BLACKPINK’s Jennie, a solo artist, will host her first photo exhibition.
From the 16th to the 29th, Jennie will hold her inaugural photo exhibition, ‘JENNIE PHOTO EXHIBITION ‘J2NNI5′,’ at Youthquake in Jongno-gu, Seoul for approximately two weeks. A photo book, limited to 3,000 copies worldwide, will be released alongside the exhibition.
Jennie’s inaugural photo exhibition presents her most genuine moments captured candidly in unplanned settings. It will showcase unreleased photos of Jennie at 25 years old, taken by renowned photographers Hong Jang-hyun, Shin Sun-hye, and Mok Jung-wook.
Notably, the exhibition kicks off on January 16, Jennie’s birthday, adding special meaning, as she personally participated in various project aspects, from the publication of the photo book to exhibition planning and hosting. This project, encompassing the exhibition, photo book, and merchandise, reflects Jennie’s personal perspective and emotions, offering a platform to naturally share her journey and feelings.
This exhibition distinguishes itself with diverse spatial presentations that create a cohesive flow, rather than being a typical photo display. As visitors move through different spaces on each floor, they will encounter the most candid moments of 25-year-old Jennie, unbound by intention or concept. Jennie herself will deliver an interview as the finale, detailing the behind-the-scenes of the photo exhibition and book, to enhance the exhibition’s immersion.
The photo book, also limited to 3,000 copies worldwide, will be published alongside the exhibition. It captures Jennie’s 25th year through the lenses of famous local photographers, combining over 50 themes and including 692 pages of works beyond those exhibited, making it a highly collectible item. Purchases are limited to one copy per person, and first edition buyers will receive a special certificate and bookmark.
Additionally, a total of 15 types of exhibition merchandise will be available to commemorate the event. These include a photo book, puzzles, candles, a 2026 calendar and planner, hoodies, and other lifestyle items. Each photo book purchase includes a random bookmark.
A collaborative pop-up with Daikanyama Tsutaya, a lifestyle bookstore in Tokyo, will concurrently showcase parts of the exhibition and merchandise. This collaboration, aligned with BLACKPINK’s Tokyo concert schedule, is garnering significant attention beyond Korea, demonstrating global influence.
Pre-sale tickets for ‘JENNIE PHOTO EXHIBITION ‘J2NNI5′,’ which opened on the 9th, sold out in 40 minutes, while all tickets at Daikanyama Tsutaya were booked within 15 minutes. Keywords related to Jennie’s photo exhibition ranked first in the exhibition, classic, and miscellaneous categories on Melon Ticket and trended high on X (formerly Twitter). This demonstrated significant buzz. All proceeds from ticket sales for the exhibition will be donated.
