[instiz] JENNIE'S OUTFITS AT THE MMA ALL HAD HANGUL ON THEM

And her veil look was the coolest

"PART 1. Hangul

The greatest inspiration for this stage costume

stems from Jennie's long-cherished affection for Korea and Hangul.

As <Seoul City> softly resonates,

Jennie appears on stage.

Seoul is not merely a backdrop, but quietly summoned as the starting point that shaped today's Jennie.

A veil approximately 15 meters long, inscribed with verses from Cheonggyu Yeong'eon, the first songbook recorded in Hangul, is draped across the dark stage.

This veil is not to conceal her face, but to signify the moment of confronting her origins and identity.

As the veil lifts, the revealed Hangul is the language that first called her name, the clearest trace showing where she came from.

On the second stage, Hangul is no longer merely a language,

but exists as memory and the layers of time that have shaped her voice. “I am rewriting my name with these letters.”

"This language never confined me;

instead, it carried me farther."

Hangul becomes the most personal strength she ultimately clings to in her journey into the world.

The final song begins with a jacket adorned with gold foil, featuring over 2,000 repetitions of the name ‘Jennie’ engraved over approximately 200 hours.

This garment is not decoration, but a record of time spent proving herself by repeatedly calling her own name.

Having traversed all layers of the past,

Jennie returns to her own name,

defining herself not through others' gazes but through her own language,

thus completing the image of a modern woman."
