An on-and-off romance between the K-pop powerhouses, Jennie and G-Dragon’s relationship always stirs headlines. The K-pop artists were first linked in 2021 following a Dispatch report revealing their relationship status. A year later in May 2022, he unfollowed Jennie on Instagram, promoting breakup rumours. What happened between the two remains unknown.
However, their romance doesn’t end here. Earlier in 2024, media reports claimed the two were rekindling the flame. According to rumour mills, the stars got back together in August 2023, and have been dating since. Sightings of the duo in similar attires, sporting matching rings on multiple occasions led fans to believe about the potential reunion. Speculations arose when fans spotted Jennie wearing a scarf in a YouTube vlog earlier this year, a strikingly similar item that G-Dragon wore at a celebrity gathering. Coincidence? Maybe not.
While some netizens are convinced about their romance, others have dismissed it as mere happenstance.
