The Viral Video Shows What Appears To Be RM And Jisoo Crouching Close To Each Other Below The Stage As They Get Ready To Go Up With Their Microphones.
A video that netizens believe shows RM ( Rap Monster ) BTS ( Bangtan Boys ) and Jisoo BLACKPINK ( Black Pink ) interacting with each other has gone viral on the internet. Yet the fact is not like that.
In the video which has received over 27K likes and over a hundred comments, it shows what looks like RM and Jisoo crouching close to each other below the stage as they get ready to go up with their microphones.
While waiting for the signal to enter the stage, the two were also seen laughing and joking with each other. The female idol in the video comfortably taps RM on the shoulder to point at something or someone behind.
After seeing the video, many netizens became confused because RM and Jisoo were known to have never interacted that closely. Fans also don't often see BTS and BLACKPINK together in the same place.
But longtime K-Pop fans know when that particular moment happens and even reveal the truth behind it. Veteran ARMYs revealed that the video was shot on June 30, 2016, during the KCON held in New York.
Although the woman in the video looks like Jisoo, she is actually Ailee , the singer behind the hit song "I Will Go to You Like the First Snow" which was the OST for the drama " Goblin ."
Considering that the event took place in June 2016, Jisoo obviously couldn't attend the event because BLACKPINK only made their debut in August 2016, and are most likely busy preparing for their debut.
At that time RM and Ailee were appointed to be the MCs of KCON New York, and the video circulating was a behind-the-scenes video where Ailee was constantly chatting with the BTS member.
The viral video also captures the moment when fans asked RM to do aegyo, but were too shy to do so. Ailee then cheered on RM, who ended up reluctantly doing aegyo for them before going on stage.
Do you think Jisoo is similar to Ailee?
