A worrying possibility that has fans scared for the idols involved.
Picture of Jennie and V leaked by the Twitter account
While many theories are circulating on social media, a Twitter user now claims that the account’s owner has edited all of the pictures they have posted. In a long thread, this user who goes by the name of ‘Neon’ explained that they reached out to the account through email, posing as a customer who wanted to get edited pictures of two other public figures in exchange for money.

I send them an email saying I was looking for an edit to create a new scandal. I also let them know that if I was wrong about them, they should just ignore my email. However they replied asking which members I wanted to involve AND— Neon (@Neon86342259) August 24, 2022
According to ‘Neon,’ the account owner got back to them asking which celebrities they wanted to be edited and also informed them that the job would cost more than a three-digit sum in USD.

Some fans also noticed that this account used bot accounts to retweet the pictures to gain more traction, which also has made the genuineness of the photographs questionable. Others have pointed out the discrepancies in the pictures’ quality that might seem suspicious.
Their first post had zero likes but thousands of bots retweeting I was one of the few ones who saw the post before it became viral, if these pics were real why would anyone need to use bots for engagements??? https://t.co/lANxG5b7F6 pic.twitter.com/c57RHxvSeH

Some are speculating that the account has superimposed the idols’ faces on other people’s bodies, or they somehow got their hands on private pictures from both the idols and just merged them together. There are also people who believe these are real pictures attained through illegal means.
Regardless of the legitimacy of the photos, fans are rightfully concerned about the safety and privacy of both Jennie and V. If the allegations about the account owner are true, we might be looking at a severe case of defamation or invasion of privacy.
Gurumiharibo's goal is just to make a mess and earn money.

Taehyung and Jennie dating isn't concerning. What's concerning is the fact that someone is leaking these pictures and violating their privacy.

The labels of both the idols are yet to make a statement on this, though fans are increasing the pressure on them to speak out and protect them both from these malicious attacks.
