SEOUL, April 16 (AJP) - Jennie, a member of K-pop girl group BLACKPINK, has been included in TIME magazine's annual list of the "100 Most Influential People" for this year released on Wednesday.
"What makes Jennie a true star is that even in her quiet moments, she possesses the same kind of undeniable presence that cuts through all the noise, and she carries that with kindness and warmth," the magazine wrote. "She is the type of person who will grab both your hands and squeeze them. She has a softness that only emphasizes her strength," it added.
The U.S. magazine has released its annual list of influential figures including political leaders, business executives, entertainers, and athletes who have made a significant impact around the world.
This year's list includes figures divided into six categories: Artists, Icons, Leaders, Innovators, Pioneers, and Titans, with Jennie becoming the only K-pop artist to make the list for this year.
Having earned global recognition as a K-pop star, she has garnered a devoted following through her versatility across music, fashion, and acting.
Meanwhile, the remixed version of her song "Dracula" in collaboration with Tame Impala, the music project of Australian singer and multi-instrumentalist Kevin Parker, has been nominated for "Song of the Summer" at this year's American Music Awards scheduled for late May.
Released last February, her song will also compete for the prize along with K-pop juggernaut BTS' latest track "SWIM" among other nominees.
