JENNIE Rewrites History as First K-POP Female Soloist with Her Debut Solo Album “Ruby”

Global artist JENNIE is establishing a new milestone in K-POP female solo history through her debut solo album “Ruby.” With initial sales of 661,130 copies for the new release, she set the highest first-week sales figure among K-POP female soloists this year. Global charts also reflect JENNIE’s success, as she reached third place on the UK Official Album Chart, achieving the best result ever for a K-POP female soloist. Even more notable is her performance on the U.S. Billboard HOT 100 chart. On the March 22 issue of the chart, she had three tracks listed simultaneously: the title track “like JENNIE,” along with “Handlebars” featuring Dua Lipa and “ExtraL” featuring Doechii. This made her the first K-POP female soloist to have three songs appear on the Billboard HOT 100 chart at once. To date, JENNIE has released music videos for seven of the 15 tracks included in “Ruby,” continuing her aggressive promotional efforts. The most recent track released is “Seoul City,” for which she participated in both writing and composing. “Seoul City” is a love song about Seoul, expressing the city’s magical charm and highlighting why it is the most precious place among all. The music video features JENNIE moving to the rhythm of the music against the backdrop of various locations in Seoul, set under dreamy lighting, showcasing her full enjoyment of the city. JENNIE’s success with her solo album goes beyond mere musical achievement; it is redefining the potential of K-POP female soloists.
