1. Did Wonyoung and Raul meet at the Red and White Song Battle?

 

The biggest opportunity for the two to simultaneously gain attention was the 73rd NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen, which was broadcast in December 2022. That year, IVE made their first appearance and Snow Man their second, and they participated in the special "Disney Special Medley" with several other artists.

 

During the broadcast, IVE and Snow Man were shown on the same stage, performing in almost the same line. In particular, the moment when Wonyoung and Raul were shown in the same frame spread rapidly on social media immediately after the broadcast, and became a memorable moment for many viewers.

 

There was no conversation between the two, nor was there any special staging. However, just that moment of them standing side by side garnered a stream of reactions such as "The image is too powerful" and "It looks like two models standing side by side," and from there, the search term "Wonyoung Raul" quickly became popular.

 

 

 

 

2. What is the truth behind the Wonyoung Raul dating rumors?

 

In conclusion, there is absolutely no reliable information that suggests a romantic relationship between Wonyoung and Raul. There is currently no reliable evidence, such as reports, sightings, photos, or official comments.

 

The reason why rumors of a romance have surfaced despite this is due to a phenomenon that is common in the idol world: even if they have only appeared together once, if they have excellent visual chemistry and are close in age, fans' imaginations will run wild.

 

In other words, this rumor was not born out of an actual relationship, but rather an image-driven topic created by the "high level of perfection they looked like the moment they were standing side by side."

 

 

 

 

3. Why did their collaboration go viral on social media?

 

After the broadcast of the Red and White Song Battle, screenshots and videos of the two of them in the same frame were repeatedly posted, mainly on X (formerly Twitter). What is noteworthy is that most of the posts did not question their romance, but simply praised their appearance and atmosphere.

 

Many people commented, "The screen suddenly became vibrant," "It was like watching a fashion show," and "I want to see these two on the cover of a magazine together," and the conversation naturally expanded to include fashion and their affinity with global brands.

 

Both of them are already highly regarded as models and brand ambassadors, so the overlapping images were a major factor in accelerating the spread of their image on social media.

 

 

 

 

4. Wonyoung and Raul have otherworldly styles

The reason why the two are such a hot topic is not only based on sensory impressions, but also on objective figures. Below is a table comparing the basic styles of Wonyoung and Raul.

 

name	year of birth	height	Features
Wonyoung	2004	Approximately 173cm	Incredible leg proportions and a visual representative of K-Pop
Raul	2003	Approximately 190cm	One of Japan's tallest male idols, with a model-like figure

 

Wonyoung is a symbol of "unrealistic style," and Raul boasts an unparalleled physique among Japanese male idols. When these two stand side by side, it's no wonder that their appearances naturally conjure up images of runways and fashion visuals.

 

As a result, fans are more interested in the visual aspect of the couple, hoping to see them side by side again, rather than the romance itself.

 

 

 

 

5. People are hoping for Wonyoung and Raul to work together again

 

Even now, after all this time, the reason their names are still mentioned together is because hopes remain that they will perform together again. It is entirely possible that they will appear together again on music shows, award ceremonies, and even international fashion events.

 

If they were to appear together again, it would almost certainly become a trending topic again. Many fans are simply hoping to see them together again, rather than whether they are in a relationship or not.

 

 

 

 

6. Summary

The rumors of Wonyoung and Raul's relationship are not based on fact, but are a topic born from the overwhelming image they created after working together once. The reason they continue to be searched for is not because of the scandal, but because of their visuals, style, and presence as global icons.

 

If they were to appear together again in the future, the keyword "Wonyoung Raul" would once again attract a lot of attention.
