Twitter Sparks Another Breakup Rumor Between Nichkhun Of 2PM And Tiffany Of Girls' Generation

In the era of social media, even the slightest remark can spark rumors, and 2PM's Nichkhun is the latest to feel the impact of one simple tweet.

On October 27, Nichkhun tweeted the lyrics to Frank Sinatra's "Strangers in the Night." Since then, Korean and Chinese publications have used the tweet to fuel breakup rumors between the 2PM member with Girls' Generation's Tiffany.

However, the full lyrics of "Strangers in the Night" are romantic, and hint at a long lasting relationship rather than a breakup. In contrast to the Sina report, others have suggested that the tweet is an indication of Nichkhun's romantic feelings towards Tiffany.

"Thank you for freaking me out for no reason," commented Fany Fan on Kpopstarz.

But this is not the first time social media has sparked relationship and breakup rumors amongst K-pop idols.

This past summer, certain K-pop fans were convinced Big Bang's T.O.P. and f(x)'s Krystal were dating, so much so that the two names began trending on Twitter. On July 2, the hashtag #TopandKrystal began trending worldwide, disconcerting many fans of Big Bang and f(x), as there was seemingly no news connecting the two K-pop idols.

A similar phenomenon occurred shortly after Girls' Generation's Taeyeon and EXO's Baekhyun confirmed their relationship with each other.

On Twitter, interest remains strong about the couple, especially because typing in Baekhyun and Taeyeon in the social media search bar automatically generates the words "break up." As a result, many fans still believe there is confirmed news of the pair's breakup, despite it not being the case.

"I was going to type Baekhyun in the search bar and 'Baekhyun Taeyeon break up' popped," tweeted Hunipples94 on July 16. "I don't know how to feel about this."
