TWICE Mina Dating Rumor With NCT Jeno

Back in August of this year, the status of TWICE member Mina's dating life was questioned after reports of her being in a relationship with NCT member Jeno surfaced online.

The dating rumors between the two idols surfaced after attention was drawn to the fact that Jeno had reportedly followed Mina on Instagram, but later unfollowed her after an hour.

While some argued that Jeno following Mina was simply an accident, especially since Jeno was not following anyone during at the time the incident happened, it still raised suspicion that the two idols are in a romantic relationship.

Not only that, but many even compared their situation to that of BLACKPINK Jennie and BTS V's case, wherein the latter had accidentally followed the "Shut Down" singer on Instagram back in December of last year.

This was then followed by the two idols becoming embroiled in dating rumors, and subsequently with photos of Jennie and V together getting leaked online.

In addition to Mina being "accidentally" followed by Jeno, some also reason that the two are hinting at their relationship through their similar Instagram handles.

'Hints' to Mina and Jeno's Relationship

Mina's Instagram handle is currently "mina_sr_my," while Jeno's is "leejen_o_423." Due to both of them using two underscores, this led others to think that this was a "couple" thing for them to do.

Another "hint" that others found was how Mina and Jeno coincidentally tested positive for COVID-19 with little gap from each other. Mina announced she was positive of the virus back on May 24, while Jeno announced his on June 2. This led others to believe that the two idols were together prior to the results.

And lastly, one more "hint" that netizens found was the Mina and Jeno are friends on Steam, a platform for playing and discussing games. It was also revealed that the two plays games together on the platform.

While many are arguing that there are far too many hints for their relationship, some have simply dismissed it as it seemed like people are overthinking it too much. Others have also expressed their support if they are indeed dating.

As of this writing, Mina and Jeno's respective agencies, JYP Entertainment and SM Entertainment, commented about the matter.

But as of now, Mina is currently single and is not dating anyone publicly, nor did she have any confirmed relationships in the past.
