rundown
Throughout her career, Jisoo has kept nearly every detail of her love life private. Her entertainment agency confirmed that she and Ahn Bo-hyun were dating in August 2023. The couple was together for about two months but separated due to scheduling conflicts.
Blackpink’s Jisoo has long chosen to keep her private life separate from her career, and reveals little about her love life, even though the K-pop girl group has become one of the most famous bands in the world. However, in an interview with ELLE Korea in November 2025, she spoke frankly about self-love.
Reflecting on how she has found her feet on the ground, Jisoo said in Korean (translated into English here), “I have always loved myself and lived my life valuing myself.I hope I can continue to do so in the future.When times are tough, I always have my own self, so I hope I can overcome even the slightest gust of wind.”(Translated into English here)
She also talked about her thoughts on love and explained why she is drawn to writing about love in music. “Most human emotions are tied to love, so I think it’s natural to talk about all kinds of love,” she said. “Perfect love doesn’t exist. Isn’t the final stage of love just understanding each other and getting as close to perfection as possible?”
At the beginning of 2025, Jisoo revealed the qualities she looks for in a partner in Billboard’s Valentine’s Day video. “It’s nice to have someone with similar food tastes,” she said. “And if they treat me well, I’m really happy. But I think having the same sense of humor is most important. If that doesn’t work, things can feel a little boring.”
The pop star’s privacy leaves room for occasional speculation about her love life, including long-standing rumors, but she has only confirmed one relationship on record. In 2023, Jisoo and Korean actor Ahn Bo-hyun became the first BLACKPINK couple to publicly admit their relationship.
Below is Jisoo’s complete dating history.
Ahn Bo-hyun: 2023
On August 2, 2023, YG Entertainment made a direct announcement confirming that she and actor Ahn Bo-hyun are in the early stages of dating. YG said, “Jisoo and Ahn Bo-hyun are getting along well. We hope you will watch over them warmly.”
Ahn’s agency, FN Entertainment, also sent a similar message to CNN, saying, “The two of them are slowly getting to know each other with good feelings. We hope you will watch over them with warm eyes.”
This confirmation came shortly after South Korean media outlet Dispatch published photos of Ahn visiting Jisoo’s home during a short break from Blackpink’s Born Pink world tour. The Dispatch reported that Ahn adjusted her schedule to accommodate her short stay in South Korea, and the two often spent time together in private. According to the newspaper, when asked about the nature of their relationship, Jisoo answered in Korean, “It’s still in the early stages, so I’m cautious,” and added, “I have a good feeling.”
A source told Dispatch that the two shared “many common interests” across “acting, singing and even fashion.”
The couple broke up less than three months after their relationship became public. On October 24th, YG Entertainment confirmed their breakup to JTBC Entertainment News through Soompi, stating that it was true that their relationship had ended, saying, “Due to their busy schedules, Jisoo and Ahn Bo-hyun’s relationship naturally became estranged, and they recently broke up.”
