Jennie Kim is a South Korean rapper, singer and model who was born in Seoul in 1996. She was educated in New Zealand and upon her return to South Korea joined the music industry giant YG Entertainment as a trainee and began preparing herself for a career in music. In 2016, she made her public debut as a member of Blackpink, an all-girl K-pop group. The group's first single 'Whistle' was lifted off the EP 'Square One' and went to number one in the Korean charts. The follow up single 'Boombayah' was a surprise number one on Billboard's World Digital Charts and was to become the first of four Billboard chart-toppers for the band.
Kim's debut single as a solo artist was announced during Blackpink's 2018 'In Your Area' tour ahead of its official release. When the single and the accompanying video went public it became the most-viewed video released by a female K-pop artist, confirming Kim's popularity amongst K-pop fans.
Like many female K-pop artists, Kim has numerous endorsement deals with large brands wanting to cash in on lucrative Asian markets. Her most notable commercial link has been to become the official ambassador for Chanel in South Korea.
