You & Me was first revealed by Jennie during Blackpink's Born Pink world tour. The song has been performed by the YG Entertainment group's member many times in major cities, making it relatively familiar to fans.
You & Me conveys a subtle message of love, highlighted by the captivating image of Jennie's dancing silhouette against a beautiful and magical full moon. It is known that the cover photo of You & Me is a collaboration with the artist who created the famous manga Sailor Moon - Takeuchi Naoko.
You & Me is Jennie's second solo music release since Solo , released 5 years ago. According to Naver, the song was recorded 4 years ago but has not been released.

According to YG Entertainment, You & Me was released on digital streaming platforms as Jennie's gift to fans for the love they showed throughout Blackpink's tour.
During the Born Pink tour in Vietnam in July, Vietnamese fans also had the opportunity to listen to Jennie sing You & Me directly at My Dinh Stadium.
You & Me was released at a time when the results of contract renewal negotiations between Blackpink members and their management company YG Entertainment are still unknown.
According to some sources in Korea, Jennie is said to leave YG Entertainment to establish her own company and manage her own artistic activities.
The release of the MV You & Me is considered a response from YG Entertainment and Jennie to the recent news that Blackpink group terminated their contract.
Jennie was born in South Korea but grew up mainly in New Zealand. She signed a contract with the Korean entertainment group - YG Entertainment - when she was only 15 years old. She decided to give up the opportunity to study abroad at a prestigious school in the US to pursue her dream of becoming an entertainment star.
In 2016, Jennie officially debuted to the global audience as a member of the group Blackpink and took on the role of main rapper.

In addition to music, Jennie is also a prominent face in the fashion industry, becoming the darling of many famous fashion brands. Jennie's beauty, a mixture of charm and cuteness, is considered the new beauty standard in the Korean entertainment industry.
In addition to her success in singing and fashion, Jennie made her first attempt at acting in 2023. However, the first movie Jennie appeared in - The Idol - became the focus of Asian media with negative reactions.
In The Idol , Jennie appeared with bold scenes and lines. The image of a pure female idol seemed to be completely destroyed when the content of The Idol was criticized for being vulgar and disrespectful to women.
Despite her much-criticized role in The Idol , Jennie said acting is one of the things she wants to explore and pursue. "I want the new chapter of my acting life to be authentic and natural, rather than just trying to grab any opportunity that comes my way," she said.
In addition to acting, Jennie also contributed her voice to the main song of the movie The Idol. She performed the song One of the Girls in collaboration with The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp. One of the Girls has also been a hit on most European and American music charts recently.
