People wonder why this simple dance step created so much talk. Jennie is a grown woman and a professional artist. She takes an active part in creating her own performances. Fans ask netizens to let her breathe and enjoy her work in peace. They believe she should have the freedom to express herself on stage without facing judgement.
In addition, some people criticised her for lip-syncing during parts of the songs. They felt it spoilt the live experience.
