Jennie Kim hints on Blackpink's upcoming comeback
MANILA, Philippines — K-pop girl group Blackpink is preparing for a comeback, as spilled by the group's main rapper Jennie Kim.
Jennie revealed the news during an appearance on the Korean variety show "The Game Caterers 2."
"BLACKPINK is also making a comeback soon. I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but since I'm the only one here, I'll just say it. Please look forward to it," she said.
While YG Entertainment is yet to make an official announcement, fans have been on stalker mode to know when the quartet's new music is coming. While filming on Instagram Live from YG's headquarters last week, Blackpink's labelmate, "DUMB DUMB" singer Somi, accidentally walked into a studio playing an unreleased song, according to NME Magazine.
As per NME, the singer on the track sounded a lot like Jennie, at least according to die-hard BLINKs (BLACKPINK's fans). While chatter around the leak is all speculation, the announcement from Jennie confirmed that new music is on the way.
The K-pop quartet has become the biggest girl group in the world in the six years since their debut, racking up six videos with over a billion views on YouTube. Since their last group comeback in 2020's "The Album," Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa have also been taking over the fashion world as ambassadors for the luxury houses Dior, Chanel, Saint Laurent, and Celine, respectively. Rosé and Lisa have also made their solo debuts, with their "R" and "LALISA" single albums.
