Questions were raised about the reason for the two members departing at a different time, including a possible schedule the two are attending alone. However, it was quickly linked to Winter due to the group’s own schedule.

Around the same time, aespa were spotted at the airport as well, heading to Chicago for their appearance at 2026 Lollapalooza Chicago.

Jungkook’s early departure has since been linked to Winter, with it claimed that the idol wanted to avoid speculation.

People saying that jungkook and jhope went first because they had a schedule. but they just arrived in NY 11pm what do they have to do this time? And besides, the rest of BTS arrives tomorrow morning around 11 am. JUNGKOOK AND WINTER agreed not to meet at the airport! #winkook

On the other hand, many pushed back, saying that Jungkook and Winter’s timing would have been connected regardless.

Let’s be real, if Jungkook had flown with the other members today, y’all would’ve been like, “He delayed his flight so he could fly on the same day as his girlfriend.” The narrative changes, but the conspiracy stays the same.
