This exciting announcement shook the K-Pop fandom world, making fans speculate about the new activities the group would be presenting the following month. BLACKPINK has already proved their undeniable ability to blow their fans over with unique ideas, so there is a lot to anticipate from the group in their new era. We summarized the biggest fan desires of the upcoming comeback - here is what BLINKs are most thrilled about:
1. Variety of music styles
Ballads, rap, rock, pop - BLACKPINK has done it all. The group has smashed various music genres, which eventually made up for a diverse portfolio of unmatched hits. Thanks to that, each of the members was able to present her individual talents and shine with her charms. Moreover, the solo albums of Jennie, Lisa, and Rosé made fans realize that the 3 vocalists are full of surprises. BLINKs are waiting in suspense to stream the new records and hoping to hear more of BLACKPINKS’ vocal and melodic diversity.
2. New MV concepts
New music requires also fresh visual concepts for the videos. BLINKs widely praised their biases for the novel execution of their previous era - in the videos for ‘Lovesick Girls’ and ‘How You Like That’ the group presented a rock, edgy style, which emphasized the group’s position as the most powerful and iconic in the K-Pop female industry. Moreover, in their ‘Ice Cream’ video they surprised everyone by shifting to a sweet, girlie vibe, which made fans fall in love with their versatility. Throughout the years BLACKPINK unveiled many faces of K-Pop in their MVs, which is one of the many reasons why they still prevail as the most iconic group. With their upcoming August comeback, fans can’t help but wonder how the artists will change this area of the K-Pop scene once again.
3. Global tour
YG Entertainment has already announced that with the new comeback BLACKPINK will also come back on the road to deliver unforgettable experiences for their international fans. Now what fans are anticipating is the full list of dates and locations where the artists will perform. Besides the possibility to admire live vocals, concert tours involve stage design, costumes, choreographies, and much more, which make up for an inimitable atmosphere that BLINKs already can’t wait to live through.
4. International collabs
As the most popular female K-Pop group, BLACKPINK collaborated with major international artists such as Dua Lipa or Selena Gomez. This allowed not only for great bops but also new interactions. Fans loved to see the mix of international concepts and K-Pop, which also made K-Pop-averse listeners come round to join the BLINKs fandom and proved the group’s dominance to the global audience. Thus BLACKPINK’s fans cannot wait for unexpected tunes and international friendships, that the girls will make.
5. TV appearances
An important part of a comeback are also TV appearances - this includes variety shows, interviews, comeback stages, and more. BLINKs are longing to see the group’s promotional activities both national and overseas. It’s common knowledge that BLACKPINK is bound to break records, but their participation in various programs helps to further escalate their success and bring newcomers into the fandom.
6. New merch
Last, but not least - fan merch. K-Pop fans are especially enthusiastic about new clothing and accessories from their biases. BLACKPINK made her fans eager to splurge on their incredible original designs and also collaborated with H&M on a line that included both concert-ready and casual pieces. With the upcoming comeback, it would be hard not to start visualizing ourselves in new trendy outfits or collecting cute photo cards. Are you also getting your coins ready for the new era?
