BLACKPINK’s Jennie Experiences Website Crash from Surging Traffic; Fandom Name Unveiled in Voice Note

Jennie is on the rise! After launching her official website, the global superstar revealed her solo fandom name through an exciting voice note, further teasing her fans with upcoming schedules.

On September 18th, BLACKPINK member and ODD ATELIER founder Jennie sent shockwaves through the internet by initiating a countdown—hinting at major announcements for her music enthusiasts and supporters.

At 8 a.m. KST, Jennie’s personal website went live to the public, but it quickly crashed due to overwhelming traffic from BLINKs (BLACKPINK fans) and Jensetters (fans of Jennie) trying to access it.

100k accounts registered in just 90 minutes without her even sharing the link on her personal account? Her popularity is insane. We need festivals in and outside Korea, performances at award shows, fanmeetings, and perhaps one day a world tour @oddatelier @ColumbiaRecords https://t.co/VwrE4KNbIy
