Yet, netizens quickly came to Jennie’s defense, explaining that the idol obviously had issues with the sound but was still a professional and put on an amazing show despite the issues.
She was obviously having problems with her earpiece since it dropped mid performance, its easy to go offkey when you can hear the music especially while belting, give the poor girl a break….. https://t.co/owcEehchwm

Artist who sing live can always be out of key if their earpiece/monitor fall down
Before the tech problem, Jennie was doing amazing, sounding like the studio ver.pic.twitter.com/A9l0p6T1k1 https://t.co/vRsJCHDKfN
