BLACKPINK’s new tour
BLACKPINK’s new tour: Hyun-suk added, “We are working hard so that many YG artists can meet with many fans.”
BLACKPINK’s last tour in 2022 included 66 shows with over 1.8 million tickets sold. Although the group never officially disbanded, all four members: Jennie, Lisa, Rosé and Jisoo, signed individual contracts to pursue solo musical endeavors. The four artists then all re-signed as BLACKPINK to YG Entertainment in 2023, per the BBC.
On June 20, BLACKPINK revealed on Instagram that their 2022 tour was turned into a concert film titled BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR BORN PINK IN CINEMAS, which begins limited screening on July 31.
BLACKPINK’s new tour: The group also announced on Weverse on July 19 that they will be hosting a special signing event on Aug. 8 for 88 fans “who best express their love for BLACKPINK through fan letters, drawings, photos, or stories about their precious memories with BLACKPINK.” The contest will only be available for BLINK Membership subscribers.
The South Korean girl band — whose name was inspired by the mixture of tough “black” and flirty “pink” aspects present in their music and stage persona — first rose to fame thanks to their 2016 single “Boombayah,” which quickly hit No. 1 on Billboard’s World Digital Songs chart.
The group’s second studio album Born Pink (2022) topped U.S. and U.K. album charts and further solidified their fame, culminating in a headlining performance at Coachella in 2023.
BLACKPINK’s new tour: Individually, BLACKPINK’s members have all achieved success as well. Jisoo has starred in the JTBC historical K-drama series Snowdrop (also available to stream on Disney+).
Jennie was named the face of Hera, a Seoul-based beauty company, in 2021, and starred opposite Lily-Rose Depp in HBO’s The Idol.
Rosé released her solo project, R, in March 2021.
Lisa released her debut solo project, LALISA, in September 2021, which features the songs “Lalisa” and “Money,” the former of which won the MTV Video Music Award for best K-pop video in 2022 and earned a Guinness World Record and broke multiple YouTube viewership records.
