Along with the fans, BLACKPINK’s Jennie was also in attendance.
While phones are common at concerts, Jennie has been known to “call out” BLINKs she believes are not enjoying the show but spending all the time recording.

It meant that when Jennie was spotted like the rest of the crowd, just enjoying the show without using her phone, netizens knew that the idol was someone who followed her own advice and wasn’t hypocritical.
