BLACKPINK’s Jennie has become the center of an online debate after a clip of her during the Melon Music Awards (MMA) began circulating.
The short clip shows Jennie watching BTS’s speech highlights on the screen before award announcements, keeping a neutral expression throughout.
Some viewers interpreted her lack of reaction as “bitter” or jealous. Comments quickly appeared online, with fans saying things like, “she’s so bitter” and “she’s so mad and doesn’t even hide it.” These reactions fueled speculation that Jennie was unhappy seeing BTS receive attention at the awards.

However, other fans rushed to defend her, pointing out that a calm or neutral expression doesn’t automatically indicate negativity.
