South Korea's sensational K-pop powerhouse Blackpink is set to drop a highly anticipated new album and embark on a global tour spanning multiple continents in 2025, as confirmed by their management, YG Entertainment.
Blackpink's Born Pink world tour wrapped up in spectacular fashion on September 17 last year, cementing its place in history as the highest-grossing tour by a K-pop act from 56 reported shows.
The tour raked in over USD 260 million and drew more than 1.8 million fans across 66 shows in 34 cities worldwide, including a landmark performance at Coachella.
Their album soared to the top of the Billboard 200, and the tour's cinematic release, spanning over 110 countries, becoming the largest-ever debut for a female group.
Following the conclusion of their Born Pink world tour on September 17, 2023, all members are currently focused on their individual projects and pursuits, showcasing their diverse talents beyond the group.
Lalisa Manobal, better known as Lisa, recently dropped two singles, Rockstar and New Woman, earlier this year. On Nov 29, she released a festive remix of Moonlit Floor, titled Moonlit Floor Santa Baby Remix. Lisa is also gearing up for the highly anticipated release of her debut solo album, Alter Ego, set for February 28 next year. Beyond her music career, Lisa is making her acting debut in HBO's The White Lotus Season 3, currently filming in her home country, Thailand, marking her exciting foray into the world of acting.
For Jennie, whose full name is Jennie Kim, she recently released her single called Mantra on Oct 11 while also anticipating a debut solo album next year. Just like Lisa, other than a singer, she is also venturing on an entrepreneurship journey by launching her own fashion company called ODD Atelier early this year, making her a current prominent figure in global fashion campaigns.
Rosé on the other hand, full name Roseanne Park recently announced a debut studio album called Rosie set for release on Dec 6 (today). Her pre-release single "Apt." that dropped on Oct 18 had received significant international success, done in collaboration with Bruno Mars.
She is also currently the global ambassador for brands like Yves Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co.
Last but not least, Jisoo (Kim Ji-soo) born in South Korea has appeared not just as a singer but an actress, like Lisa, who successfully became the lead role in the K-drama Snowdrop in 2021, while currently exploring new acting opportunities. She is not set on any debut solo albums yet, though rumour has it that she is working on solo music projects.
Jisoo is currently the global ambassador for Dior and Cartier.
Other than Blackpink, YG is also planning to make 2025 a pivotal year for other artists such as Babymonster, Winner and Treasure, further elevating YG in the global presence.
As they gear up for another year of record-breaking achievements and electrifying performances, their devoted fans, affectionately known as Blinks, can look forward to more iconic music and unforgettable moments from their favorite superstars.
