BLACKPINK is about to come back with a full album, hold a world tour before the contract expires?

Information about BLACKPINK's upcoming schedule is making fans restless.

On January 5, Joynews24 published an article r.evealing HYBE and Big 3's 2022 plans. In which, YG's artist's promotion plans are of special interest to fans.

The article reads, "Last year, the BLACKPINK members focused on their solo debut and achieved many outstanding achievements, but compared to other agencies, YG's situation is quite stagnant. TREASURE and iKON did not have any comebacks. except for the new songs that were released in January and March respectively. WINNER also couldn't come back because of the member's military service. There is no news about BIGBANG and G-Dragon's comeback."

Because YG artists have been on hiatus for a long time, it is likely that the company will "accelerate" in 2022. Regarding BLACKPINK - the hottest group in YG currently, the article said: "BLACKPINK is preparing. for a world tour and a new full album this year."

The information released by Joynews24 caused the BLACKPINK fan community to "wake up". Fans have been waiting for BLACKPINK's comeback date for over a year. When it was revealed that this comeback consisting of a full-album and a world tour, fans had mixed reactions.

One side believes that BLACKPINK will "play big" in 2022 to make up for the fans after a long time of "disappearing". However, there are also many comments expressing caution and suspicion, because YG has a tradition of using the "Mars" calendar. Before that last year, there was a lot of information from "industry insiders" saying that BLACKPINK would make a comeback in the fourth quarter of 2021, but in the end the group was still in a "missing" state.

In 2021, BLACKPINK's management company only focuses on developing solo careers for the members. Accordingly, BLACKPINK has not really had a complete new group music product. Before that, the girls only released Japanese albums, but most of them were taken from old songs. After that, BLACKPINK released a documentary to celebrate the group's 5th anniversary.

In 2021, BLACKPINK's revenue comes from online concerts, movies, solo activities of Rosé and Lisa, and individual fashion events of 4 members. Although they can't come back yet, the BLACKPINK members have had a brilliant 2021.

Like many other Kpop groups, BLACKPINK signed a 7-year contract with YG Entertainment. The 7-year milestone is a very important time for the fate of groups, because that is the time when the members discuss whether to renew the contract or not.

Fortunately, everyone stayed to maintain the group's activities, worse, some people stayed and some left. The worst case scenario is that all members do not renew their contracts and each pursues their own path. Some Korean netizens guess that the three girls Jisoo, Jennie and Rosé will happily stay and Lisa will be a mystery.

As expected, BLACKPINK's contract will expire in 2023. Although BLACKPINK is currently the top g.irl group, the popularity of the members is very "terrible", but many people think that Lisa will not renew the contract with the group. . A lot of Lisa's only fans support her to go her own way and not need to maintain her career as a member of BLACKPINK.

The first reason why fans supported Lisa to leave the group and become a solo artist is because she still has a lot of potential that YG has not exploited yet. As a foreign idol, Lisa has suffered from unfair treatment at the company, prejudices and discrimination from Korean netizens. Fans believe that if she escapes from YG and Korea, Lisa will still "fly high" and receive more opportunities in her career.

Another reason is that Lisa is more popular internationally than in Korea. The female idol is a K-pop idol with top-notch coverage in China, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines... and is also known in Japan and many European and American countries. Since Lisa worked as a judge on the show "Youth with Friends" in China, the female idol has received a lot of "fat" contracts, the future will explode even more strongly in the mainland if she has the right direction. Meanwhile in Korea, Lisa is less popular than the other 3 members. The concept of g.irl crush and Lisa's appearance are also said to be more international than Korean. Lisa's fandom is also mostly international fans, the fan base in Korea is very small. Therefore, if she develops her career in other places, Lisa will definitely go further than now.

However, this idea has been opposed by many people and most fans believe that BLACKPINK will continue to maintain all 4 members after the 7-year milestone.

Simply because YG has supported the group so well, making BLACKPINK the top g.irl group in the world today, so the girls have no reason to leave. In addition, the four members are all very close like sisters, and have repeatedly expressed their desire to stay together for a long time, so fans are more confident that the BLACKPINK lineup will always have 4 people.

Even BLINKs frankly said that the contract extension is the sole decision of the BLACKPINK members, so they hope outsiders stop talking about this or that.

BLACKPINK was preempted by YG, claiming there was no way to spend hundreds of billions to re-sign the contract Thanh Phúc15:31:21 26/03/2024Recently, YG Entertainment - the management unit of Korea's top music group - just announced that there is no way to spend hundreds of billions to re-sign contracts with 4 girls. The rumors that have been spreading recently are all false.
