The online community was abuzz with controversy when a netizen on the popular Korean forum Pann Nate claimed that NewJeans’ Hanni and RIIZE’s Anton are involved in a romantic relationship.
Despite lacking any supporting evidence, the claim was made solely on the basis of perceived overlaps in their activities.
Hanni, renowned for her exceptional singing abilities in the emerging K-pop group NewJeans, and Anton, a member of the quickly growing boy band RIIZE, were allegedly connected because of the similarities in their recent pursuits.
The individual responsible for spreading the rumor highlighted commonalities such as both artists covering the same English song, taking part in similar challenges around the same time, and appearing to draw inspiration from each other’s artistic styles.
Despite there being no evidence, the rumor still garnered a considerable amount of attention online. However, most netizens viewed it with skepticism and found it more amusing than believable.
Upon seeing the rumor yesterday, another netizen noted its apparent legitimacy, stating, “The similarity between their English song cover and the timing of their challenge was quite convincing. Not to mention, Anton seemed to mimic Hanni’s adlib, and then Hanni began showing a newfound fascination with dinosaurs.”
Despite the baseless nature of the allegation, the majority of responses condemned it and believed it to be an attempt to tarnish the reputations of the two idols.
- “No, it’s not even a typical sponsored item overlapping, but when you see recommendations attached to any random comment like this, it feels like it’s really been flooded. Ugh.”
- “Left a comment on mobile. Won Bin, Sung Chan, now it’s Anton?? So tired of this, seriously, guys, please stop promoting your fan pages.”
- “Left a comment on mobile. You have to present some evidence to get some support, right? What is this?”
- “Left a comment on mobile. Saw it yesterday, it was really intense kekekeke. Even English song covers are the same, doing challenges at similar times, and Anton does it, so they copy his ad-libs, suddenly obsessed with dinosaurs hehe.”
Several individuals even went as far as to accuse HYBE, the entertainment company linked to both groups, of deliberately spreading the rumor for unclear motives.
A concerned fan questioned, “Who is behind the attempt to take down both RIIZE and NewJeans?”They suggested that the rumor may be a part of a bigger plan.
In a show of support for Hanni and Anton, their fans came together to defend the beloved idols and urged others to disregard the baseless rumors.
“Don’t believe the slander from HYBE, a supportive comment exclaimed, emphasizing the lack of credibility surrounding the rumor of NewJeans and RIIZE Fighting.”
