Jennie (BLACKPINK) admitted to "releasing smoke", apologized for behaving rudely to employees

The incident of Jennie "puffing" cigarette smoke in the face of employees in a closed room is receiving the attention of the public. Later, through ODDATELIER, Jennie admitted to her behavior.

The case of Jennie (BLACKPINK) smoking is the focus of social networks today. Specifically, while putting on makeup to prepare for the Jacquemus show in Italy, the female idol put a suspicious object to her mouth, then released smoke. This moment was immediately shared on social media and entered the Top 1 social media entertainment table Weibo.

Jennie also received a storm of criticism when many people thought that the act of smoking e-cigarettes in a closed room and releasing smoke at the makeup artist was a disrespectful and unacceptable act of a female idol.

The online community also pointed out that Jennie's crew detected this error and quickly deleted the sensitive moment, causing the vlog duration to be about 15 seconds short of the original video. The female idol was criticized for "abuse of power", and was denounced by fans to the Korean embassy to request an investigation.

On the afternoon of July 9 (Vietnam time), Jennie gave an official response to the allegation of e-smoking. The BLACKPINK female rapper said that she deeply regretted this action, and at the same time apologized to the affected employees.

Original text of ODDATELIER's notice:

"Hello.

This is OA Entertainment.

We sincerely apologize to everyone who was upset by Jennie's actions in the content released on July 2nd.

Jennie admitted and deeply regretted her mistake of smoking e-cigarettes in the house and causing inconvenience to employees. Jennie personally apologized to all employees who may have been affected.

We apologize to the fans who were disappointed by this incident. We hope to prevent this from happening again in the future.

Thank you."

After Jennie made a statement admitting smoking and admitting guilt about herself, many fans left comments cheering for the idol. However, the controversy has not cooled down yet.

Before officially admitting her wrongdoing, on the morning of July 9, Jennie's company announced that it was verifying the allegations against the artist. Jennie is currently in the US. This statement made the public even more angry, netizens constantly commented negatively about Jennie. Even the female idol was sent a complaint requesting an investigation into the smoking allegations to the embassy. In South Korea, the issue of idols smoking in closed rooms has been condemned extremely violently.

This is not the first time Jennie has been involved in this controversy, in 2022, Jennie was also suspected of smoking when watching a performance at the largest music festival on the planet Coachella. Accordingly, at this time, a post on the X platform (Twitter) posted an article about Jennie partying at Coachella and allegedly smoking. In the moment recorded, Jennie and The Weeknd were dancing and smoke appeared. This caused netizens to argue that Jennie smoked.

However, this noise was quickly "crushed" by the majority of fans of the BLACKPINK member who thought that the above moment was unclear and there was no evidence to confirm this sensitive suspicion.

From Jennie's case, previously, on the Pann online community, many viewers mentioned V (BTS) with sarcastic comments such as: "Too suitable for V BTS", "It is indeed very beautiful with V"...

The reason V was drawn into Jennie's noise was because the two had a suspicious period of dating last year. Besides, V once caused controversy when the image of him smoking behind the scenes at the 2022 Grammy Awards went viral. However, according to many opinions, the nature of Jennie and V's case is completely different. V and his manager are said to be smoking in the designated area, not affecting others. And Jennie smoked an e-cigarette in the room, right in front of her staff.
