ZEROBASEONE’s Sung Hanbin and aespa Karina’s Dating Rumor Over a Tangerine Is Unreasonable According to Korean Netizens

In a forum posted on a community site, a Korean netizen posted with the title "Karina and Hanbin are a strong one" hinting that the two are dating.

In the forum post, the original poster shared both ZEROBASEONE's Hanbin and aespa's Karina photos of tangerine peel along with speculation that Hanbin's "Bye Bye My Blue" was connected to Karina's Instagram username "Katarinabluu" as supposed "proof" to their dating rumor.

Sung Hanbin:

Karina:

Nevertheless, all claims were refuted by Korean netizens who found the whole rumor baseless and unreasonable as Winter and Ningning also ate tangerines yet Karina was the only one involved in the rumor.

They commented:

It's not like he was caught wearing that ring all the time, and in the first place, idols wear stage accessories prepared by their stylists, so it's so crazy to think that these two are dating. In fact, if you look at Sung Hanbin's photo from work at the Music Bank Song Festival, he returned all of his accessories and left work.
Oh... If you look at the fact that they date by eating tangerines in the winter when everyone else is doing it, it's clear that the only ones with crazy brains are the intellectually shattered bitches.
The rest were unreasonable to begin with, and even tangerine? Winter, Karina, and Ningning also posted stories. So, Sung Hanbin is dating 3 people?
They were posting about Karina and Sung Hanbin dating but since people weren't paying attention, they moved it to the board. To summarize, this is all fabrication, and Karina, Winter, and Ningning all posted tangerines but only Karina's was brought in.
Hanbin posted peeling tangerines first, and Karina ate tangerines with Ningning. In the first place, Karina didn't know that Sung Han-bin ate tangerines and the magic trick is just because it's popular these days, so a fan ordered Karina to do it. I don't even want to say anything. Common sense tells me that Karina would date Sung Han-bin, but are there only idiots in the market? I sincerely hope that everyone who is so angry at people flocking to comments like this goes to hell.
It's so ridiculous, but if I take a selfie and post it after reading this while eating tangerines and watching TV, am I also dating Sung Hanbin? My favorite color is blue...
Oh, whatever Karina does, leave Karina alone~~~
This is the funniest dating rumor post I've ever seen. What on earth is this level of aggression?
Really hahaha, why are you starting a dating rumor just because of a tangerine haha?
If they were really dating, they wouldn't have put up a challenge together lol. If you look at the Nate board, how many times does Karina change her boyfriend a day? Haha, it's really annoying. Not a day goes by that I don't miss a chat, and there's not a day that Karina doesn't lose.
