BLACKPINK’s Jisoo and actor Ahn Bo Hyun are in a relationship, both YG Entertainment and FN Entertainment confirmed on August 3 KST.
This marks a significant moment as it could be the first time YG Entertainment, which manages numerous Korean artists, has officially confirmed one of its talents being in a relationship. Following the news, fans took to social media to shower Jisoo and Ahn Bo Hyun with congratulatory messages, expressing their surprise at the revelation as they had not suspected anything before the official announcement.
The dating rumors between BLACKPINK’s Jisoo and actor Ahn Bo Hyun began with a report from Dispatch, which included photos of the two stars meeting up at Jisoo’s home. Rather than denying the rumors, both YG Entertainment, Jisoo’s agency, and FN Entertainment, Ahn Bo Hyun’s agency, confirmed the relationship, stating, “They are getting to know each other with positive feelings,” and requested the public’s warm support and understanding.
Media outlets reported that Ahn Bo Hyun was seen entering and leaving Jisoo’s residential apartment in Yongsan. It was also mentioned that Ahn Bo Hyun made adjustments to his schedule to match his availability with Jisoo’s, considering her frequent overseas commitments that keep her away from Korea.
Ahn Bo Hyun is seven years older than Jisoo. He began his career in 2007 as a model before transitioning to acting in 2014, making his debut in the KBS2 drama Golden Cross. Ahn gained recognition for his roles in popular dramas such as Descendants of The Sun (2016), Itaewon Class (2020), Yumi’s Cells (2021, 2022), and Military Prosecutor Doberman (2022).
On the other hand, Jisoo made her debut as a member of the Korean pop girl group BLACKPINK in 2016. Currently, the group is embarking on their second world tour called ‘Born Pink’.
