YG Entertainment promises to support Blackpink’s group activities with all available resources, and at the same time cheer for the members’ individual activities with a warm heart.”
Jennie is the first member of Blackpink to announce personal activities. Accordingly, the 9X generation star established his own company and actively managed his personal artistic activities. Her decision received both support and concern from fans.
Recently, when participating in the show The Seasons – Lee Hyori’s Red Carpet, Jennie shared about her bold decision.
She said, “I still continue to do group activities, but I also want to do my individual activities more freely, so I started my own company. I have a team of people by my side.” I have been in my own company for a long time. I want to continue to freely carry out activities and promote.”

In addition, Jennie affirmed that setting up her own company does not mean that she is in conflict with entertainment group YG Entertainment. The beautiful female singer said that she and the other 3 members of Blackpink all agreed to extend the group contract with YG Entertainment and this is the best proof that they have no conflict with the management company.
Jennie added that she learned many things at YG Entertainment, but during that process, she always thought about what she could do if she stood on her own two feet.
“I want to challenge myself, bravely face all difficulties to fulfill my plans. Currently, I focus on taking good care of myself,” the young singer added.
Specifically, Jennie plans to release a personal album in 2024 and actively participate in entertainment programs. “Standing on stage and performing is my greatest happiness,” Jennie added.
