Jennie's New Music Video Blocked Due to 'Copyright Violation' in a Bizarre Incident
On October 11, Jennie released her single album Mantra, but shortly after, she experienced several disruptions, including her social media accounts being temporarily deactivated and her music video being blocked.
On October 12, Jennie shared through her Instagram story, "It's a sad situation where Instagram won't open on my phone," adding, "I have so much I want to post, but please wait a little longer." She also pleaded with the platform's administrators, saying, "Please fix this."
While her Instagram account was restored, her official X (formerly Twitter) account was suspended on October 15. To make matters worse, Jennie's Mantra music video was blocked due to "copyright reasons," preventing fans from watching the video. Fans were outraged, speculating that malicious anti-fans might be behind these incidents.
Fortunately, both her accounts and the music video have since been restored, though no official explanation has been provided for why these disruptions occurred.
Fans expressed their frustration, with comments like, "This must mean Jennie is about to get even more successful," "Is this some organized attack?" "Does YouTube even check these things?" and "Just leave Jennie alone."
Despite the setbacks, Jennie's new single Mantra has been dominating both domestic and international music charts, gaining widespread popularity. The song delivers a message of self-love, encouraging women everywhere to embrace their true selves, radiate confidence, and support each other. Mantra is a powerful, energetic anthem that celebrates individuality and empowerment.
Jennie, who debuted with BLACKPINK in 2016, has achieved global fame with hits like "Whistle," "As If It's Your Last," "DDU-DU DDU-DU," "How You Like That," and "Lovesick Girls." She continues to flourish through her personal label, OA Entertainment (Odd Atelier), which was established last year, allowing her to pursue solo projects.
Recently, Jennie was involved in a controversy over indoor smoking, but the matter was settled after she issued an apology.
