The text, which Jennie also wrote in Korean, ended with the artist asking fans to express support for her solo career with OA and as a part of BLACKPINK.

The label currently has Jennie has its only artist, and that Jennie established OA back in November — supposedly with the help of her mother, a director and shareholder of a Korean entertainment company.
Earlier this month Jennie and her BLACKPINK colleagues Rosé, Lisa, and Jisoo renewed an exclusive contract for group activities with YG Entertainment after the group's previous contract expired last August.
