BTS is about to expire, BLACKPINK is "proclaimed king" of Kpop, the "little sister" group that just debuted was also kicked out for one reason.

Soon, Jungkook, Jimin, V and RM (BTS) will be the next 4 members to enlist. It is expected that by 2025, BTS will be able to work as a group again. Thus, during this time, BLACKPINK may become the "hegemon" of Kpop.

On the morning of November 22, Big Hit Music - the management company of BTS announced the military service of 4 members Jungkook, Jimin, V and RM. Group BTS plans to suspend entertainment activities until 2025 after confirmation from the company that 4 members Jungkook, Jimin, V and RM will enlist in the army in the near future. They followed Jin who enlisted in the army in December 2022, J-Hope (April 2023) and Suga (September 2023).

Before BTS joined the army, they and BLACKPINK were the two "hegemonic" Kpop in the field of b.oy groups and g.irl groups. Although there have been many other g.irl groups that have risen, no one has been able to overcome BLACKPINK's huge influence in the international market.

Not only have they not been able to enter the Billboard H.ot 100 as many times as BLACKPINK did, other g.irl groups have also not been able to have as much buzz and recognition as the 4 YG girls in terms of brand ambassadors and event participation.

According to The Korea Times, BLACKPINK recently won the Order of Merit for contributions in the field of arts from King Charles III, on the occasion of President Yoon Suk Yeol's state visit to the UK.

During a special investiture ceremony at Buckingham Palace, the king awarded the g.irl group the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) in recognition of the K-pop group's role in spreading the message of sustainability. environment to a global audience.

A week ago, BLACKPINK achieved an important milestone in their career when they won the Top Kpop Touring Artist category, surpassing fellow nominees SUGA from BTS and TWICE at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards.

This win marks them as the first g.irl group to win at the BBMAs since Destiny's C.hild in 2005 and is the group's next notable achievement in the global music industry. Therefore, with BTS's absence for 2 years, if no group can create a miracle in the international market and BLACKPINK still maintains group activities, they will become the hegemon of Kpop.

After returning to Korea from an honorable business trip to the UK, the 3 BLACKPINK members all have their own days off and schedules. Jennie attended W magazine's famous event - Love Your W, appearing heavily on social networks with extremely luxurious images. Jisoo, besides updating social media about the image of receiving the medal in England, has not made any new moves yet. Meanwhile, the youngest sister Lisa has not returned to Korea yet. Recently, fans caught her in Paris.

Rosé is the most active person on social networks. On the night of November 26, main vocalist BLACKPINK opened a livestream to interact and sing with fans right before the debut MV BABYMONSTER aired. She is also diligently promoting her Christmas photo series taken with her dog Hank.

However, BLACKPINK made no move to mention that BABYMONSTER had officially "debuted" with their debut MV Batter Up . In the past, BLACKPINK often supported fellow artists such as Somi, BIGBANG senior, Taeyang or Loren (The Black Label) by sharing products on Instagram stories. The fact that BLACKPINK was "silent" before the debut of their younger sister made the rumors about leaving YG stir.

After the MV Batter Up was posted on platforms, contrary to expectations, the public expressed disappointment and gave many comments on YG's lack of explosive rookie debut. The image and concept of MV Batter Up even caused controversy because it looked like a patchwork version of BLACKPINK - 2NE1. Knet said that YG did not take care of the new g.irl group at all, preparing products hastily and superficially. On forums there is also information spreading that YG does not have a visual director for this project.

BLACKPINK's global success is such a big shadow that BABYMONSTER cannot escape comparison. Although silent, BLACKPINK is still viral, taking over social networks even though this is the time when BABYMONSTER needs YG's attention to promote more than ever.
