It’s been a while since BLACKPINK has made a public appearance as a whole group.
The last time all four members – Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa – were seen together was at the Korean state banquet in Buckingham Palace in November, following the conclusion of their world tour.
BLINKs miss seeing BLACKPINK together as a group, since they’ve been focusing on solo projects together and rarely appear together.
There is hope on the horizon as the group is expected to reunite at the Billboard Korea launch event this month.
Billboard Korea is set to launch next month and the promotional activities began in April, with the CEO of Billboard Mike Van visiting South Korea.
The ‘Billboard K-Pop Artist 100′ list features 16 top K-pop teams, led by BTS’ Jungkook in first place, followed by BTS, Stray Kids, FIFTY FIFTY, NewJeans, TXT, SEVENTEEN, ATEEZ, ENHYPEN, TWICE, BLACKPINK, LE SSERAFIM, aespa, NCT 127, NCT DREAM, ITZY, and (G)I-DLE.
The upcoming launch event for ‘Billboard Korea’ in May will bring together industry heavyweights, including Mike Van, CEO of Billboard headquarters, and prominent artists.
All the artists featured in the list of Billboard K-pop Artists 100 are invited to the event.
Fans are speculating whether BLACKPINK will attend as a group, now that all members have returned to Korea.
