Rise to Fame

At the age of 14, Jennie Kim was signed on by ‘YG Entertainment’ in South Korea. She did not start her singing career instantly and underwent training for six years. Not only did she work on her vocals but developed her aptitude in rapping. ‘YG Entertainment’ had been developing the band ‘Black Pink’ for some years and started teasing their debut in 2012. The final members were revealed on June 29, 2016, and band members included Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa and they finally made their debut on August 8, 2016. Their first album ‘Square One’ featured the tracks ‘Boombayah’, ‘Whistle’, ‘Playing With Fire’, ‘Stay’, and ‘As If It’s Your Last’. ‘Whistle’ became the number-one hit on the ‘Goan Digital Chart’ and the video of the song became viral on YouTube. This turned the band into an overnight sensation and they became the highest rated female K-pop band on the ‘Billboard Social 50’.

Jennie Kim and her bandmates reached a new milestone in their career after the release of their new single ‘As If It’s Your Last’ on June 22, 2017. The sound of the song was distinctly different to their previous releases and it debuted on top of the ‘Billboard's World Digital Song’ chart. There was no stopping them as they decided to make their debut in Japan on August 30, 2017, with their extended musical play ‘Blackpink’. The EP of the play debuted at number one on the ‘Oricon Albums Chart’.

Controversy

In a made-up conversation with Kim Youngcheol, she was asked which city she had lived in New Zealand. To this, she replied ‘Do you know any cities in New Zealand?'. This was taken by netizens as her being intentionally offensive to South Koreans. She chose not to react to the backlash.
