After just two months of dating, BLACKPINK member Jisoo and South Korean actor Ahn Bo Hyun have broken up.
According to reports, the KPOP star's talent agency slash record label, YG Entertainment, confirmed the news: "It is true that Jisoo and Ahn Bo Hyun broke up."
They were confirmed to be dating back in August as several pictures of the couple were released by a Korean paparazzi site, Dispatch, online.
"Due to busy schedules, Jisoo and Ahn recently ended their relationship," YG Entertainment added.
Jisoo Finishes BLACKPINK Tour
Many fans wondered how Jisoo and Ahn could have possibly struggled with their "busy schedules" now that the "FLower" singer has officially wrapped up touring alongside BLACKPINK for their "Born Pink" world tour.
Meanwhile, others found the entire thing hilarious, "LMAO, they dated for like 3 days," one wrote.
"It's so fast and sudden omg... but there has to be a reason."
"Anyway Jisoo deserves better."
Others even alleged that Jisoo's relationship to Ahn was just for PR, and that it was a bit suspicious that they broke up so quickly.
"Well, that was fast."
"Getting dumped by your PR boyfriend is crazy."
The couple's agencies confirmed that they were dating two months ago: "They are getting to know each other with positive feelings. We would be thankful if you look upon them with warmth."

BLACKPINK Contract Renwal Uncertain
Some fans even claim that the entire relationship was to cover up for YG Entertainment as they tried to haggle with BLACKPINK members to renew their contracts with the company.
As of this writing, Rose is the only member confirmed to have renewed her contract, while Lisa, Jisoo, and Jennie's contracts are still up in the air.
According to Forbes Magazine, BLACKPINK's sales would drastically drop if even one member did not renew her contract.
YG Entertainment has kept mum on the situation, while fans urge the members to choose what feels right for them, encouraging them to sign with a different company altogether.
As per an analyst, there is still a high likelihood that BLACKPINK will continue as a girl group, despite some of the members not renewing their contract with the company.
However, they also emphasized the importance of having a complete lineup in BLACKPINK, which is essential to the group's success.
