Chapter 166 I Don't Believe It

the group is, the more sasaeng fans there are, this is unavoidable. Groups like TVXQ and Super Junior in the past have also encountered a lot of these situations, so EXO will also have to slowly get...“o”

What is Taeyeon Irene

Originally annoyed at seeing Wu Se-hoon's pool, Ji Kyung-won was taken aback by his reaction. For a moment, he couldn’t figure out what he meant by all that he said in one breath. He took the phone he offered and asked with a furrowed brow.

And all the other members' attention was drawn to this side, they unconsciously approached, and some even took out their phones to check it out after hearing it.

“Someone online exposed photos of you and senior Taeyeon from Girls' Generation dating. You can take a look yourself…”

"How is that possible."

Qi Jingyuan casually replied with a sound, then lowered his head to look. On his phone was a page for a news alert, and the shining title at the top gave him a start.

No way, I'm dating Taeyeon unnie

Seeing this press release title, a strange and indescribable absurdity suddenly arose in Chi Jingyuan's heart.

The text content is scarce, besides a title and speculation from self-media, there are just a few attached photos. As he looked down, he saw several consecutive photos of himself and Kim Tae-yeon in the same frame.

In the photo, he and Kim Tae-yeon are both in casual wear, sitting in a corner of a restaurant. The two are seated opposite each other at a square table, leaning over to whisper in each other's ears, very close together.

Apart from this, the rest of the photos are similar in angle, just with different actions. Besides speaking, there are photos where he is also very focused on gesturing something on the table.

It's obvious that these are paparazzi photos, and the angles are definitely strange. Several of the shots seem choppy, with things around the two people blurred out. However, from these photos' perspectives, you can tell they're pretty close, their relationship is intimate. With such a "suspected romance" headline, it's very convincing, and anyone would be led astray.

Online, there are often rumors and speculations about the relationships of XO members. They've seen quite a bit over the years, but most of it is baseless gossip and just treated as a joke.

But this time, it actually came with photos, no wonder Wu Shixun was surprised and delighted when he saw them.

It's just this photo...

After seeing these paparazzi photos, Chi Jingyuan had already calmed down a little. He could tell that the photos were real, but he couldn't quite remember when they were taken.

"See"

Seeing Ji Jingyuan's expression, Wu Shixun hurriedly asked anxiously, "Really How could this happen How could someone be so careless and have their picture taken like that when eating out"

"Oh my, I saw it too."

"Oh, really"

"This..."

Then, the other members also saw the increasingly heated news and press releases at this time. After exclaiming in surprise, it seemed as if they felt something was amiss, and tacitly fell silent. They stared at their phones, watching the news while secretly sizing up Chi Jingyuan with eerie eyes.

Given EXO's current popularity and momentum, another member being revealed to be in a relationship is truly no small matter. While it wouldn't be as big of an issue if it were any other member, the fact that it's someone like Ji-sung makes the impact on the group even more difficult to fathom.

How loyal and crazy are the wives and girlfriends of idol group members, other members know best.

Moreover, in the members' impression, Pool Jingyuan's love or ambiguous object should be Irene of red velvet, it is obviously not Taeyeon.

When did he get together with this sister He's really capable, isn't he A combination of colleagues from the same company but different generations, walking on two boats.

But this time, once it's been exposed, he's probably in some trouble...

They didn't really doubt the authenticity of the events because the photos did seem quite intimate.

Several members wore expressions of different hues: some worried, some playful, and some excited. Among them, Bian Berhyen's eyes were the most peculiar. He pursed his lips as if he wanted to ask something, but after a moment's hesitation, he remained silent.

I saw on the internet that this news seems to be a post from a well-known forum user, with photos uploaded by him. After the post was published, it quickly became popular and was widely shared by other websites...

Do Kyung Soo then said, "I just saw a message about this," and asked again, “Seong Yuan, is it really true You and Taeyeon sunbae…”

"Fake, we didn't date."

At that time, Chi Jingyuan, who had been staring at his phone the whole time, said in a tired voice,

"Fake"

"That picture..."

As soon as Ji Jingyuan uttered those words, the entire practice room fell silent for a moment before the eerie atmosphere that had just settled instantly returned to normal. Jin Junmian and the others quickly crowded over, bombarding him with questions.

Some members breathed a sigh of relief, but others seemed somewhat disappointed.

"This photo..."

Ji-sung took a closer look and finally remembered when the photo was taken: “I remember now, this was taken two months ago. After Taeyeon and I finished work, we went to the hotel to have dinner together. I remember that at the time, the food hadn't arrived yet, and we were discussing her solo album, so we were leaning closer.”

