An accompanying music video for "Like Jennie" was directed by Hanbago (Han Gyeol Lee) and released alongside the single on March 7.[21] It was live streamed upon its release on a large billboard in Shinsegae Square, Seoul.[22] At the start of the clip, Jennie comes into frame pulling back red curtains.[23] She appears onscreen as an astronaut wearing a ruby red spacesuit.[11] She swallows something in the shape of the letter "J" floating in the air, resulting in her eye color changing and her outfit transforming into a "hip styling".[23] Jennie then begins chanting and dancing to the chorus, performing intense choreography with a large crew of backup dancers.[24] At the end of the video, wearing the same red spacesuit from the beginning, she catches on fire and transforms into a capybara. Next to the capybara lies a blue rose, signaling Jennie's new birth
"Like Jennie" is a self-assured, high-energy ride through the cosmos of pop stardom. Released on March 7, 2025, as the fourth single from the K-Pop star's debut solo album Ruby, the song is an exercise in self-celebration, a thumping declaration that there is, in fact, no one quite like Jennie. Jennie co-wrote the song with frequent Ariana Grande collaborator Tayla Parx and Amanda "Kiddo A.I." Ibanez. To add a little linguistic flair, there is also a rap section featuring Korean lyrics penned by Zico, with whom Jennie previously collaborated in 2024 on the track "Spot!" American producer Diplo created a high-energy soundscape with his signature concoction of frenetic beats and eclectic soundscapes. Diplo has also worked with the likes of Beyoncé, Madonna, and Justin Bieber, and is a member of the electronic dancehall project Major Lazer. Directed by Lee Han-gyeol, the video opens with Jennie in a ruby-red astronaut suit aboard a spacecraft, symbolizing her readiness to explore new artistic realms. The visual prominently features the color red throughout, aligning with the album's title, Ruby, and symbolizing passion and empowerment. Curiously, this is not the first time someone has recorded a song about a Jenny (or Jennie) for an album called Ruby. Macy Gray did precisely that with "Just Like Jenny" a track on her 2018 Ruby album. Her version is a raspy, upbeat affair brimming with playful storytelling. Despite the eerie similarity in names, the two songs are totally unrelated. Kiddo A.I., Tayla Parx and Diplo wrote the song at Diplo's house in Malibu. It was Kiddo's first time working with Diplo and Parx; she was very nervous because she's a huge fan of both. "When we got there, we went through a couple of different tracks, but nothing made sense," she recalled to Billboard. "Then Tayla and I were like, 'We need something hard and just so in-your-face. This is Jennie's song, right? So let's make a song called "Like Jennie."' Jennie freaked out. She loved it."
