“Jennie’s recent photos make her look like she gained weight
Since her debut, she’s never looked this filled out, except maybe around the “Lovesick Girls” promotions.
Seems like she’s happy these days. But the stylist is dressing her in the worst way possible for her current body shape.”

“That’s considered gaining weight? I seriously don’t see it.”
“You guys are only saying that because you’ve seen some photos, lol. Try seeing her in real life, not that you ever will.”
“Of all the things to worry about in this world, you’re worried about skinny Jennie gaining a little weight?”
“What’s with everyone being obsessed with hips? Have you all been reading too many webtoons or something? She’s not even fat, you’re just weirdly fixated on her hips. It’s creepy.”
“She used to make up for her lack of hips with a slim waist, but now that she’s gained a bit… yeah, her waist shouldn’t gain weight.”
The topic remains a hot discussion point among fans and netizens as Jennie continues her world tour.
