HYBE Responds To LE SSERAFIM’s Kazuha And &TEAM K’s Alleged Relationship
It was reported previously that the two were friends for a year before allegedly beginning to date in the summer of 2022. The tabloid claimed that they caught by the company and broke up a year later, only to secretly get back together in the winter of 2023. HYBE admitted that the two met up in Japan in December 2023 as per the tabloid’s photos, but claimed that they met up as friends.

Fans began to get riled up due to another incident. Kazuha is famous for her mango yogurt recipe. She shared the recipe during a Vlog dated July 17, 2023.
The recipe went viral as many tried it out. A quick search on YouTube shows just how popular it is. It soon became Kazuha’s signature recipe.
The recipe is uncommon, as most would not think to add dried mangoes to yogurt and leave it overnight. Most just have fresh or frozen fruit.
What caught the eye of fans was how &TEAM’s K also shared the recipe just a few months after Kazuha did. He shared the recipe with fans during their first anniversary fanmeeting dated September 22, 2023.

Although HYBE had already denied the report claiming that the two are just friends in 2024, fans can’t help but wonder if there was something more between the two in 2023.
