Was Jennie's Instagram hacked? Here's how BLACKPINK singer got it back after months as fans seek her privacy

After remaining inactive all this while, the BLACKPINK member on Monday said: 'Took almost 2 months to get this acc back. Please leave my personal space alone'

Was Jennie’s personal account hacked? This question surfaced on the Internet after the singer took to her personal Instagram account on Monday, November 30, to post a story explicitly, asking her followers to leave her personal space alone. Jennie reportedly got her Instagram account back after two months as it was speculated to be hacked.

After remaining inactive all this while, the BLACKPINK member on Monday said: "Took almost 2 months to get this acc back. Please leave my personal space alone." Soon after the story was posted, Jennie's fans started rallying around the singer in support of her privacy and personal space on social media with numerous "RespectJennie" posts. A fan shared a screenshot of the story stating, "Jennie finally got back her photography account after almost 2 months.. please leave her alone!"

Privacy is almost a myth for K-pop stars as they get photographed everywhere and each of their social media move is monitored by millions of users online, not to mention the hate that they receive if anything remotely offends anyone or a particular community. But even with everything aside, Jennie opened a personal Instagram account with the username, "lesyuxdenini", to show her followers a different side of the 24-year singer/rapper where she uploaded moody snaps and a lot of personal content regarding her friends and family. Her fans have shared that the personal account had been hacked by a stranger, and it almost took two months for the singer to get it back.

Blinks have been pouring supportive posts for Jennie. A fan posted, “She's never one to talk about herself or this stuff. We've seen malicious things said & written about Jennie – none of it fazed her. BUT YOU REALLY HAD TO MAKE HER ADDRESS IT. You dont realize that one little page is the only space she has to express herself and you had to ruin it.” Another said, “jennie opened lesyeuxdenini as a gift to blinks for their 3rd anniversary. lesyeuxdenini has special meaning for her, she prepared for months before showing it to the public. It’s okay if you don’t like her. Just respect and leave her alone.”

An enraged fan posted, "and some of yall here complain they don't wanna interact with us when someone really had the nerve to hack her personal account, a gift for us from jennie.. yall are sick", while a user said “the fact that she had to say “please” when she should’t have to in the first place. y’all deserve a place in h£ll. LEAVE JENNIE ALONE.” Followed up by another which read: “She was still so kind and polite even though she had all the rights to be furious, but the fact that she called out the hack proves how hurt she was and everyone who knows jennie can notice it, I'm so damn mad.” A fan stated, "Jennie started lesyeudexnini as a gift to her fans, to share her moments with us. What even is the reason for yall to hack her??? Just leave her alone what do yall even get for doing this, sick mfs."

Jennie's Instagram profile currently has 1.7 million followers, her official account has more than 36 million followers, one of the highest followed accounts of K-pop stars on the photo-sharing platform.
