BLACKPINK's Jennie released Monday the artwork for her upcoming single "Mantra," set to release on Friday at 9 a.m., through her official social media channels.

In the artwork, Jennie showcased a fresh and alluring charm, offering a different side of Jennie compared to her previous works.

"Mantra" will be Jennie's first solo release since her special single "You & Me" in October last year. Teaser videos, images and snippets of the track have already been shared, fueling excitement among global fans as her comeback draws near.

The concept photos include intriguing phrases such as “This that pretty girl mantra,” “Check you like commas” and “She's that stunna,” sparking curiosity and increasing anticipation for her new song.

Having built an impressive career both as a member of BLACKPINK and as a solo artist, Jennie is once again expected to captivate fans worldwide with her new song "Mantra."

Last year, Jennie received platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America for her collaboration with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp on "One Of The Girls." In addition, her music video for "SOLO" surpassed 1 billion views in April, making her the first K-pop female artist to achieve this milestone.
