JENNIE joined The Weeknd on stage at Goyang Stadium in South Korea on Oct. 8 for the first live performance of their collaboration 'One of the Girls'.

The appearance came during the second night of The Weeknd's After Hours Til Dawn concert run at the stadium. The duet had never been performed live before, according to Billboard.

'One of the Girls' was released in 2023 as part of The Idol Episode 4 (Music From the HBO Original Series). The studio version also features Lily-Rose Depp. She did not take part in the Goyang performance.

The track reached No. 51 on the Billboard Hot 100, the chart that ranks singles in the United States. For JENNIE, the song followed her acting debut on HBO's The Idol, the series for which the music was recorded.

The Goyang dates on Oct. 7 and 8 were The Weeknd's first shows in South Korea since 2018. About 108,000 tickets were sold across the two nights. The Oct. 8 concert was presented as Hyundai Card Super Concert 28 The Weeknd, according to Korea JoongAng Daily.

What makes this stand out for fans is the wait. Three years after release, the song got its stage debut in front of a stadium crowd.

The stadium run continues in Asia. The Weeknd's official website lists Goyang Stadium in Seoul, Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok, Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong and the National Stadium in Kuala Lumpur as tour venues, with additional Bangkok and Hong Kong dates marked as new shows.
