BLACKPINK’s Jennie Gets Sweet ‘My Name is Gabriel’ Poster
BLACKPINK’s Jennie will be starring in the JTBC variety program “My Name is Gabriel.” On September 3, JTBC confirmed her appearance with a poster that showcases Jennie as “Maria.” This variety show, produced by PD Kim Tae Ho of “Infinite Challenge” fame, allows cast members to experience the lives of others for 72 hours.
Jennie’s episodes will air on September 27 and October 4 (episodes 13 and 14). For her role, Jennie will immerse herself in the life of Maria, a 1996-born peer who runs a farmhouse bed and breakfast in a village near Rome, Italy. Throughout the episodes, she will perform daily tasks like welcoming guests, cooking, organizing banquets, and conducting cooking classes, giving fans a glimpse into Jennie’s interactions in a whole new environment.
The poster shows Jennie as Maria, engaging with peers and smiling while cooking, raising anticipation for her role on the show. This will be a fresh look at Jennie outside her usual stage persona, as she transforms into Maria for the show.
Additionally, a group poster featuring Jennie alongside the other seven “Gabriels” has been released. The show, which airs every Friday at 10:30 p.m. KST, includes stars like Park Bo Gum, Ji Chang Wook, and Hong Jin Kyung. Fans are excited to see Jennie’s participation in this new adventure.
In related news, BLACKPINK is also set for a comeback sometime in 2025. This will be immediately followed by a new world tour promoting their music to people across the globe.
The BLACKPINK 2025 comeback has not yet been given an official release date. In the meantime, fans can also watch Jennie in her upcoming episodes of “My Name is Gabriel” later in September.
