According to eyewitnesses, while the two left the venue separately, they allegedly spent considerable time together inside.

Identifying the Idols

The person who made the claim identified Winter through her distinctive red tracksuit, which she had worn in a recent dance challenge video. This detail sparked intense discussion among fans, who began analyzing every recent public appearance of both idols. Some fans even compiled “evidence” from past events where both idols were present, though at different times.

The Evidence Questioned

Industry experts and netizens have raised numerous questions about the validity of the evidence. The post included a video allegedly showing Jungwon, but his face was completely covered – a common practice among K-pop idols trying to maintain privacy. While some claim Jungwon’s voice can be heard in the video, voice analysis experts have noted that the audio quality is too poor for definitive identification.
