BLACKPINK's Jennie lived the life of a Farm Stay owner in Italy's Paliano village
In the opening of episode 13, the show's host, Defconn, along with Lee Hae-ri and Kang Min-kyung, greeted the new guest, BLACKPINK's Jennie. The K-pop idol conveyed her enthusiasm for her experience filming for the show. Jennie was sent to Italy for her transformative experience.
The location was selected based on BLACKPINK's Jennie's preferences. In a separate video presented at the beginning of the broadcast, Jennie expressed her fondness for nature, animals, food plating, and Europe. She also disclosed that she would have pursued a career as an event planner had she not been a K-pop idol. Therefore, she was taken to the village of Paliano in Italy.
Her experience commenced upon her arrival in Napoli, Italy. Jennie was given a car, and she discovered a phone containing photographs of a horse and a dog. Jennie attempted to infer her responsibilities from these images. She believed that horseback riding would be her task. The vehicle transported her to a horse ranch near Paliano village, where she encountered Maria.
Maria informed her that Jennie would live her life for the next 72 hours, and the two individuals spent some time at the ranch. Jennie appeared at ease with the horse, having visited ranches during her studies in New Zealand. Maria presented Jennie to her horse, Bambi.
Maria subsequently escorted Jennie to her Farm Stay and disclosed that she was the woman in charge of the establishment. Maria departed from Farm Stay, leaving Jennie alone. Jennie also encountered Maria's dog, Chlea.
Maria's mother soon came, and Jennie greeted her. She escorted Jennie to her residence, where she acquired further insights about Maria, whose life she was then experiencing. She observed that Maria was an enthusiast of collecting figurines.
Maria's mother informed her that Maria managed the farm stay and was also a sommelier. Jennie, in the role of Maria, concocted Italian spritz. While they had their drinks, Jennie and the mother conversed about Maria's loss of her father and her subsequent bond with her horse, Bambi.
Afterward, they decided to have gnocchi as their evening meal. The mother instructed Jennie to gather vegetables from the garden. They both picked new produce from the garden and proceeded to prepare the meal. Jennie adhered to Maria's mother's guidance and prepared gnocchi. The food preparation process appeared to be an enjoyable experience for BLACKPINK's Jennie.
As they consumed their meal, a wild cat named Discoverina appeared. Maria's mother gave Jennie a philosophical talk on the concept that "Love is a choice," using their cat and dog as a reference. Jennie established an important bond with her mother on the first day.
After sleeping, she proceeded to manage the farm stay the following day. BLACKPINK's Jennie communicated with her staff during the meeting to clarify her responsibilities for the day. Her mother informed her she was required to receive some guests.
Jennie took Maria's vehicle and picked up three boys who had journeyed from Milan for their visit. During their return to the accommodation, one of them identified BLACKPINK's Jennie, resulting in a somewhat awkward situation.
As shown in the preview, Jennie's journey will continue in the next episode of My Name is Gabriel. In this episode, she will treat the guests and make pizzas.
Episode 14 of My Name is Gabriel is scheduled for October 4, 2024. The show airs on the JBTC television network, TVING, and Disney+.
