"When I feel down and stuffy, I'd go up the mountains and share a Kancho with the pigeons. I also observe ants, flies, and even a queen ant so I ran away.
Suddenly, it rained and went down, and now I got soaked wet."
Friend: "Did you go with that kid by any chance?"
Sofia: "My father? Yes, I went with my father."
Under the post, majority of netizens went on board with how the two aren't involved romantically at all and are just good friends with each other. But they also couldn't help but express how cute Anton and Sofia looked together in their interactions!
Read their comments below:
- "Why does Vernon's sister's feed look so innocent compared to most Korean lovestagrams? Also, I don't think they're dating just basing off of this."
- "If you think about the fact that this was taken in America, they were probably just friends."
- "You need way more than that to claim they were dating. Is that all you have? They seem super close because of how they attended the same school."
- "Why do they still look so wholesomely cute to me?"
- "You need additional evidence to say they're dating, especially when both of them are foreigners."
- "Seeing Sofia's friend refer Anton as 'that kid' makes me think that there must've been something between them.'
- "I think his sister had a boyfriend at that time. She must've been just friends with Anton."
