Rumor of aespa's Winter and ENHYPEN's Jungwon being at a private bar room has been debunked

AKP STAFF

A recent dating rumor involving aespa's Winter and ENHYPEN's Jungwon has taken a new turn after one netizen provided more evidence that challenged the original claims.

The rumor initially alleged that the two idols were secretly meeting in a private room at a bar, sparking the initial heated discussion online. The original poster of the rumor claimed that the two idols were secretly meeting at a private bar, providing a short video purportedly showing Winter and featuring a man with his face covered. After seeing the video, viewers speculated that his voice resembles Jungwon's.

However, a keen-eyed netizen presented new photographs indicating that the venue where Winter and Jungwon were allegedly spotted wasn’t a private bar but rather a popular whisky bar that is a common hangout place among celebrities and their friends. The netizen also shared images of Ningning’s recent birthday celebration, revealing that she was also at the same whisky bar.

Additionally, the netizen debunked allegations that Winter and Jungwon were at a Hookah bar to smoke. The netizen provided photos of 'No Smoking' signs, proving that the bar is not a Hookah bar or a bar where customers can smoke.

The netizen also showed another blog photo of the Whiskey bar featuring the same table lamp seen in the video in the initial dating rumor post.

Other netizens commented:

"When people try to explain it like this, others still say, 'Then why did they have to go there of all places?' But honestly, if I had a lot of money, I wouldn’t go to a noisy local pub either — I’d go to a quiet whiskey bar to hang out with friends. LOL."
"It's close to their dorm, and you can just think of it as a regular spot where they meet up with friends. Celebrities have different schedules from ordinary people, so it’s normal for them to be active at night after finishing their schedules. It’s also highly likely they weren’t there alone. The footage could have just been edited to show only the two of them, but they were probably with other people, maybe even some non-celebrities. If they had actually met alone, those Chinese Sasaengs would have filmed it and stirred up the issue long before now — not a month and a half later."
"People are saying they went to a bar with a 'No Smoking' sign to smoke hookah, and some are making sleazy comments like, 'What were they doing alone in a private room?' when in reality, it wasn’t even a private room. It’s just a place near the company that they use often when they want to avoid the public eye. NingNing even had her birthday party there, and staff members seem to frequent it too. So, for the people asking, 'Why did they go there of all places?' — honestly, they sound like their brains are completely empty."
"To be honest, people making a fuss over the location is one thing, but the people whining about the time really confused me. Do they think celebrities live on the same schedule as them? LOL."
"And calling it a 'private room' doesn’t even make sense because it doesn’t have a door."
"These people are just dead set on claiming they went there for hookah as if it’s a fact. LOL. They act like hookah is some kind of must-do activity, but it’s literally something you have to order separately."
"Why are people so curious about this? If they are dating, who cares? If they're not dating, who cares?"
"If they were really dating, then they would go to a hotel instead of such an open bar. If it's a place other aespa members go, then it's a place where you can socialize."
