Park Bo Gum publicly confesses to K-pop idol Minnie: ‘I fell in love with your voice two years ago'
Park Bo Gum made the most surprising confession in the latest episode of the Seasons when he publicly revealed falling in love with the voice of a Thai-K-pop idol two years back. When Life Gives You Tangerines star has been rumoured to be dating quite a few industry colleagues over the years, but back in 2023, while performing at Music Bank in Mexico, i-dle's (formerly known as (G)I-DLE) Minnie made his heart flutter. Now, months later, the K-pop group arrived for the latest episode of the musical show, currently hosted by Bo Gum, where the actor admitted he's still thinking about that moment.

The five-member K-pop group consisting of Miyeon, Minnie, Soyeon, Yuqi, and Shuhua recently graced the stage of The Seasons: Cantabile. The KBS2 musical TV show kicked off its seventh season back in March with Bo Gum as the first actor host and has since welcomed an impressive lineup of A-listers. (G)I-DLE appeared to promote their latest comeback and spoke about their music, projects, tours, and more. While discussing, Bo Gum suddenly recalled a moment when he headlined a special performance at Music Bank Mexico alongside Minnie and left the studio and fans shocked by confessing, 'I fell in love.'
According to Koreaboo, one Korean media article teasing the episode wrote, 'Park Bo Gum, reminiscing about his stage performance with Minnie two years ago, stirred up the studio by confessing, 'I fell in love with Minnie that day.'' However, it was later revealed that he said he fell for her voice. The Good Boy actor, who is also a musician, performed the original soundtrack Remember Me with Minnie and Hanni (from New Jeans), back in 2023.
As expected, his confession made waves online, and fans couldn't hold their excitement while sharing their views. One person commented, 'So are we just not gonna talk about the fact that Park Bo Gum just said he's in love with Minnie and he fell in love with her two years ago, that too at first sight? And he said this in front of Minnie, i-dle, and FANS—this guy is crazyyy!!!' A second chimed in, 'GUYS, he said he fell in love with her voice two years ago—maybe the first article made a mistake,' clearing up the confusion. But for many, the duo would make the perfect couple, given their visual appeal, standing in the industry, and shared love for music.

Many noted how Bo Gum kept admiring Minnie's visuals throughout the show, with the duo stealing some glances. 'Trust me, after seeing this, I directly went back to check Minnie and Park Bogum's performance. Why isn't this post getting hype? Like, he actually confessed to falling at first sight,' one person wrote. Another said, 'Park Bogum saying he fell for Minnie at first sight during this performance—I don't blame him, she looked otherworldly.'
Park Bo Gum has largely kept his personal life out of the spotlight in his over 15-year-long career in the industry. However, being the K-industry A-lister he is, he has been linked to a few celebrities from time to time, including Love in the Moonlight co-star Kim Yoo Jung. The duo were even spotted in the Philippines back in 2020, and the rumours floated around for months, but the relationship never got a confirmation. Apart from that, Park was also linked with actor Jang Na Ra, and the buzz raged to the point where the media started speculating about a potential marriage. At the time, Jang Na Ra directly addressed the rumour and said, 'I haven't even met him on the street while walking past. I don't know where Cheongdam Wedding Street is, and I spend most of my time at home or in my neighbourhood.' Park, in his early days, was said to be controversially dating Song Hye Kyo, and the rumour gained traction after Song's marriage with Song Joong Ki fell apart. For now, the actor is not dating anyone publicly.

Last Updated: The septet, comprising RM, Jin, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin, V and Jungkook, has broken barriers no one thought was possible for a K-pop group. BTS isn't just another K-pop band– they are a global phenomenon. From starting as underdogs over a decade ago to now being one of the most renowned musicians in the world, the seven members have come a long way. The septet, comprising RM, Jin, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin, V and Jungkook, has broken barriers no one thought was possible for a K-pop group. Before BTS reunites following a hiatus of nearly three years due to their mandatory military service, check out these 10 unforgettable moments that prove their global dominance and showcase their inspiring journey in the industry. Their First Major Win At MAMA 2016 No one could have imagined that BTS would win an award at the Mnet Asian Music Awards, let alone the title of Artist of the Year. That moment back in 2016 was a huge win for the septet. They came from a small company, worked their way to the top and finally got recognition for their hard work. First Billboard Win In 2017, BTS became the first K-pop group to win a Billboard Music Awards. They bagged the Top Social Artist honour, all thanks to their massive fandom called the ARMYs and their strong online presence. This moment proved that BTS was here to stay. Love Yourself: Tear Tops Billboard Chart BTS' sixth studio album, Love Yourself: Tear, made history as the first Korean-language album to reach #1 on the Billboard 200 chart in 2018. It was not just a win for the septet but for Korean music on the global stage. It proved that language is not a barrier if the music has merit. BTS At The United Nations The septet partnered with UNICEF to launch the 'Love Myself" campaign in 2018. Through it, BTS wanted to spread the message of self-love and hope. RM, the group's leader, even spoke at the United Nations, encouraging young people to believe and accept themselves. Dynamite Scores Another Major Win On Billboard Chart Dynamite is BTS' first-ever full English song. Released during the COVID-19 pandemic, it became a beacon of hope and lifted spirits during those uncertain times. The single was loved so much that the group scored their first #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. First Grammy Nomination Dynamite became such a hit across the world that BTS received a nomination in the 'Best Pop Duo/Group Performance" category at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. With this, they became the first Korean pop act to be nominated for one. This was a dream come true not just for the group but also for their fans. BTS' Butter Broke Records In 2021, when BTS released their second English-language single, Butter, it once again took over the world. The song did not just debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart but stayed at the same position for 10 weeks straight. Butter even broke some major records on YouTube. BTS' Appointment As Special Presidential Envoys The South Korean government appointed BTS as a special envoy for public diplomacy in 2021. They spoke at the UN General Assembly to represent the youth and promote sustainability and inclusivity. This unique blend of entertainment and politics showcased their impact as cultural ambassadors. Chapter 2 Of BTS In 2022, BTS released Proof, a nod to their journey in the industry so far. During FESTA '22, the septet announced that they would embark on their solo careers while still remaining a group. This transition marked a significant change in BTS but, at the same time, showcased their unity. BTS' Speech At The White House In June 2022, BTS was invited to the White House to speak about anti-Asian hate and racial discrimination. They talked about the importance of inclusion and respect. It was a powerful moment, where BTS showcased how to use their platform for the greater good. As for their reunion, BTS' Jin and J-Hope are already out of their military service, RM and V will be discharged on June 10, followed by Jimin and Jungkook on June 11.
