Netizens joined in their criticism towards Jennie, pushing the narrative of her “lazy” performances, especially when it comes to shows in Asia.

Why are they performing like they lost a bet 😭 Everyone’s eyes glued to the floor is that choreography or pure disinterest? Coz they looked like they’d rather be anywhere else.

Yet, many fans defended Jennie as they saw that something got not just in her eyes but the other members which would have caused the reaction.
Guys, let’s be serious right now cause I’m an army too but if you see carefully their faces you can see that something happened on that stage in that moment that makes the girls can’t breathe or see correctly, all of them are acting the same way in that moment.

It bothers me that there are so many *diots here. Are you all blind?
All four girls were harmed. The point here is that the company failed to protect them. They’re performing for their fans, and they might even go blind! Is that okay? https://t.co/ojqpHwyIhO pic.twitter.com/3ApzT2T3h2
