No i understand that and its true its a widely used method however im struggling to see your point in mentioning it. Like r u saying that the companies arent denying it because its a good way to get attention ?
Leave it hanging...and they'll keep on talking...

"Neither confirm nor deny..." That's their game...

Orrr they simply dont want to confirm anything which is normal and fine bc its their private lives. Not everything is some game or ploy the reality can be regular. And the reality that seems difficult for some is that those two are happy and together and owe nobody an explanation.

i dont think is publicity because as we mentioned here, hybe has been promoting taek00k a lot lately, thats their most popular couple, and im pretty sure they dont want one of them dating a woman in public

both Veee and Jennie have too many pics leaked to be fake (since last year)
and they are wiining nothing from it, veee gains more publicity if he posts a taek00k video so the fans can cry about it

Yeah i dont think its a publicity stunt either cos they dont need it. The fanservice thing is believable however if hyb3 dont want them dating a woman in public they would have denied the rumours since a year ago when they first started getting attention but they havent. Im not saying Hyb3 wants them dating or wtvr but it i dont think they care unless the idol wants them to say smth.

Also regarding the fanservice, it could genuinely just be two close friends who play around with each other like maybe at the start during the early years it was fanservice but (this may be naive of me) now that theyre literally so successful as a group you would think they wouldnt need fanservice or that their relationship is simply just that of two bandmates turned best friends who have spent everyday tgt for years. Like I saw a tweet from a J3nL1sa account it was a pic of J3nnie and L1sa having dinner tgt . . . How many of us have had a meal with a friend even that of the opposite sex and it be platonic lmao but no they were deadset on the fact that it was a romantic dinner . . . this is why fanservice can be detrimental it deludes ppl into genuinely believing the ships r real.

Agreed. The thing which pisses me off the most are the comments "but we are waiting for the official statement until they say it by themselves(taennie) ,BUT we 10000% sure that these band mates are in a relationship, whatever someone says doesn't matter." One hilarious tweet was "oH honEY, yOu dOnt KnoW wE aRe BeLiEvErs nOt sHiPpers" ...This is entertainment gold.
Pls its the way that a lot of idols especially 3rd gen r in relationships but they choose to keep in secret. I remember Y0ungjae from G0t7 literally gave tips on how to date secretly when he went on this show . . . again like i said if they wanted to keep it a secret or deny they would have

Seriously its laughable at this point about cosplaying thing. When the photographer has confirmed himself that it was them but No a youtuber's theory is above a eye witness. Shippers are so deluded. I'm not a taennie shipper but I don't get it why is to so hard to believe they both could be dating. They were at Harry Styles concert, him with JK and jennie with Rose. Now they are humans, I have never seen this anywhere. Like JB has millions of girl fans but when he was with Selena, everyone was happy. Though shippers are deluded till date that they don't accept his marriage. But these kpop fans can't see them enjoying their lives. I feel its mostly because of themselves too that they fueled the delusions of their fans. It won't be the case with jhope or Namjoon or least popular members but they can't see the younger ones dating. Maybe PJM fans are more sensible that they will protect JM but JK fans are the worst. V is a wildcard.
A group normally has normal fans, shippers, solo Stans. Did you see any other group shippers as much crazy as taekook shipper.....no. the company fed them that much content of teakook that dumb fans want them to marry and settle in another country.
Which is delusion really. I never seen a this much worst ship. Jk fans are worst they are waiting for his album to come out so that they can break records as tea is getting so much in light now.

I'm agreeing, im just sharing shippers insistence and not all these are teenagers, some are grown adults.
I'm totally in favour of this notion that celebs pvt lives are their own, and they don't owe any explanation regarding who they are dating. My country's showbiz is like that, yes there may be speculations or rumors but not as craxy as kpop.
Yes I was agreeing with u too hahah sry if it didn’t seem like it. I rly hope this slowly changes the attitudes towards dating in kpop bc a lot of idols and trainees will look at j3n and t4e and depending on how all of this pans out they might begin to follow in their steps

They won't stop untill they prove their point of view is correct
Chinese fans are leaving him
The girl said she is not her and Don't have any frnd looks like v.
What they will do now....
Honestly that’s good for Tae lol this is purging all the delusional fans. I’ve seen ppl cutting up Tae photocards and cutting up t4ek00k picture lmao.

It’s so funny to me when they use random peoples pictures like do u not think they will speak out and deny it ? Shippers are a social experiment atp

The humor of the flip phone aside, because that was freaking hilarious, why is this armpit trying to message JN about it? That's so weird. I doubt JN will give a crap about whatever goes on at YG's concerts.
I laughed for how they wrote open letter as if he will read it not for flip phone lol. It is hilarious how dumber they will became as time files

The wincest shippers were worse. It was so bad, every female character on the show was killed to appease their fans. When two of the guys married their costars, I think some were very upset. The actor that played the angel used shipper's interest in him to get fans to contribute to his favorite causes and raise money for charity.

Shippers would ask J3nsen and Jar3d about their ship, which was worse than taek00k or jik00k. They were shipping brothers and the father together. The show's family dynamics were incredibly toxic, almost abusive and that added incest to everything else.

Things got bad, really bad. The actors were besties but distanced from each other because of their fan's insistence on coming to fanmeets and conferences to talk about their ship. Eventually, they laughed it off and even pandered, but it was very awkward. I've seen some disgusting btees fanfics, but nothing comes close to wincest, a genre that is about three male relatives in a sexual relationship, sometimes as children. There's also abuse, a mom dying in front of the baby, child abandonment, the supernatural, angels, demons and a lot of violent deaths. It's a hot mess. Btees shipping is mild in comparison. Annoying, but not like that.

How lame ....... He is begging to buy so he can get adds.
Isn't called brainwash
This kind of "promotion" has the potential to backfire spectacularly, and can make both him and the brand look absolutely terrible.

I normally don't care what brands an idol promotes. But this is getting ridiculous. It's grossly manipulative and also unfair to fans. He should just be picking random fans at the concerts to take selfies with their phones, and not limiting it to people who have this specific brand.

I saw some fans trying to justify it, saying that iPhone users talk crap about Samsung users all the time. Maybe that's true, I don't know. But that's some serious logic gymnastics. Something to note is that if I wanted to go to one of his concerts, I wouldn't even bother to pay to be close to the barricade, because I wouldn't want the disappointment of him walking by me like I don't exist all because I won't pay an exorbitant amount of money for that type of phone. There's this elitist attitude in what he's doing that's really rubbing me the wrong way.
