BLACKPINK’s Jennie is facing yet another wave of cruel bodyshaming after sharing candid snapshots from her daily life on Instagram. The photos — showing her at the gym, at home, and relaxing by the water in a black bikini — sparked a flood of harsh comments across online communities.

Rather than celebrating the casual update, a vocal minority of netizens targeted the idol’s body. Many ridiculed her for being too “flat,” while others jumped to her defense, arguing that her naturally slender figure is exactly what makes her striking.
The Cruel Comments
Screenshots of the harshest reactions spread quickly. Some comments mocked her appearance outright, with one reading, “Aside from the missing part… she looks like an ordinary person.”
Other netizens pushed back just as strongly. “Those perfectly round breasts created by stuffing silicone implants in… they’re just awful. These look so much better,” one wrote, while another added, “She’s a classic, slender beauty. Artificially enhancing her breasts actually makes her look worse.”
Not The First Time
Unfortunately, this isn’t new territory for Jennie. The idol has been subjected to repeated rounds of body criticism throughout her career. Just recently, one of her stage outfits became the target of what fans described as “disgusting” bodyshaming.
The pattern highlights a broader problem in K-pop culture, where female idols face relentless scrutiny over every aspect of their appearance — from their figures to their faces to their clothing choices.
Supporters flooded social media with messages defending Jennie, calling the shaming comments misogynistic and pointing out that a woman posting vacation photos shouldn’t have to endure a referendum on her body.
