I'm going to order French fries.'

What does that have to do with Sungchan liking hamburgers? Stop obsessing over peaches, fries, and the name of the AirPods. They are just just foods that they like."

However, some internet users are insisting that the dating rumor is real, adding how the two stars are always on their phones even during group schedules.

"I would have just let this slide, but when I watch the behind-the-scenes, I see Sungchan next to the members, texting and typing so hard on his phone. I think their relationship is real. I believe it."
"They look so good together."

SM has yet to make an official statement about it.
