BLINKs, JENNIE is your fallen angel.
The South Korea-born, New Zealand-raised BLACKPINK star steps out on her own for Fallen Angel, the three-track digital EP that dropped as the clock struck midnight.
It’s a collection that comes “from a very personal place with the truest self-expression,” reads an announcement, posted just last week by Odd Atelier, the singer-actress’ own company and label. “A gift from JENNIE, with love.”

The gift, well, it’s unwrapped and available for streaming below. The title from Fallen Angel arrives with an official music video, a fairytale that could be inspired by the work of Tim Burton. It’s a balancing act of light and dark, of bonfires and flowers. Of butterflies and bad dreams. Poetry and pain. JENNIE is the connecting tissue. “Thorns may be the sharpest, fiercest thing on this earth,” we learn in the spoken word outro. “And yet, they bloom into the world’s most beautiful roses.”

The clip culminates in a fiery finale. But fear not, no one was set ablaze. A disclaimer accompanying the music video assures that all fire depicted in it was created using VFX (CG), and that “all scenes involving minors were filmed in a safe environment under appropriate supervision.” Good to know.
At the top, as a child is boxed in on a stage of warped little houses, we learn that “human greed has made them grow so heavy.” As the camera pulls back, we see a surreal foggy landscape, backed by domineering skyscrapers. Those bent dwellings have eyes. “But little one, close your eyes like I do,” that narrator explains, in Korean. “We can still fly. Free as can be.”
Fallen Angel collects the title track, plus “Heaven,” which the K-pop icon debuted last month when she headlined the final night of Open’er Festival in Gdynia, Poland; and “Less Than a Lover.”
“It’s a song I wrote thinking about summer,” she told the audience before performing “Less Than A Lover.” “It feels really special to share new music with this many people.” She added: “I really can’t wait to share this new music with you soon.”
