BLACKPINK member Jennie is back and looking stunning!

On October 5, she shared exciting concept photos for her upcoming single "Mantra," which will be released on October 11, through her official social media accounts.

The three photos reveal Jennie's unique charm as she explores different concepts and styles. Each image includes catchy phrases like “This that pretty girl mantra,” “Check you like commas,” and “She’s that stunna,” highlighting her playful personality.

Jennie has made history in the music world as well. She was the first Korean female solo artist to receive platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for her collaboration “One Of The Girls” with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp, released last year.

Also, in April, she became the first K-pop female artist to reach over 1 billion views on her music video for "SOLO."

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
