Despite the attention, Jennie has also been involved in a lot of controversy recently when releasing the MV Mantra. Jennie's MV Mantra received a lot of compliments from fans. However, a part of the audience thinks it is a forgettable work. This is Jennie's first solo music product after ending her personal contract with YG Entertainment and establishing her own company.

Jennie's new music video is quite short according to listeners' comments. Jennie raps and sings, and the lyrics are all in English. Mantra has a fast, strong, and repetitive rhythm, with content about beautiful, party-loving girls in Los Angeles.

Netizens commented: "That song is really forgettable. It's a shame for Jennie, she has talent but this song doesn't seem to show it. Too basic", "I was looking forward to this release but I'm so disappointed. The pre-chorus is the only good part of the song", "Better than Lisa's song, but still bad".

Previously, Jennie once again caused a storm on social media with a video of her smoking an electronic cigarette in her house. On forums, many comments expressed their dissatisfaction with Jennie's smoking behavior, especially when there were other employees around her. Immediately after that, Jennie apologized through her own company Odd Atelier. However, Jennie's apology still could not calm the anger of the online community.

Next is her debut role, although it was her first foray into acting, Jennie's role in "The Idol" received a lot of criticism. Not only was she criticized for her acting, Jennie was also criticized for her acting scenes, especially her hot dance moves. Jennie's role was shared rapidly on social media along with harsh criticism. Many fans expressed disappointment with the female idol, some even said that this was a stain on her career.

Before debuting with the group Blackpink, Jennie received a lot of attention for her beauty and charisma. Until her official debut, Jennie often appeared in more outstanding and eye-catching outfits than the other members. From her hairstyle to her outfits, she was also commented to have invested more than the whole group. That is why Jennie's nickname "YG princess" was born. However, this nickname is associated with negative things and caused the female idol to receive a lot of criticism for being favored too much.

The climax was when videos of Jennie performing superficial dance moves were shared rapidly on social networks. The phrase "lazy" was associated with Jennie's name for a long time.
