BLACKPINK’s Jennie becomes unexpected study aid for Korean History Proficiency Test takers.

Online forums have been buzzing with reactions to the 77th Korean History Proficiency Test, which took place on the 7th. Surprisingly, many test-takers credit K-pop star Jennie for helping them answer a key question correctly.

The question in spotlight asked participants to identify a cultural artifact from the Silla dynasty. Among various options from different historical periods, the correct answer was the ornate golden crown of Silla.

Students shared their experiences online, with many saying, “As soon as I saw ‘Silla,’ Jennie popped into my head. Scenes from her music video flashed through my mind, and I immediately picked option 4.” These comments have sparked amusement among netizens.

The connection to Jennie stems from her pre-release single “ZEN” from her solo album “Ruby.” In the music video, Jennie donned a striking V-shaped metallic outfit inspired by the Silla golden crown ornaments, which had previously garnered significant attention.

The designer of Jennie’s outfit had explained on social media that the look was inspired by the Silla golden crown, aiming to symbolize a phoenix in flight. The unexpected overlap between Jennie’s iconic look and the test question has led some students to playfully dub her the “top lecturer for the Korean History Proficiency Test,” sparking a wave of positive reactions.

In other news, BLACKPINK, Jennie’s group, is set to make their comeback with the mini-album “DEADLINE” on the 27th.
