Summary

In her first-ever podcast appearance, BLACKPINK superstar Jennie tells Dua about what it’s been like bringing her culture to the world via her group’s chart-topping K-pop music, the medium of dance, a recent foray into acting on HBO's The Idol, and so much more.

Join Jennie as she rewinds time and takes listeners on a journey from her time split between South Korea and New Zealand as a child to what it was like coming up in the K-pop trainee system. You’ll hear the BLACKPINK sensation look back on her years on the road, fighting burnout, reconnecting with her culture, and so much more.
