Are BLACKPINK’s Jisoo and football star Son Heung-min DATING? Singer's agency issues formal statement

The rumours linking BLACKPINK's Jisoo and South Korean football star Son Heung-min may be old, but they never seem to die down. Every now and then, whenever either of them makes international headlines, the internet goes back into a frenzy, digging up the old speculation about a secret romance between the two. The buzz first exploded in 2021 when fans noticed that Jisoo and Son Heung-min had apparently returned to South Korea from France on the same day. That single detail was enough to send fans into overdrive. People started connecting dots from the past, like Jisoo attended one of Son's football matches in England back in 2019, and even pointed out that the two were supposedly spotted wearing similar bracelets.

Are Jisoo and Son Heung-min dating?

Social media was flooded with theories, fan edits, and "evidence," turning the rumour into a massive topic that crossed over from K-pop to football communities.

Jisoo's agency issues statement

The constant chatter eventually prompted YG Entertainment, Jisoo's agency, to issue an official statement denying any romantic involvement between the singer and the footballer. Despite the clear denial, the story still pops up from time to time, proving just how much fascination there is around two of South Korea's biggest global stars.

Even years later, the Jisoo and Son Heung-min dating rumour remains one of the most talked-about celebrity link-ups in the K-world.

What did the agency say?

"We would like to make it clear that all dating rumours related to BLACKPINK's Jisoo are groundless. We have been closely observing the situation so far but as the rumours are spreading internationally, we are concerned about the damage that they will present to the artist so we would like to clarify the wrong information. We earnestly ask you to refrain from reckless speculation."

Though conversations about the couple have never quite vanished from fan circles, the announcement momentarily muted the online excitement.

Chand Mera Dil Box Office collection day 1: Lakshya-Ananya’s romantic drama BEATS Ek Din amid tough competition

Chand Mera Dil box office collection day 1: Lakshya Lalwani and Ananya Panday's romantic drama Chand Mera Dil finally hit theatres on May 22, 2026. The film, which has received mixed reactions from both audiences and critics, opened to a rather slow start at the box office. Backed by Karan Johar's production house, the intense love story struggled to create much pre-release buzz, which clearly reflected in its opening day numbers. Still, considering the limited hype, its Day 1 collection can be considered decent.

Chand Mera Dil box office collection day 1

According to Sacnilk, Chand Mera Dil collected Rs 2.90 crore net on its first day from 4,944 shows. This takes its total India gross to Rs 3.39 crore so far, with an overall occupancy of 17.31%. While not explosive, the numbers show some interest, particularly in urban centres.

The film is facing stiff competition at the box office. It is going head-to-head with the previous week's release Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Sara Ali Khan, Rakul Preet Singh, and Wamiqa Gabbi. On top of that, it also has to contend with the big Hollywood release Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu.

However, the Lakshya-Ananya starrer did manage to outperform Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi's Ek Din, which opened with just Rs 1.15 crore on its first day.

About Chand Mera Dil

Directed by Vivek Soni, Chand Mera Dil is an emotionally heavy romantic drama that explores the complexities of young love and the harsh realities of adulthood. While the film may not have set the box office on fire on Day 1, its performance over the weekend will be crucial in determining its final fate. With mixed reviews doing the rounds, the coming days will show whether strong word-of-mouth can help the film pick up pace or if it will continue to struggle.

The IMDb summary of the film read, "Chronicles the intertwined lives of engineering students as they navigate academic challenges, forge friendships, and discover themselves in university."

Drishyam 3: Is Telugu version of Mohanlal-starrer dominating Malayalam original in US?

It's Mohanlal's birthday today. As he turns 66, Georgekutty and family return once again. Jeethu Joseph's Drishyam 3 is all set to hit theatres today. For the unversed, both Drishyam, which had released in 2013, and Drishyam 2, which premiered on OTT in 2021, gave a massive positive reaction form the viewers. The curiosity over what exactly happens next to Georgekutty and his family is the key reason why the viewers have shown immense interest in the film's third instalment.

Telugu version of Mohanlal's film popular than Malayalam original in US?

The massive buzz around Drishyam 3 is getting bigger by the day. Interestingly, the interest in the film is high in the overseas market. According to a tweet, a netizen has shown how the Telugu version of the Mohanlal starrer is getting more attention and traction in the US when compared to the original Malayalam version. One of the key reason for this trend is the huge popularity of Telugu cinema in North America over the last few years. With films such as RRR, Pushpa: The Rise and Salaar becoming massive hits worldwide, Telugu audiences in the US have increased. Hence, dubbed Telugu versions of major South Indian films are also being lauded.

In a tweet that has gone viral, a netizen has posted "This is why people come to Hyderabad for movie promotions. As you can clearly see, the Telugu version of #Drishyam3 is dominating malayalam original in the USA."

Jeethu Joseph admits to this 'mistake' in Drishyam 3

According to Joseph, the main idea of the story was "whose side would you take" after getting to know that both families are right and wrong in situations. According to the director, watchers came to offer sympathy to Georgekutty and his family, and not mother Geetha. This, according to Joseph said, happened because he failed to maintain balance in the narrative. "After watching the movie, I realised I had made a mistake because that balancing didn't happen. Everyone stood firmly with Georgekutty and his family. If you think about it, can we really blame Geetha Prabhakar? Her son has gone missing, and she is desperately trying to uncover the truth. From her perspective, Georgekutty is manipulating everything. How could she tolerate that? Her son never confessed his wrongdoing to her, so she still isn't ready to believe what actually happened. As a mother, she does not know the truth. That was the original spark behind Drishyam," Joseph said.
