BTS’s Jungkook “Hints” At Alleged Girlfriend aespa’s Winter With Instagram Update

BTS‘s Jungkook has fans buzzing again after updating his Instagram with characters from the popular Netflix anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.

The internet wasted no time connecting it to his rumored girlfriend, aespa star Winter.

Jungkook is a well-known anime enthusiast. So when he recently praised the acclaimed 2022 series during a fan Q&A, everyone took note.

He then put his words into action by setting David (the show’s male lead) as his profile picture and choosing Lucy (the female lead) as the cover image for his music highlight reel. It didn’t take long for fans to notice something.

Lucy is a short-haired blonde — a look that mirrors Winter’s current look for aespa’s LEMONADE era almost too closely to ignore.

Side-by-side comparisons flooded Twitter and TikTok almost immediately, with fans pointing out the near-identical hair color and cut.

Jungkook and Winter have been at the center of dating rumors since late 2025, sparked by alleged matching tattoos and fan-captured sightings. Neither HYBE nor SM Entertainment have confirmed or denied the rumors.
