Where did the rumor come from?

Celebrity gossip account Deuxmoi received a tip about the Red singer reportedly having lunch with a Korean actor in a restaurant in New York last week. The anonymous tipper actually thought at first that it was Jin Goo — but they later corrected it to be Gong Yoo.

But is Gong Yoo really in New York?

We’re not actually sure, since Gong Yoo doesn’t really have any social media pages. He was last spotted with The Silent Sea co-actors Bae Doona and Jung Woo-sung four days ago, but that’s still plenty of time to have traveled to and from the US and South Korea.

So what was the meeting for?

Fans speculate that this was for another music video of Taylor Swift. Considering the length of Red (Taylor’s Version) — over 2 hours’ worth of a whopping 30 songs — there’s definitely a lot of material she could turn into another music video.

Which one?

It could be anything from Red (Taylor’s Version). A lot of Swifties are hoping it would be for “Message in a Bottle” or “Getaway Car.” Or some fans speculate that it would be for another album or re-recording she’s working on (we wouldn’t be surprised; she released folklore and evermore within months of each other, after all).

Fans are excited

It’s only a rumor, but fans of both Taylor Swift and Gong Yoo are taking their excitement through the roof.

Umm, are we getting Gong Yoo in a Taylor Swift music video??? Because I, for one, would pay good money to see that 😌 https://t.co/zWzxxGoMb3

The Scarf ™ comeback

Swifties couldn’t help but notice that Gong Yoo is well-known for a project that involved a red scarf. Sounds familiar? Yup, Gong Yoo’s love interest in Goblin wore a red scarf around a la “All Too Well.” He even got to wear it himself a few times.
