BLACKPINK’s Jennie Criticised For Behaviour Towards Staff During 'DEADLINE' Concert
BLACKPINK's grand return with the 'Deadline' world tour stirred up more than just cheers, as Jennie’s moment with staff at the Goyang concert has divided the internet.
BLACKPINK’s long-awaited reunion has finally kicked off with a bang, but not without controversy. The K-pop supergroup launched their much-hyped Deadline World Tour on July 5 and 6 at South Korea’s Goyang Stadium, sending fans into a frenzy. While the electrifying performances by Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé wowed audiences, a brief incident involving Jennie has since taken centre stage online.
In a widely circulated fan video, Jennie appeared to face a wardrobe hiccup during the performance of ‘Forever Young’. Struggling with her shoe mid-performance, she was seen calling a staff member to assist. However, it wasn’t the mishap that caught attention; it was her allegedly sharp attitude while instructing the crew.
The footage, now viral across X (formerly Twitter) and other platforms, shows Jennie animatedly speaking to the staff as they help tie her laces. While some fans brushed it off as a moment of high energy and urgency during a live show, others weren’t so forgiving.
Jennie's Viral Clip Fuels Online Firestorm
The backlash spiralled into a full-blown online debate. Some defended the singer, stating the clip lacked context and was likely misinterpreted due to performance pressure.
Criticism swiftly followed. A user lashed out, “Who the hell does this b*tch think she is?” while another accused her of “treating staff like servants.” One comment read, “Even if it’s a concert, it doesn’t mean she can treat the staff as she wants.”

According to OP, JENNIE had a small shoe issue during “Forever Young.” It didn’t seem like part of the planned performance, but she handled it so naturally, and the BLACKPINK members came over to check on her and helped her handle it together. 🥹🫶 pic.twitter.com/tuc02iiZ4y
