This is mainly due to the fact that her schedules were not in her hands, and she was barely appearing on any shows or collaborations. Now, however, Jennie has her own label for solo activities and has shocked fans with her surprising friendships in the industry!

BLACKPINK Jennie Unexpected Friendship With HYBE Artists Leaves Fans Shook

BLACKPINK member Jennie has been garnering attention from K-pop fans as she actively participates in solo activities ever since she established her own label, ODD ATELIER.

On April 27, 2024, Jennie attended SEVENTEEN's "FOLLOW' AGAIN TO SEOUL" concert, held at the World Cup Stadium in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul.

On that day, Jennie drew attention by enjoying SEVENTEEN's performance from the VIP section. Videos of the idol dancing to the music caught everyone's eye, sparking a significant online discussion and showcasing her unique presence.

However, this is not the only reason the BLACKPINK member is trending these days. Jennie recently featured on Zico's latest single, "SPOT!" which was released under the HYBE subsidiary label KOZ Entertainment. The song has garnered enthusiastic responses from Korean and international K-pop fans.

The song immediately soared to the top of the music charts both domestically and internationally immediately after its release, proving Zico and Jennie's outstanding musical chemistry. After the release of the song, the two of them further boosted anticipation for their comeback by sharing dance challenge videos. The videos gained attention on various online platforms, hinting at the song's long-lasting presence on the charts.

Jennie's recent activities, which demonstrate her close relationship with HYBE artists day after day, have been met with shock from fans. Although Jennie is known as an idol with a wide network of connections with various artists both locally and internationally, she has never publicly interacted with HYBE artists the same way she is now.

Was She Unable to Interact With HYBE Friends Due to Dating Rumors With BTS V?

It is believed she was unable to interact with HYBE artists due to her relationship with V of BTS, one of the biggest names under HYBE. In the past, the idols were speculated to have been in a relationship and had even gone through a breakup, but they have never officially confirmed anything.

While unofficial, rumors of the two dating and breaking up naturally died down as V enlisted in the military. Furthermore, with Jennie establishing her own label and parting ways with YG Entertainment, talk has shifted from the idol's personal life to her solo activities.

People believe that since her relationship with V is no longer hot news, she will be able to interact with HYBE artists more freely now!
