Yet, the idol has continued to spark criticism with a video from the show the group held at the Tokyo Dome the day after the celebration.
In a viral tweet about Jennie’s performance, a fan claimed that on the second day at the Tokyo Dome, they had a theory that, given the nature of her solo performance, Jennie was “hungover.”

At the club the night before, [Jennie] got too excited, more excited than [when] the concert [took place].
Thought she only hates performing in South East Asian countries but she also hates East Asians 😂😂 https://t.co/UFyfWqpPrh

Crazy how unprofessionalism doesn’t matter when you’ve got the right connections. Media play really does all the heavy lifting ,talent is optional now, apparently. What’s worse is the privilege she enjoys, while her fandom acts superior as if she has even an ounce of it. https://t.co/3gicUOhyy1

she’s never beating the allegations instead, she keeps getting dragged for the same reason year after year, even until now. Meanwhile, her fans keep defending her laziness and treating her like one of the greatest performers. she’s so mid, lazy, and overrated. DESERVED https://t.co/UmVXTZOeHf pic.twitter.com/fgEx9EKc12
