[INSTIZ] "Stand alone" Jenny, register your name in English "Jenny Ruby Jane"
Jennie (28), a member of girl group Blackpink who recently left the famous domestic entertainment agency YG Entertainment and began solo activities, has acquired the trademark rights for her English name.
According to Star News on the 2nd, Jennie registered the trademark for her English name 'JENNIE RUBY JANE' last month. She applied for the trademark at the Patent Office in January of last year. After completing the exam, she filed an objection in April for two months and recently made a registration decision.
Jennie's real name is Kim Jennie. She previously revealed on a TV show that she chose a pure Korean name. She also has the name 'Jenny Ruby Jane', having studied abroad in New Zealand as a child.
When she appeared in the American HBO drama 'The Idol', which aired in June and July last year, she used the name 'Jenny Ruby Jane' instead of her stage name 'Jenny'. 'Idol' was Jenny's first acting challenge, and she was invited to the Cannes Film Festival for her appearance in this work.
Jennie also uses 'JENNIE RUBY JANE' on her personal Instagram and YouTube accounts. This highlights her special attachment to the name. Jennie has applied for a trademark for this name not only in Korea but also in the United States.
Meanwhile, Jennie's exclusive contract with YG Entertainment, with which she had been associated since her trainee days, expired in August of last year. She later founded her own independent label, “ODD ATELIER,” and began her solo career later that year. She has maintained a contract with YG Entertainment only for Blackpink's group activities.
