Singer Jennie colored the outdoor music festival Coachella in the United States with a ruby (Hongok) glow. Dominating the large stage, she proudly stood tall worldwide not as K-pop group BLACKPINK, but as Jennie (JENNIE).

On the 13th (local time), Jennie appeared at the outdoor theater of the large outdoor music festival 'Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival' (hereafter Coachella) held in California, USA.

She was the first K-pop female group member to perform on the Coachella stage in 2019, and in 2023, she was invited as the headliner (main performer) for the first time in Asia. Earlier, BLACKPINK member Lisa performed solo on the 11th.

Jennie presented a specially arranged setlist for Coachella, mainly featuring songs from her recently released first solo album 'Ruby'. Wearing a ruby-colored Western-style hat, jacket, and short bottoms, she opened the stage with 'All Filter' and passionately sang 'Mantra', 'Handlebars', and 'ZEN'.

During 'Damn Right', American singer Kali Uchis, who featured on the track, appeared on stage. When singing 'F.T.S', Jennie heated up the stage with her smooth and powerful vocals.

As the title track 'Like JENNIE' began, the audience's cheers grew louder. The crowd sang along in unison, and Jennie captivated attention with dazzling choreography synchronized with the dancers. After the performance, the audience responded by chanting her name.

Holding the microphone, Jennie said, "It feels like a dream to be back in this desert and perform at the outdoor theater. I didn't expect so many people to gather, but I hope everyone enjoys tonight. Thank you for coming to my stage."

BLACKPINK members Ros? and Lisa also attended the event. They posted videos enjoying the performance on social media and shared photos taken with Jennie after the stage ended.

Jennie will perform once more at Coachella on the 20th. Started in 1999, Coachella is a large-scale music festival held annually in the desert area of Indio's Coachella Valley, attracting over 200,000 spectators each year.
