BLACKPINK's Jennie showcased her close friendship with Rosé, sharing a heartfelt moment between the two amid an ongoing debate over her solo stage outfit. Following the release of her first full-length solo album, Ruby, and a high-profile concert in Los Angeles, Jennie found herself at the center of an online discussion regarding her performance attire.

On February 10, Jennie took to social media to express her gratitude toward Rosé, posting a photo of herself holding a bouquet of roses. "A rose from Rosé. She has such a warm heart," Jennie captioned the image, which was presented in the nostalgic tones of a Polaroid snapshot.

The post also included a tag for Rosé's Instagram account, accompanied by the message: "You are the sweetest. Thank you for always being there for me. Love you." The affectionate exchange between the two BLACKPINK members immediately drew attention from fans, highlighting their strong bond amidst Jennie's recent controversies.

Just a day before, Jennie successfully wrapped up her Ruby album launch concert in Los Angeles. The event saw her perform several new tracks, including Like JENNIE, and connect with global fans. However, following the concert, social media erupted with divided opinions over Jennie's stage outfit-a high-leg cut bodysuit, which some fans deemed too revealing.

Korean netizens, in particular, expressed mixed reactions. Some criticized the attire as "excessive" compared to her previous performances, while others defended it as simply a bold artistic choice in line with her solo concept. "It suits the performance style," one supporter commented, while another argued, "It's too much exposure compared to her past outfits."

Despite the controversy, Jennie has not directly responded to the backlash. Instead, she has been engaging with fans through social media, sharing behind-the-scenes moments from her concert and teasing more promotional activities for Ruby.

In addition to her online presence, Jennie is also set to meet fans in person at the Ruby pop-up store event, which will be held at the Hyundai Card Music Library in Seoul's Yongsan district. The interactive space aims to celebrate her latest album with exclusive merchandise and immersive displays.

As discussions surrounding her performance attire continue, fans remain eager to see how Jennie will navigate her solo journey in the coming months.
