According to Spotify's announcement, Jisoo's (Blackpink) newly released song "Earthquake" debuted at No. 110 on the Spotify global chart on February 14 with 1,878,424 streams.
A day later (February 15), Earthquake dropped to 111th place with 1,627,284 streams.
With these numbers, Jisoo is currently the member with the lowest international debut solo song in the group Blackpink, since the 4 female idols left YG Entertainment (late 2023).
Lisa released Rockstar on Spotify globally with 5.89 million streams (ranked 8), New Woman (combined with Rosalia) reached 6 million streams (ranked 4), Moonlit Floor reached 4.48 million streams (ranked 9), and most recently Born again (combined with Doja Cat, Raye) reached 6.26 million streams (ranked 6).
Jennie released Mantra on Spotify globally with 5.24 million streams (ranked 5), Love Hangover (featuring Dominic Fike) reached 2.88 million streams (ranked 30th).
Meanwhile, Rose's Bruno Mars collaboration hit - "APT." has the highest debut achievement in the Blackpink group with 6.85 million streams (ranked 3). The song "Number one girl" was released with 3.07 million streams (ranked 31st), "Toxic till the end" reached 3.83 million streams (ranked 24,).
Jisoo's mini album "Amortage" only reached 5.25 million streams on the first day of release on Spotify. This achievement is far behind Rose with the album "rosie" reaching 28.07 million streams - setting a record for the album by a female Kpop solo artist with the biggest debut in the history of the Spotify chart.
Previously, Jisoo's international achievements were already modest compared to Lisa, Jennie and Rose. However, the failure of Earthquake to reach the 2 million stream mark for release was disappointing.
Although Jisoo released the song on the same day of the holiday and had many promotional activities before returning to the music scene.
Jisoo's mini album "Amortage" includes 4 songs "Earthquake", "Tears", "Your Love", "Hugs & Kisses", in which "Earthquake" is the title track released as MV on YouTube. Jisoo participated in writing the lyrics for all songs in this mini album.
Jisoo's achievements on the Korean charts were also not as expected. In the first hour, Earthquake only took 73rd place on the Bugs chart and 242nd place on Genie, unable to enter the Melon Top 100 - the top chart in the country.
As of 9:00 a.m. on February 17, Earthquake is currently ranked 73rd on Melon Top 100, 39th on Genie, 12th on Bugs, and 87th on Flo.
On forums, Jisoo's albums are considered old, boring and her singing and technique are also criticized. Many opinions said that Jisoo's release of the album "Amortage" was too hasty and lacked investment.
