Global artist Jennie has become the first star of the Billboard Iconic Stage.
On Dec. 12, Billboard in the United States and Billboard Korea posted a video featuring Jennie on the official YouTube channel.
The video titled 'JENNIE’S ICONIC STAGE: Ruby' includes the production process of Jennie's first solo studio album 'Ruby' along with performances of the title track 'like JENNIE' and the follow-up song 'Handlebars'.
While introducing 'Ruby', Jennie mentioned, “I felt like I was learning how to walk for the first time while making this album, and I had to learn how to connect with my inner self. There wasn't a single part that I didn't pay attention to, from music to visuals, styling, messages, and lyrics.”
Jennie also noted, “‘like JENNIE’ is one of the most fun songs on my album. (Listening to the song) just makes you feel good and makes you want to dance every time you hear it. I thought it was a great way to introduce my album to the world,” sharing her reason for choosing 'like JENNIE' as the title track.
Jennie made her first public performance of 'Handlebars', a stage characterized by its sweet tone and lyrical atmosphere, and then flipped the mood by presenting the intense stage of 'like JENNIE', showcasing her captivating contrast.
Meanwhile, Jennie will hold a release celebration show titled 'The Ruby Experience' at Inspire Arena on the 15th.
