On March 10, 2025, KBIZoom reported that BLACKPINK's Jennie addressed her dating rumors. This comes on the heels of the successful release of her debut solo album, Ruby, which was released on March 7.

During her interview with Amelia Dimoldenberg from the "CHICKEN SHOP DATE" series on March 8, the BLACKPINK rapper revealed that it's been a long time since she dated someone.

"I haven't been on a date in a very long time. So, this is [exhilarating]."

Previously, the Mantra rapper-singer had been linked with several K-pop idols like BIGBANG's G-Dragon, EXO's Kai, and BTS' Kim Taehyung (V). However, all these linkups were proven to be baseless.
