Recently, a video of members Moka and Minju in the HYBE building has been going viral.

In the clip, the two idols were seen collecting food and holding hands as they went back up, and a netizen shared the video and gained attention after joking about how the behavior shows they are “dating.”

While the tweet was meant in a light-hearted way, it did spark concerns from fans about the video being taken. Although it is common for fans to be outside HYBE, netizens shared that it seemed they were being followed, and it felt wrong to be recorded in a place they expected to have some privacy.
