BLACKPINK Jennie Mobbed by Fans in Airport
During her departure for Paris Fashion Week on the morning of March 2, 2024, BLACKPINK Jennie was seen struggling, evoking sympathy from fans.
Her appearance at Incheon International Airport on that day garnered massive attention from netizens. Numerous fans and journalists crowded around the idol.
Though she initially planned to do an airport photo wall, which is customary for celebrities, fans suddenly rushed at her while she was standing still.
This caused Jennie and her bodyguards to quickly make their way inside the airport, while fans followed. Jennie, surrounded by the crowd, struggled to move forward and showed great difficulty while walking.
Despite her efforts to maintain a smile towards fans and cameras, Jennie seemed uncomfortable with the people pushing her and the constant camera flashes, occasionally furrowing her brows to show her discomfort.

At one point, she received a letter from a fan and seemed to cry out in pain upon touching it, as if she were injured after receiving the letter. She is seen furrowing her brows and tighly holding on to her hand, but she still tried to maintain a bright smile on her face.
