Last night BTS kicked off their Arirang world tour in Goyang, and even rainy weather couldn’t dull the energy. The show drew fellow idols and celebs — Stray Kids’ Bang Chan and TXT were seen in the crowd — but it was IVE’s Jang Wonyoung showing up that set fandom Twitter buzzing.

Wonyoung was photographed in the seated section, and many fans noted this is unusually public behavior for her; she rarely attends other groups’ concerts. Her presence quickly reignited dating rumors linking her to BTS’s V (Kim Taehyung), which first circulated after Paris Fashion Week in October 2025.

As usual, reactions split: some fans took the pics as “proof,” while many others pushed back — reminding people that idols often cross paths at festivals and fashion events. Several pointed out that J-Hope attended IVE’s Lollapalooza set, so friendships and industry meetups are already a thing. Others urged respect, saying Wonyoung should be allowed to enjoy a concert without harassment.

Quick context for those catching up:

  • Jang Wonyoung debuted with IVE in late 2021 and is known for being low-key about attending other groups’ shows.
  • Kim Taehyung (V) is a BTS member; the current rumors trace back to interactions observed around Paris Fashion Week in October 2025.
  • Members of BTS and IVE have crossed paths publicly before — J-Hope attended IVE’s Lollapalooza set, which fans often cite when pushing back on dating speculation.

Bottom line: Wonyoung attending a BTS concert made for a spicy fandom moment, but there’s no confirmed news — just a lot of Twitter heat. As always, I hope people give idols space to be fans too.
