As dating rumors between EXO member Kai and Black Pink member Jennie continue to take the internet by storm, Black Pink's previous appearance on SBS variety program 'We Will Channel You' is also garnering attention.
During Black Pink's full group guest appearance on 'We Will Channel You' on December 20, each of the members introduced viewers to their family pets. Jennie's family owned two pet dogs - Kuma and Kai. After bringing Kuma along on one of her schedules, Jennie introduced her family's "oldest" Kai, an 8-year old male Cocker Spaniel.
It turns out that coincidentally, Jennie's family pet dog shares the same name as EXO's Kai - the idol that Jennie is currently involved in a dating scandal with. As Jennie's dog Kai is 8 years old, netizens speculate that it's unlikely the dog was named "after" EXO's Kai.
You can check out Jennie's moments with her strawberry-loving Cocker Spaniel Kai in the clip below (~ 3:54 mark).
I’m not the biggest fan of jennie and have written some criticism in past articles. But dammit I stood up for hyuna and edawn and normalizing idols dating.
Keep in mind before some spiral uncontrollably, she has a solid fan base and so does kai so the backlash wouldn’t be as big or damaging, not enough for them to leave their respective groups.
Ps dispatch didn’t have to go this hard.. this is great because like can you imagine who else is dating???
