231005 NAVER News: Jennie will join tvN’s new Korean Variety Show ‘Apartment 404’ (tentative title)

Blackpink member Jennie is making a surprise entry into domestic entertainment.

An entertainment industry official informed Sports Chosun on the 5th, “Blackpink’s Jennie will join tvN’s new entertainment program ‘Apartment 404’ (working title).” ‘Apartment 404’ is a new variety show created by PD Jung Cheol-min, who previously worked with Jennie on ‘Micheorire 8-1000.’ This upcoming variety show, set in an apartment, will showcase Jung Cheol-min’s distinctive style, known for creating numerous ‘mission’ programs.

Jung Cheol-min, a representative PD who led the resurgence of ‘Running Man,’ successfully created the ‘Sixth Sense’ series and ‘Skip’ after moving to CJ ENM, earning viewer support. Having collaborated with Jennie on ‘Micheorire 8-1000,’ expectations are high for their perfect chemistry. Jung Cheol-min’s program promises to reveal a completely new side of Jennie that fans haven’t seen during Blackpink activities alone.

Furthermore, a collaboration with Yoo Jae-suk is anticipated. Yoo Jae-suk, who has experienced working with Jennie on ‘Micheorire,’ is expected to bring out 100% of Jennie’s charm, making their reunion after about five years a highlight of the show.

Jennie, a member of the globally renowned girl group Blackpink, has showcased her solo talents beyond Korea. Her solo stage ‘You & Me,’ which amazed everyone during the Blackpink World Tour on the 6th, is set to be officially released. Recently, Blackpink members have been active both individually and as a group. Lisa appeared in the famous 19+ adult show ‘Crazy Horse’ in Paris, while Jisoo and Rosé are engaged in solo activities.

‘Apartment 404’ is currently in the process of recruiting guests and is scheduled to air on tvN in the first half of next year.”
