BTS leader RM has found himself at the center of dating rumors after briefly following actress Ahn Eun-jin on Instagram.
The unexpected social media interaction quickly caught the attention of fans, particularly because RM has generally kept his Instagram following list limited, making his sudden decision to follow Ahn Eun-jin stand out.
Ahn Eun-jin, best known internationally for her role in the hit Korean drama Hospital Playlist, soon saw her Instagram comment section flooded with messages from fans after RM’s follow was noticed.
Some fans immediately began speculating about a possible romantic connection between the two, with comments questioning whether Ahn Eun-jin could be RM’s girlfriend. Others, however, urged fans not to read too much into a simple social media follow.
Several ARMYs came to Ahn Eun-jin’s defense, emphasizing that she should not be targeted or criticized over something that may have been nothing more than a casual follow—or even an accidental tap.
“If they are really dating, I would actually be happy for them,” one fan reportedly commented, praising Ahn Eun-jin as a warm and talented person who would make a good match for RM.
Other fans similarly pointed out that RM is free to follow whoever he wants, arguing that a social media follow alone should not be treated as evidence of a romantic relationship.
The situation took another turn when RM quietly unfollowed Ahn Eun-jin. Rather than putting the speculation to rest, however, the unfollow only fueled further discussion online.
Some fans interpreted the move as a sign that the original follow may simply have been accidental. Others criticized fans who had flooded Ahn Eun-jin’s Instagram comments with references to RM, saying the reaction had gone too far and could have made the actress uncomfortable.
Calls for fans to respect Ahn Eun-jin’s personal space also grew as screenshots and comments surrounding the incident circulated online.
At this time, neither RM nor Ahn Eun-jin has confirmed that they are in a relationship. There is also no concrete evidence linking the two romantically beyond RM’s brief Instagram follow.
For now, the dating rumors remain speculation stemming from a social media interaction, and it is unclear whether RM’s follow was intentional, accidental, or simply unrelated to any romantic interest.
