Jennie Debuts ‘Dracula’ Live at First Solo China Show Jennie Kim made history on Sunday night (March 22) by delivering her first solo performance in China, marking a pivotal moment for her career. The K-pop icon took the stage at the Complex Live music festival at Hong Kong’s AsiaWorld-Expo, uniting fans from both her Blackpink era and her solo fanbase, the “Rubies,” under one roof. The sold-out crowd, eager to experience every facet of Jennie’s artistry, witnessed a tight 10-song, 30-minute set that drew heavily from her 2025 debut solo album, Ruby. The performance was a blend of her signature choreography-driven R&B style, infused with hip-hop and club influences. Jennie’s bold, edgy persona shone through, as she frequently incorporated swearing into her lyrics and embraced a more unapologetic stage presence compared to many of her female K-pop counterparts. Her set included a dramatic rendition of “Dracula,” where she emerged in a striking black coat that blurred the lines between cape and couture, fully immersing herself in a gothic fantasy aesthetic. The energy peaked during “Damn Right,” where her catwalk-like movements transformed the stage into a runway, and she closed with the anthemic “Like Jennie,” donning her Gentle Monster shades for a powerful finish. The event was part of the third annual ComplexCon Hong Kong, a fashion and pop-culture exhibition that drew thousands to the AsiaWorld-Expo. Jennie’s performance was a highlight of the festival, which also featured other major acts like rapper Yeat, Jay Park, and ALLDAYPROJECT. Bonnie Chan Woo, CEO of Complex China, praised Jennie’s ability to captivate audiences, noting her dedication to creativity and the unique elements she brought to the performance. “Her presence in Hong Kong, even a year after her solo album release, meant so much,” Chan Woo said.#complexcon_hong_kong #complex_live #jennie_kim #kasing_lung #ruby
