BTS Jimin is facing fresh controversy over dating rumors with actress Song Da Eun after she posted videos of him in her apartment, sparking fan outrage over privacy invasion.
Big Hit Music has remained silent, declining to comment on the situation.
The drama intensified as a viral online post resurfaced an MHN news article linking Song Da Eun to the 2019 Burning Sun scandal. The actress firmly denied the allegations last year.
“I have never engaged in any specific behavior related to clubs, drugs, or any particular behavior related to drugs. I was forced to step down from a drama, and I could not work on commercials and radio shows. I spent every day crying in despair.”

Netizens slammed the news outlet for trying to damage Song Da Eun’s image, calling out the article’s malicious intent and baseless suspicion.
Comments include:
- “HYBE is really hopping on that media play?”
- “The article title is really evil, considering they know it’s not true, but just using it to cause misunderstanding.”
- “Burning Sun….how low can you go.”
- “The reporter really is evil…there’s something called boundaries…they’re really just pushing her to the brink.”
As the situation unfolds, fans continue defending Song Da Eun, accusing media and some so-called Jimin fans of fueling unnecessary hate instead of addressing the privacy breach.
