As many people are aware, the K-pop music industry is rigorous in terms of training and selection; nevertheless, it becomes even more demanding when idols debut and fly to new heights with their musical productions. Endless meetings and rehearsals surely leave artists exhausted and tired.

Jennie from BLACKPINK is one of the most well-known international performers in the music industry. With her exceptional talent, incomparable musical abilities, and charm, the singer proves that she is just like any other average person when it comes to getting out of bed in the morning.

Ever since Jennie created her official YouTube channel, Jennierubyjane Official, the K-pop idol has been entertaining fans with wholesome content and has also invited special guests including her groupmate Jisoo.

While fans look up to Jennie for various reasons, her latest YouTube vlog was probably something the Blinks have been waiting for a while as the singer dropped her special self-care routine and habits in the video.

During her vlog, BLACKPINK's Jennie spoke about her alarm setting and stated that if she ever forgets to set an alarm, her manager usually calls her to make sure she is awake. The key to an effective alarm is the sound and vibration patterns, and Jennie explained that she uses the popular iPhone sound and described that it wakes her up instantly.

Later in the video, Jennie showed fans her alarm settings, which surprised everyone because the K-pop idol, too, sets many alarms to wake up in the morning. Rather than a few options, Jennie tends to set an alarm for almost every hour of the day with a five-minute gap.

However, BLACKPINK’s Jennie clarified that she usually wakes up after her first alarm, proving that she is certainly responsible when it comes to waking up and getting ready for the day.

Fan reactions

Jennie's alarm schedule rapidly attracted the attention of fans worldwide because of how relatable it was to the general public as soon as she uploaded her fun-filled video. Fans were awestruck by the amusing similarity and agreed with Jennie on her alarm settings.

Despite being on an extended hiatus, BLACKPINK members make it a point to update their fans, known as Blinks, with every possible scheduled activity by uploading pictures and videos from their new projects and collaborations.

While each member has focused on individual activities over the past year and a half, many fans are highly-anticipating the group’s return to the music industry, however, their agency, YG Entertainment, has not released any official notice regarding BLACKPINK’s comeback.
