| @ygselect/Twitter All of the products were available on Weverse to preorder and had a wide range of prices, but they were still deemed expensive as they didn’t include shipping.
When the products were posted, netizens couldn’t hide the “lack of effort” that was put into the products.
In particular, with such a beautiful concept and design work by the OG artist, they could’ve done a lot of things with the products. Instead, YG Entertainment just took the OG design and plastered it on the merchandise. After finally releasing the song, many thought Jennie deserved much more.

Ain't no way I waited for this half assed merch for more than a week. The art itself will always look beautiful, but they literally just pasted the design on it and called it a day. This feels like a missed opportunity on so many levels. https://t.co/Xu3BJHSGa6

After waiting so long for Jennie to release another song officially and the excitement for the collaboration with Takeuchi, BLINKs have expressed their disappointment. In particular, amidst conversations about BLACKPINK’s contract renewal, fans believe Jennie deserves more.
