TWICE Jihyo: Embarrassing Fan Comments Flood Rumored Boyfriend’s Instagram

Social media users have directed criticism toward Olympic skeleton gold medalist Yun Sung Bin after a TikTok video alleging a romantic connection with TWICE member Jihyo went viral, sparking a wave of comments on his Instagram account. The video, which has garnered over 520,000 views as of February 18, 2026, claims to demonstrate a link between Jihyo’s stated musical preferences and a recent Instagram post by Sung Bin.

The attention quickly shifted to Sung Bin’s Instagram comments section, where numerous users began posting about Jihyo, a development described by some as “embarrassing,” according to screenshots circulating on social media. “This is highkey embarassing,” one user posted on X (formerly Twitter), accompanied by a screenshot of the comments.

The incident has ignited a discussion about the pressures faced by K-pop idols regarding their personal lives. Several users expressed concern over the intensity of the online attention directed at Sung Bin, particularly given that neither Jihyo nor Sung Bin have publicly confirmed any relationship. “This is why idols don’t talk about their relationship cuz y’all act so weird abt it! Y’all are up in that man’s comments posting pics of jihyo over an unconfirmed relationship,” one user wrote on X. Another user stated, “STOP ASSOCIATING HER WITH THAT GUYYYYY FFS.”

Rumors of a relationship between Jihyo and Sung Bin first surfaced approximately one year ago, according to a report from the Korean media outlet SWAY. At the time, both JYP Entertainment, Jihyo’s agency, and representatives for Yun Sung Bin declined to comment on the speculation. The two reportedly met through mutual acquaintances and share a common interest in exercise, with Sung Bin allegedly providing training assistance to Jihyo.

Jihyo recently discussed her views on relationships in an interview with the YouTube channel Narae Style, stating a firm stance against infidelity. “A cheater will cheat no matter what. If that happens, I’d just cut him loose,” she said, adding that she would prefer to conclude a relationship quickly if trust were broken.

As of February 18, 2026, neither JYP Entertainment nor representatives for Yun Sung Bin have issued a statement addressing the recent surge in online speculation or the comments directed at Sung Bin’s Instagram account. The agencies’ silence continues to fuel discussion among fans and observers of the K-pop and sports worlds.
