"This is the best answer bcs it's clearly giving fans more reason to be wondering and shipping them hard AND also giving bws the chance to keep that possibility open (or maybe more time to work on that)," a user said.
"I just know they aren't dating but I'll devour these contents for the butterflies. I want them to focus more on their career for now tbh. And maybe hang out with each other from time to time? Idk hahahaha I want them to be together but not now," a fan commented.

"Shippers worldwide are going insane. Regardless of whether it's true or they're just being playful (most likely), I'm glad they're so comfortable with eo and I hope they can work together again someday. Their chemistry is worthy of more projects," a user shared.
"I think literally everyone in Korea, scratch dat, the entire universe, is probably losing their minds w/ excitement over this potential relationship. If it's real, they totally deserve all the love &happiness in existence! My heart is practically exploding with happiness 4 them," a fan shared.
