I liked Jennie and Kai a lot, they have so much in common, both are ninis, both love bears, both are ambassadors of high brands, cute in real life and sexy/cool on stage and much more
It's sad that they decided to end their relationship because of dispatch, I hope they're ok 💔— Nami 🌹 (@jinsoftcheeks) January 25, 2019

Many of the Korean netizens turned the tables on malicious commenters who have cursed and criticized Jennie and Kai for their relationship.
Others blamed the idols’ respective agencies for forcing them to split. Many Korean netizens criticized Yang Hyun Suk, claiming that he probably told Kai and Jennie to break up so that BLACKPINK won’t see any “damages”.

this is literally me when I saw that jennie and kai decided to break up for their fans and teammates but I think they still have feelings for each other (and probably their company forced them to do it too)pic.twitter.com/EzB0SZlZqs

Dispatch was also caught in the fire as netizens blamed them for exposing their relationship in the first place. They suggest Kai and Jennie would have survived better if they were left alone to date in peace, instead of the scrutiny of the general public.
DISPATCH SHOULD BE THE ONE TO BLAME ON THIS… NOT JENNIE AND KAI, NOT YG OR SM, NOT THE FANDOMS BUT FUCKING DISPATCH! PEOPLE WORKING THERE DONT KNOW THE WORD PRIVACY! HOPE YOU ROT IN HELL DISPATCH!!!!!!!#JENKAI

디스패치가 아니었다면 제니 카이는 알아서 잘 사겼을 것 같음. 왜 잘 만나고 다니는 커플을 들쑤시냐. 디패 누가 고소 안하나?

“If it weren’t for Dispatch, Jennie and Kai would have dated just fine. Why does Dispatch bother people who are dating well. Why haven’t they been sued yet?” — @chaos_mose
Contrary to many opinions, there is a large group of people who believe that Jennie and Kai still live on! They claim that the agencies and media only announced that they’ve broken up so that the couple can date away from the public eye.

Whether you believe that they’ve truly broken up or not, the largest opinion seems to be one of positive support as fans pledge to continue supporting them no matter what as long as they’re happy!

I would definitely like to thank Kai for bringing Jennie’s smile and loving her. Don’t blame it on Kai they both decided it together because of the love they have for their fans and their members. The most selfless couple!pic.twitter.com/XFngcDnAQb
