Since the end of 2023, Blackpink has been on hiatus from group activities, and the members have gone solo. While Jennie and Lisa have been active in the fashion industry, releasing some music products or collaborating with singers, Jisoo and Rose have been quiet.
Korean media commented that the end of the year is the golden time for Blackpink to increase individual activities, creating momentum for the whole group to reunite in 2025.
Currently, all four members have announced new projects. In recent days, Rose's comeback announcement has attracted great attention.
Rose is the only member of Blackpink who did not form her own label after her contract with YG Entertainment expired. She became an exclusive artist under The Black Label, a company run by producer Teddy - the man behind many of Blackpink's hits.
This December, the female idol will release a new album called “Rosie” with 12 self-composed songs. Before that, Rose almost froze her activities, rarely updating her personal page.
As for Jisoo, she focuses on acting and has no information related to music projects.
In early September, Korean media reported that Jisoo would star alongside actor Seo In Guk in the romantic drama “Monthly Boyfriends”.
In early 2025, Jisoo is also preparing to release two other film projects, "Newtopia" with Park Jung Min and "Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint" with Lee Min Ho, Ahn Hyo Seop...
Over the past year, Jennie has been actively working in both fashion and music. The female idol will return with a new single called Mantra with many unique looks.
Of the 4 members, Lisa is the most active. She continuously releases many new music products such as: Rockstar, New Woman, Moonlit Floor... and participates in many fashion events. Recently, the Thai beauty broke the record when she became the first Kpop Idol to win 2 VMAs awards for the category "Best Kpop".
Lisa was also invited to perform at major international stages such as America's largest annual music festival, Global Citizen Festival 2024, or Victoria's Secret.
Next month, the female idol will have her first solo tour in her career, with destinations in Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and China.
In the film industry, Lisa appeared in the series that won 15 Emmy Awards and 2 Golden Globe Awards - “The White Lotus”. Many people are looking forward to her performance in this field.
Previously, YG Entertainment's sparse and limited schedule somewhat limited the artists' activities. Blackpink could only come back once a year, sometimes once every two years.
