Jennie from BLACKPINK recently completed a memorable run at the 'Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival,' one of the biggest music events in the United States. While her performances were nothing short of stunning, it was a simple, heartfelt moment that captured the internet’s attention. During her final performance, Jennie looked into the crowd and shouted in Korean, “엄마 사랑해,” which means “I love you, Mom.”

On April 21, Jennie took the stage at Coachella’s Outdoor Theatre, becoming the first K-pop solo artist to perform on that stage. She performed thirteen songs from her debut solo album 'Ruby,' including fan favorites like 'Like Jennie.' The audience was fully engaged, singing along, cheering, and chanting her name throughout the set.

After finishing her performance, Jennie thanked the crowd, expressing how much the night meant to her. She told fans she would never forget the evening and how much she loved them. Spotting her mother in the audience, she then shouted her love in Korean, creating a touching moment that was caught on video. Her mother, visibly moved, wiped away tears. That moment quickly spread across social media and YouTube, touching fans around the world.

Reactions poured in online. Many people said her mom must be incredibly proud, with others calling Jennie a legendary daughter and admitting the moment made them tear up too.

This wasn’t Jennie’s only Coachella appearance. She also performed on the first weekend, delivering another standout performance that earned her a spot on Billboard’s list of the best performances from the first week. She was the only K-pop artist included. Her performance of 'Like Jennie' became a trending video on YouTube, reaching second place on the worldwide music video trending chart and third place among all trending videos.

With her powerful presence and genuine emotion, Jennie reminded fans around the world why she continues to be one of the most loved and respected artists in the industry.
