The bond between TWICE Nayeon and BLACKPINK Jennie

Despite not being in the same group or company, Jennie (BLACKPINK) and Nayeon (TWICE) have many things in common. 

Nayeon (TWICE) and Jennie (BLACKPINK) are two highly influential female idols today.  Not only that, they are also close friends.  Looking back at the past path of Jennie and Nayeon, fans realize that the two have many similarities.

Nayeon has recently been accused of copying Jennie’s style. Accordingly, the pose, makeup, and concept of the JYP female idol are all reminiscent of the BLACKPINK member. Fans have observed that this set of concept photos looks extremely similar to the images of Jennie on the cover of W magazine in the November 2020 issue.

This is not the first time Nayeon has been accused of copying Jennie.  In a group’s concept, the female idol’s image also makes people think of the main rapper of BLACKPINK.  In addition, Nayeon many times wore the same items as Jennie, causing great controversies.

In fact, Nayeon and Jennie have been friends since they were trainees.  The two often openly support each other.  However, at one point, the two’s relationship was rumored to be broken.  The reason is that Jennie became closer to Irene (Red Velvet) so she ignored Nayeon.