"He said, pointing to a few obvious cuts in the news photo: 'Those aren't the intimate photos and lovey-dovey pictures they claimed because of course our managers and assistants were there. We were all sitting at the same table. This photographer knew it, but for hype, he cropped out the assistants beside us.'

"

"Oh, I see."

"Well..."

After Park Ji-won's definite explanation, several members looked again at the photos in the news and nodded in agreement, becoming more relaxed and less tense than before. Among them, Park Chan-wook continued to stare at his phone, his expression seeming to think it wasn't quite satisfying enough: "qgjia Fake I feel like this photo really looks like they're dating."

Ji Jingyuan returned his phone to Wu Shixun and started browsing the internet on his own. He discovered that the news of "his love affair" was spreading rapidly, with heated discussions everywhere. Suddenly overwhelmed, he couldn't find the words to say anything. Hearing this, he helplessly raised his head: "Of course, I know who my girlfriend is."

"Then who is your girlfriend" Park Chan-hyeok immediately countered.

“...”

Chi Jingyuan opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He sighed and shook his head, continuing to look at his phone.

If it's fake news, you should contact the company to clarify immediately. It's already trending, and the situation is getting worse. The impact is really bad.

As Captain Kim Jun-myeon stood up at this moment, he reminded everyone. At this point, he had already seen online that Ailee and sone were simultaneously in disbelief while attacking each other frantically.

Pool Jingyuan also saw the anxiety and anger of the fans. He nodded, just about to call his agent, when Lee Chenghuan's phone directly called in.

"Jingyuan, you and Taeyeon..."

Indeed, Lee Seung-hwan came for this too. His voice was anxious and somewhat agitated, clearly having seen the news and photos and believing them to be true. Although his tone carried a hint of complaint, he clearly controlled his emotions, simply inquiring about the truth of the matter.

“Fake, no dating, bro…” Ji-sung told Seungwan the explanation he and the other members had just given. He clearly heard this brother let out a sigh of relief. Ji-sung knew that feeling of being caught off guard after seeing the news, better than anyone else. He understood the weight and significance Ji-sung held within EXO.

Li Chenghuan's tone immediately eased, and after a brief pause of several seconds, he quickly said, "Oh my, I was really startled just now. Since that's the case, then it's good. I'll go to a meeting right now to discuss how to clarify things..."

Let me clarify something, our fanbase is already going crazy.

Chi Jingyuan urged, then asked with some confusion: "Didn't the company receive any news from the media in advance Such fake news should have been stopped..."

"It probably isn't. I heard it came from a forum, and because there were pictures, it just blew up…" Lee Seung-hwan thought for a moment and replied somewhat uncertainly: "I'll ask during the meeting later. By the way, Jingyuan, are you at the company now"

"Yeah, we're all in the practice room."

"Okay, let's talk when we meet..."

"Got it."

After hanging up the phone, Chi Jingyuan ignored the gazes of the other members who kept looking at him. He just rubbed his temples with a tired expression. Then, his phone began to vibrate incessantly, with friends and relatives sending messages of surprise and concern after seeing the news.

Feeling like he was suffering an undeserved misfortune, Chi Jingyuan felt a little weary. He wasn't even in the mood to look at it right now, and besides, he could already guess who would be texting him to inquire and ask about the situation.

Meanwhile, outside, the news spread and fermented at an extremely fast pace online. It instantly topped the hot searches of several websites. The Kpop circle was already in shock, especially fans of Girls' Generation (SONE) and EXO (EXO-L). They were all stunned by this seemingly real news, feeling like the world was collapsing.

"Ahhhh..."

During a break between classes in an afternoon at Ruicao District High School, a sharp scream pierced the air, abruptly silencing the somewhat boisterous atmosphere.

"Oppa is dating!"

"Woooooo...."

"Greetings."

Immediately following, besides screams, were all sorts of exclamations, containing countless negative emotions like sadness, anger, jealousy, and frenzy. The entire classroom was suddenly immersed in a sea of hysteria.

Almost half the class were EXO fans, or at least followed the trend and chased after the hottest boy group right now. At this time, as the member with the most solo stans within the group, Park Ji-sung was exposed to dating rumors, naturally causing an outcry and a scene of mourning.

"Don't worry, this is just online gossip, and S hasn't made any statement yet... And I wouldn't believe that Oppa would be in a relationship right now. XO is so popular right now, no, it's impossible."

A fan who seemed more composed stepped forward to comfort her classmates. Although her face looked very grim, she still forced herself to cheer up and kept repeating the same phrase.

And as she spoke, her complexion also improved magically.

