EXO Kai’s “Savage” Ex-Girlfriend Comments Linked To BLACKPINK’s Jennie
EXO’s Kai has once again found himself at the center of relationship speculation after a recent variety show clip began circulating online, with many linking his comments to BLACKPINK’s Jennie.

During the show, Kai was asked a hypothetical question about how he would react if an ex-girlfriend repeatedly called and bothered him. His answer was short and firm.
I’d probably block [my ex] before it even gets to that.
— EXO’s Kai

While the question was general and not directed at anyone specific, the clip quickly gained traction due to Kai’s past public relationship with Jennie.

Kai and Jennie confirmed their relationship in early 2019 before breaking up shortly after, citing busy schedules.

Since then, neither idol has spoken about the relationship, but that has not stopped fans from repeatedly revisiting it whenever either star makes a vague comment about relationships or exes.

Following the clip, many of Kai’s fans pushed back against attempts to link him to Jennie.

Similar reactions were drawn when both Kai and Jennie attended the 2025 Melon Music Awards. Although the two did not interact publicly, speculation flared after Jennie performed “like JENNIE.” Many alleged the BLACKPINK star smirked when singing the popular lyrics about exes.

Despite the repeated attempts to connect the two, there is no evidence suggesting they are in contact or involved in any way.
