‘Don’t Play with the Boys’ — Jennie Responds Boldly, ‘It’s My Life’ to Her ‘Mother’’s Nagging

BLACKPINK member Jennie (Kim Jennie, 30) caught attention with her confident response to her Italian mother's nagging.

The latest episode of JTBC’s “My Name is Gabriel,” aired on the 4th, featured Jennie’s final story as she took on the life of Maria, the owner of an Italian farm stay.

On this day, Jennie approached guests sunbathing in the garden and asked, “Are you enjoying the sunshine? Would you like me to make you something to drink? How about a spritz?”

Jennie expressed, “This is something I really wanted to do. I wanted to make something I learned from my mom, a spritz.” While heading to the kitchen, she unintentionally said, “I’m jealous.”

When MC Defconn asked, “What are you jealous of?” Jennie revealed, “I genuinely thought I wished I could be here as a guest. It’s just so nice.”

She brought the spritz she made to male guests, saying, “I want to sit here too,” actively mingling with them.

However, the peaceful afternoon was short-lived. A little later, Maria called Jennie over to prepare for the evening guests and scolded her, saying, “Don’t play with the boys.” Jennie cheekily responded, “It’s my life,” which made everyone laugh. She confessed, “I really thought it was a conversation between me and my mom.”

Meanwhile, “My Name is Gabriel” is a story where global K-pop star Jennie experiences the life of Maria, a 1995-born innkeeper.

As the time for parting drew near, Jennie also said goodbye to her animal friends, including the horse Bambi and the dog Clea.

Receiving a video message from her Italian mother, Jennie tearfully said, “I think I will remember the time spent here when I feel tired and exhausted in life.”
