Song Da-eun’s TikTok sparks fresh rumours and privacy debate around BTS' Jimin

BTS Jimin and Song Da-eun relationship rumours buzz with elevator video

A simple TikTok video has unexpectedly put BTS’s Jimin back in the spotlight—not for his music, but because of renewed rumours about his relationship with actress Song Da-eun.

The video, shared by Song herself, shows a brief and seemingly casual moment in an elevator that quickly caught fans’ attention and sparked quite a stir online.

In the clip, Song Da-eun is seen rushing out of an apartment building and stepping into an elevator just as Jimin steps out. The K-pop star looks surprised and says, “Oh, you scared me! Did you know I was coming up? I didn’t tell you I was on my way.” Many fans immediately noticed that the setting appeared to be Jimin’s known residence in Seoul, Nine One Hannam, which made the moment feel very private. This led many to call the video a clear invasion of his privacy.

This isn’t the first time rumours linking Jimin and Song Da-eun have surfaced. Fans have pointed to little things like matching accessories, posting on Instagram at similar times, shared movie tastes, and even attending the same public events.

Song has addressed these rumours before—sometimes denying them, other times warning fans about legal consequences if the harassment continued. Yet, every time she posts something that could be interpreted as cryptic, the speculation heats up again.

Online reactions have been mixed but largely critical of the video. Many felt it was disrespectful to share such a personal moment publicly, especially since Jimin has never spoken about these rumours himself. Fans are upset that Song might have crossed a boundary by sharing the clip.

Meanwhile, Jimin’s agency, Big Hit Music, has stayed quiet. They reportedly began looking into the matter but have yet to issue any official statement. This silence has frustrated many fans, especially in South Korea, who feel left in the dark and believe the situation hasn’t been handled transparently.

The whole episode highlights how difficult it is for celebrities to keep their private lives private, especially when rumours and curiosity don’t seem to ever fade.
