While international fans love Jennie's stage presence and performances, Korean netizens have mixed reactions about her outfits.

Korean netizens commented:

"It's not my style."

"It looks too revealing..."

"For American standards, isn’t this outfit actually on the modest side?"

"I don’t really know…"

"Maybe I’m too conservative, but both the dance and outfit feel too revealing."

"Hot! I love it!"

"The issue isn’t that it’s revealing. It just makes her body proportions look strange."

"The white outfit is pretty."

"The black outfit is just revealing and not even pretty. If she dressed better, she’d be such a great artist..."

"It's way too revealing..."

"I get the style Jennie is going for, but honestly, it’s not a perfect fit. It doesn’t suit her, and it’s not sexy."

"That amount of exposure is fine, but the outfit itself isn’t pretty… If it weren’t Jennie wearing it, it’d just look like a rag."

"Setting everything aside, it’s just not pretty and looks too revealing."

"She’s targeting an international audience, so I just see it as a cultural difference."

"She's in America so it's okay."

"There are so many pretty outfits... but the ones she's wearing aren't even pretty."

"I don't get why international fans like those eccentric outfits so much."

"She's so thin."
