“Previously, V used a sunflower on his Instagram story and Winter posted one too a day later. With just a one-day gap, they both posted photos just showing their eyes. Do they think fans are dumb?”
However, netizens defended the idols, stating that it was natural for idols to know each other.
- “They could be friends, so what? I feel bad for Winter for being targeted by ARMYs.”
- “So what?”
- “They work in the same industry, what’s wrong with being friends? What’s so shocking about this? It’s not that they work in different fields.”
- “It’s not strange because it’s V. He’s a total insider.”
- “Can’t even see the video clearly…why is everyone trying to confirm if they know each other?”
- “V is close with IU, Yoon Eun Hye, and Ha Ji Won, too.”
- “Who cares if they are close?”
Meanwhile, V and Karina’s interactions also went viral online.
