There is a new dating rumor that is circulating online that is garnering attention because it is centering around rookie idol group members.

On October 12, an anonymous Twitter user claimed that Kep1er member Dayeon and Ciipher member Won are dating. The Twitter user included various photos allegedly proving that the two rookie idols are dating. The photos showed that the two idols were in the same location at the same time, wearing the same shirt, and having matching couple items such as phone cases. Also, many claim that Dayeon's phone background photo is the exact same photo taken by the Ciipher member.

Ciipher is a boy group that debuted on March 15, 2021, and Kep1er is also a rookie girl group that made their official debut on January 3, 2022. Because of this, many netizens are shocked that these rookie idols made it so obvious that they are dating when they should be focusing on their careers.

Netizens commented, "Isn't she the one with the character of being vicious and ambitious? She's like that in my memory...why is she making it so obvious that she's dating when she's only a rookie?" "They shouldn't make it so obvious that they're dating...why do they make it so obvious that they are dating?" "There are so many idols so I thought they need to be in the same company or have a place where they came in contact to become friends but I guess the entertainment industry is smaller than I thought," "How can she do this right before her comeback," "It's actually very unexpected that it's Kim Dayeon who was caught dating not some other member," "How can rookies be like that?" and "They're deceiving their fans."
