Jennie initially met G-Dragon of Bigbang back in 2012, long before her days in Blackpink. The label mates worked together on the music video "That XX," which was released in 2012. One year later, in 2013, Jennie collaborated with G-Dragon again on his song "Black." Nearly eight years after they met, Dispatch reported on Feb. 24, 2021, that the pair had been dating for a year, though the artist's label, YG Entertainment, said at the time (via AllKpop), "We can't confirm anything about our artists' private lives. We ask for your understanding."
The details of their relationship remained private after the Dispatch announcement in February, but by May 2022, it seemed the pair had split as Jennie was linked with BTS's V.
