The post quickly sparked controversy due to the ongoing genocide in Gaza, where Israel’s horrific military actions against Palestinians have led to widespread international criticism. Because of the situation, many public figures and brands have faced pressure online over perceived connections to Israel.

The comments section of the post was flooded with accusations, with many labeling Jennie a “Zionist” and criticizing her for allegedly supporting Israel.

The controversy soon spread to X (formerly Twitter), where fans debated Jennie’s involvement. Some argued that her participation in Adidas promotions appearing on Israel-specific social media accounts shows a lack of awareness or responsibility.


On the other hand, BLACKPINK fans pointed out that Jennie’s Adidas partnership is part of a global campaign. Because of this, promotional images are often distributed across many regional Adidas accounts, including those in different countries.
