With each BLACKPINK (블랙핑크) member having their own unique personality and charisma, it’s no surprise that their individual solo careers have been met with widespread success. Whether debuting as solo singers or exploring acting, fans are always eager for more content from each of the four members.
Following Lisa’s (리사) recent comeback with her new track “New Woman,” featuring Spanish singer Rosalía, BLINKs are now buzzing with questions about what the other three members have in store. Here’s what we know so far:
Jennie (김제니)
Following her last solo release of “You & Me” in 2023, Jennie signed with Columbia Records, a prominent American label under Sony Music Entertainment. Recently, her management stirred excitement by teasing a comeback with a 12-hour countdown on their newly launched official website. BLINKs were thrilled by the surprise, as many had expected her comeback to drop later in October, as previously confirmed by OA Entertainment.
Jisoo (김지수)
While fans are getting fed with other members’ solo singer careers, Jisoo on the other hand, is rumoured to make her return as an actress. Earlier this month, it was reported that the 29-year-old idol, along with renowned actor Seo In Guk (서인국), has been offered a role in an upcoming drama “Monthly Boyfriend,” about a world where people can subscribe to romantic partners and the virtual connection transfers to real life. Although there are no confirmed reports yet, people are eagerly looking forward to the possible chemistry between the two casts.
Jisoo’s management label, BLISSOO, responded to the recent rumours by stating, “She is currently considering the offer.” After her first lead role in the 2021 drama “Snowdrop,” Jisoo recently completed filming for the highly anticipated web novel adaptation “Omniscient Reader,” where she stars alongside Lee Min Ho (이민호) and Ahn Hyo Seop (안효섭). Additionally, the “Flower” singer is awaiting the release of her upcoming series “Influenza,” a thrilling action-packed zombie drama.
Rosé (로제)
Rosé, the BLACKPINK member with the fewest updates on her solo career, has left fans curious about what’s next. Earlier this month, the “On The Ground” singer was spotted in Los Angeles, California, spending time with friends. Speculation arose that her stay in LA was linked to her upcoming, yet-to-be-announced album. While no official news about her comeback has been released, she has personally confirmed that new music is on the way, teasing fans that it will drop soon.
