Jennie resumes activity on social media

On July 30 KST, Jennie posted on social media with the caption, "Happy birthday, unnie. Princess, be happy today too," along with a photo of a staff member.

Jennie also expressed her affection by capturing the staff member's back and writing, "Her back is so hot." The person in the photo is BLACKPINK's stylist, known among fans for being Jennie's regular coordinator.

This post draws particular attention as it is Jennie's first photo since the controversy on July 8 KST, where she was criticized for 'indoor smoking' and 'abuse of power' after blowing smoke in the face of a staff member while waiting in an indoor area for makeup.
