“Hi, this is Jennie. This year was filled with many accomplishments, and I’m so thankful for all the love I’ve received. I’m also excited about what’s to come, as I start my solo journey in 2024 with a company that I have established called OA. Please show lots of love for my new start with OA and of course BLACKPINK. Thank you,” wrote Jennie.
Founded in November 2023, OA has already set its digital footprint with an Instagram page, providing a glimpse into its ethos. The acronym OA stands for ODD ATELIER, emphasizing its mission to “create new things that attract attention in a different way from what is usual or expected.” A sneak peek at the label’s offerings was shared, featuring black hoodies adorned with the distinctive OA logo.
As BLACKPINK’s members continue to carve out individual paths while reinforcing their collective strength, Jennie’s venture into the entrepreneurial landscape with OA adds an intriguing chapter to the ongoing narrative of K-pop’s global dominance.
