The queens are back! After over two years of individual triumphs, BLACKPINK is reuniting for a highly anticipated full-group comeback, starting with their ‘DEADLINE’ world tour.
Solo Icons, One Powerful Force š
From RosĆ© dominating the Billboard Hot 100 with “Apartment,” to Jennie claiming “Album of the Year,” Lisa pushing K-pop boundaries, and Jisoo shining as both singer and actressāeach member has proven herself as a global powerhouse. Now, theyāre bringing that solo brilliance back together.
The tour kicks off on July 5 in Goyang, where they will debut a brand-new song on stageātheir first group release since “Born Pink” in 2022.
Why This Comeback Matters š
This isnāt just a reunionāit’s a pivotal moment for K-pop. Experts note that BLACKPINK must now balance their expanded individual fanbases with their group identity.
āTheir group stage needs to merge the distinct solo fandoms with the BLACKPINK brand seamlessly,ā says pop culture critic Kim Heon-sik.
The success of this tour and comeback could set new benchmarks for how K-pop groups evolve after solo fame.
World Tour Highlights š
The ‘DEADLINE’ world tour spans 16 global cities and 31 shows, promising a mix of nostalgia, innovation, and the group’s signature glam. The Goyang concert will set the toneāand possibly, the standard for what’s next in global K-pop.