"But that photo..." A girl chimed in with a sob.

“It must be fake, it's obviously filmed in a restaurant. Would any idol who is truly dating go on a date in such a public place They wouldn't even have time to worry about being discovered! It's clearly just friends eating together.”

"I won't believe it until there's an official statement from the company!"

"That's it!"

As the tension among them eased, the oppressive atmosphere that had descended earlier also dissipated. In a short time, fueled by chatter and speculation, they all agreed the news was false. A wave of relief washed over them, but it was quickly replaced by anxious anticipation as they waited for an official announcement from s. They couldn't even focus on their classes anymore.

This is their last hope, if it's confirmed that this love news, I don't know how many girls will directly collapse and cry in that moment.

Real-life fans might tone down their enthusiasm due to various reasons, but online there are no such restrictions and things tend to get more extreme. After the news became trending, within half an hour, Kim Tae Yeon's s was already besieged by overly zealous fans.

"That's really disgusting, can you at least have some shame"

"An 89-year-old woman still has the audacity to flirt with younger men It's truly disgusting."

"Die! Die! Die! Die! Die! Die!"

"Don't even look in the mirror and see what you're like Don't be delusional, Oppa would never look at you."

As a fan of the K-pop group EXO, which has now become a three-generation idol group, Ali is part of one of the largest and most powerful fanbases in the Korean music scene today. Among them, Ji-sung alone accounts for one-third of the entire team's fanbase, surpassing the combined fandom of all other groups.

Besides Red Person fans and Business fans, due to his superior appearance and sunny image, Chi Jingyuan's solo fans, especially wife fans and girlfriend fans, are particularly numerous.

In the hearts of these fans, Oppa is their own, their dream, and their spiritual support.

When one's own dreams and hopes are exposed, defiled, occupied, and destroyed, it is difficult for even the most fanatical fans to be rational. They will only unleash the most venomous language, venting their unbearable grief and anger onto that damned woman.

Although this love news has not been confirmed, it has dominated the headlines in a short period of time.

And the reaction of Girls' Generation's fans, SONE, at first was rather intriguing. They split into two camps.

The first reaction when seeing this news was: "Ah, it's finally Taeyeon's turn."

Because of the continuous exposure to love affairs last year, from YoonA to Hwayoung, it had an unimaginable impact on their fan bases. Actually, a lot of SONE (少女時代粉絲) have already left, and those who remained have long since become desensitized. No matter what they think deep down, they've subconsciously prepared themselves for this.

So after seeing this news, although surprised, the reaction wasn't too extreme. Even after the rumors about Taeyeon's boyfriend being EXO's Jiung, some fans even thought it was pretty good.

He is handsome, a male idol, the most successful young actor who has transformed his career, and it's said that his family background is also very good.

If it were yuan, it wouldn't be unacceptable either...

Some sone couldn't help but have this thought.

On the other hand, some fans are more normal. They say Taeyeon is their bottom line and they can't stand any relationships. So like Alice, they directly go to all sorts of places, including Ji-seong's

>>>

However, to be honest, given Pool Kyung-won's image and achievements over the years since his debut, as well as EXO's current popularity, many SONEs can't really find any obvious points of attack. They can only resort to personal attacks that miss the mark out of anger.

"This little white face, how does he deserve Taeyeon! No matter how you look at him, he's just awkward."

Just looking at his face, you know he's not a good person. There have been constant rumors about him online, and he's such a trash player. I hope he dies soon.

"Does anyone want to go to Chingtai with me to petition and get him deported"

Originally, the first category of sone remained calm and composed as they had anticipated this situation, so they did not join the fray. However, under the onslaught of relentless insults directed at Kim Taeyeon by other fans, they could no longer remain silent and retaliated. In a short span of time, fan groups from Girls' Generation and EXO engaged in heated online attacks against each other.

Although the fan base has shrunk, thanks to Girls' Generation's years of effort and national recognition, the two sides are comparable in terms of size. However, when it comes to fighting power, Aeri is currently the clear victor.

However, because Kim Tae-yeon and Ji Kyung-won were very well-known friends in the industry before, some fans on both sides usually had a pretty good relationship. So there was actually a considerable number of fans who held back and didn't lose their reason because of this unconfirmed rumor.

And seeing today's hottest news is obviously not just fans and viewers, including many insiders in the circle are also excitedly eating melons.

EXO and Girls' Generation, as the hottest boy band and girl group currently, their members' dating news is truly exciting.

But some people's moods aren't that good, like someone who is running a schedule, napping in the nanny car, but is woken up by a scream from their group sister, and then they see a news article about Jennie.
