KOREA: Recent excitement among fans of BLACKPINK's Jennie took a turn when clarification came from her agency about the name of her fandom.

On September 19, Jennie shared a brief voice message on her agency’s official website, affectionately referring to her supporters as “Rubies.” In her message, she said, “Hello, Rubies! It’s Jennie. I’ll see you soon, and stay tuned. I cherish you. Goodbye!”

This prompted speculation that “Rubies” could be the official name of Jennie’s fanbase. However, many fans quickly pointed out that K-pop artist Kwon Eun Bi has already established “RUBI” as her fandom's name, causing concerns about potential overlap and confusion in the community.

In response to the frenzy, Jennie’s agency, OA Entertainment, stepped in to clarify the situation. They explained that the term “Rubies” was used casually in her message and was not intended as an official fandom name. Importantly, they confirmed that no formal announcement regarding her fanbase's name has been made yet.

Adding to the intrigue, the confusion was heightened by the fact that Jennie holds a trademark for “Jennie Ruby Jane,” hinting at possible future branding. As anticipation builds, Jennie is gearing up for her solo comeback, with a new single set to drop in October, following her recent recording partnership with Columbia Records.

Known as the main rapper of the global sensation BLACKPINK, Jennie Kim has made waves with her unique blend of powerful rapping, distinctive vocals, and captivating stage presence.

As she embarks on this new chapter of her career, fans worldwide are eager to see how her future projects will unfold and whether a definitive fandom name will emerge amidst the excitement!
