Jennie joined The Weeknd on stage in Seoul on October 8, 2026, and 54,000 fans were there for it. It was the first time the two had ever performed "One of the Girls" together live. The Weeknd had been singing Jennie's parts himself at every earlier stop on the tour. Here's how the night unfolded, what the song means by the numbers, and why doing it in Seoul made it hit differently.

What's Actually New About the Seoul Performance

Before Seoul, The Weeknd had performed "One of the Girls" at tour stops without Jennie, singing her parts himself. The October 8 show was the first time Jennie joined him live to perform it as a duet.

It was only the second time Jennie had performed the song live at all. She had sung it solo at Governors Ball in June 2026. Seoul was the first time she sang it alongside The Weeknd.

The setting gave the moment extra weight. Seoul is Jennie's home city. The crowd had waited eight years for The Weeknd to return. And the song had already made history for Korean artists in the United States. Singing it live, together, in front of a home crowd, was the full-circle moment the song had been pointing toward since it came out.

The Weeknd Tour Making History

The After Hours Til Dawn Tour is one of the biggest tours in music history. By the time The Weeknd reached Seoul, it had grossed over $1 billion across more than 150 shows and sold approximately 7.5 million tickets.

The Seoul dates were significant on their own. This was The Weeknd's first time playing in the city in eight years. Both nights sold out Goyang Stadium, putting roughly 108,000 fans in seats across the two shows.

He felt the room. During the show, The Weeknd ad-libbed "Korea, this is Goyang City," to a loud reaction from the crowd. At the end of the night he told them: "I promise I will definitely come back to Korea. Soon, I will be back soon."

"One of the Girls," by the Numbers

"One of the Girls" first appeared on June 23, 2023, tied to the HBO series The Idol. It got a standalone single release on December 8, 2023. In under 3 years, it set records for Korean music in the United States.

Nearly 2.79 billion streams, and they had never sung it together on a stage. Until October 8.
