This achievement once again affirms the global position and influence beyond the music field of the four members Lisa, Jennie, Rose and Jisoo.
According to Fortune, Hallyu - the wave of Korean culture is spreading strongly globally, and Blackpink is the most typical representative of this phenomenon. Since their debut in 2016, the group has continuously broken a series of records: becoming the first Korean group to sell more than two million domestic albums, the first group to top the Billboard 200 chart, and the owner of the tour with the highest revenue in history for an Asian female artist.
Fortune believes that Blackpink is not only a music icon but also a global cultural strength, contributing to raising Korea's influence on the international entertainment map. Unique music style, classy fashion images and the ability to connect with a multinational audience have helped the group overcome all language barriers.
From major music festivals like Coachella to brand ambassadors for the world's leading fashion houses, Blackpink has proven its stature as inspirational women, leading the trend and shaping the new era of Asian music.
