The group has been on a successful run since releasing “Born Pink,” with hit singles like “Shut Down,” “Pink Venom,” and their massive world tour. BLACKPINK celebrated their 9th debut anniversary earlier this year, and despite global schedules, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa continue to shine individually through their solo careers.
For Filipino Blinks, moments like this remind them why BLACKPINK remains not only a global powerhouse — but also a group with a genuine connection to the Philippines.
