Yes, based on available information, some K-pop idols are dating each other.
Specifically:
- Red Velvet's Joy and Crush confirmed their relationship in 2021, after collaborating on the song "Mayday" in 2020. Their relationship has garnered significant attention from fans globally.
While this example demonstrates that K-pop idols do sometimes date each other, it's important to consider:
-
Privacy: Many idol relationships are kept private due to potential pressures from fans, management, and societal expectations. Therefore, confirmed relationships represent only a small fraction of the actual dating activity within the K-pop industry.
-
Changing Attitudes: While dating was often discouraged in the past, there appears to be a gradual shift towards greater acceptance of idols having personal lives. However, the decision to reveal a relationship remains a complex and personal one.
