BLACKPINK member Jennie has sparked renewed online speculation regarding a rumored romance with BTS member V after fans claimed she dropped intentional hints in her July music video for “Less Than A Lover,” the lead single from her extended play Fallen Angel, as reported by Koreaboo.
The Bottom Line
- Fans on social media isolated specific clips from Jennie’s music video, arguing the male lead’s styling closely mirrors BTS member V.
- Other social media users pushed back against the theory, comparing the music video’s male protagonist to other individuals previously linked to Jennie, with some questioning whether the visual representation depicted Tae or Kai.
- The online debate surrounding the music video coincides with recent, unverified witness accounts claiming Jennie and V were spotted together overseas.
Fanned Flames in Fallen Angel’s Visuals
The online discourse centers squarely on the aesthetics of the “Less Than A Lover” music video. Released in July as the lead single from Fallen Angel, the project quickly drew microscopic scrutiny from dedicated fandoms. Social media users circulated isolated clips, pointing to specific wardrobe choices and styling details of the male protagonist that they argued were intentional nods to V.

While some users posted side-by-side comparisons to bolster the connection, a vocal contingent of fans pushed back against the narrative entirely. Those skeptical of the theory argued that the styling of the male lead bore a closer resemblance to other men who have been romantically tied to Jennie in the past.
Contrasting Fan Theories and Past Romors
As the debate escalated online, users sparred over the identity of the aesthetic inspiration behind the video’s character. Shifting the focus away from BTS, several commenters suggested the outfit and shoe combinations looked remarkably similar to past public figures associated with the BLACKPINK star. Social media users specifically questioned the wardrobe choices, with some observers becoming confused and asking whether the person represented was Tae or Kai, while others argued that the individual’s specific footwear and shorts combination did not match V’s style.

This digital tug-of-war arrives as speculation over the alleged relationship between Jennie and V continues to bubble past the screen. Koreaboo reported that the latest wave of online theories was further refueled by an alleged witness account placing the two K-pop stars together overseas, though no official confirmation or verified evidence has verified the claim.
