240903 Jennie will appear on ‘My Name is Gabriel’ on Sept 27th & Oct 4th

**[OSEN=Reporter Yeon Hwi-seon] Jennie, a member of girl group Blackpink, will appear on PD Kim Tae-ho’s entertainment show ‘My Name is Gabriel’.**

According to OSEN’s coverage, Jennie recently finished filming for the JTBC variety program ‘My Name is Gabriel (abbreviated as Gabriel)’. The show is scheduled to air on Friday, September 27th and Friday, October 4th, spanning two weeks.

Jennie’s appearance in ‘Gabriel’ was raised early on. However, she expressed an official statement saying, “I declined the appearance in order to focus on album work.” In fact, PD Kim Tae-ho previously stated to OSEN when the dazzling casting lineup including actors Park Bo-gum and Ji Chang-wook was announced, “We did offer Jennie an appearance, but it is still not confirmed, so we are being cautious.”

According to entertainment industry insiders, there were claims that Jennie had deep concerns about solo activities, especially appearing in variety shows as a non-musician. As she had already appeared in a variety show called ‘Apartment 404’ on tvN from February to April, there was a sense of burden in announcing consecutive solo variety show activities before delivering news about the full group Blackpink.

Recently, all members of BLACKPINK, including Jenny, Lisa, Rose, and Jisoo, confirmed a full comeback and world tour with YG Entertainment in 2025. After announcing their continuation as BLACKPINK, the members feel less pressure to pursue solo careers.

‘My Name is Gabriel’ is a program where you live ‘real life’ for 72 hours in the name of one of the world’s 8 billion people where no one knows you. From actors such as Park Bo-gum, Yum Hye-ran, and Ji Chang-wook to broadcasters Park Myeong-soo and Hong Jinkyung, YouTuber Dex, and Dancer Garvey, etc., show the lives of colorful others. Broadcast every Friday at 10:30 pm.
