BLACKPINK’s Jennie Receives Scathing Criticism Over Her Different Reactions To Wildfires In LA And South Korea

-



BLACKPINK's Jennie has recently come under scrutiny for her differing responses to wildfires in Los Angeles and South Korea. Netizens have pointed out that during the LA wildfires, Jennie actively raised awareness and encouraged donations, whereas her reaction to the devastating wildfires in her home country appeared more subdued.



In 2018, when wildfires ravaged parts of Los Angeles, Jennie took to social media to express concern and urge her followers to support relief efforts. This proactive approach was met with appreciation from fans and the general public alike.


Conversely, during the recent wildfires in South Korea—the largest in the nation's history, affecting over 38,000 hectares and resulting in significant loss of life and property—Jennie's public response was notably absent. This contrast led to criticism from some netizens, who questioned her silence during a national crisis. A post on Nate Pann highlighted this discrepancy, noting her previous activism for international disasters compared to her lack of public commentary on domestic issues. 


However, it was later revealed that Jennie had donated ₩100 million KRW (approximately $68,400 USD) to the Hope Bridge Korea Disaster Relief Association to aid wildfire victims. Despite this generous contribution, some critics remained dissatisfied, emphasizing the absence of public statements to raise awareness, similar to her actions during the LA wildfires. 


Fans and supporters have come to Jennie's defense, arguing that personal donations do not always need to be publicized and that her charitable actions speak volumes. They also pointed out that expectations for celebrities to respond uniformly to every crisis can be unrealistic and that personal approaches to philanthropy may vary.

This situation underscores the complex expectations placed on public figures regarding social responsibility and the challenges they face in balancing personal actions with public perceptions.
