The girls group BLACKPINK, which enjoys high popularity worldwide, has become a focal point whether its members will renew their contracts with YG Entertainment. It was previously reported that only Rosé among the four members would renew her contract, and the other three members would each sign with other companies. Recently, the actions of YG Entertainment towards its members have also sparked heated discussions among netizens.
By the end of this month, member Lisa will be appearing in Paris's "Crazy Horse Show", making her the first KPOP idol to perform in this show. Surprisingly, Lisa was spotted traveling abroad alone without any staff or manager, which shocked many people.
Lisa did not inform the media and fans about her departure on that day, and she left the country quietly all by herself. After arriving in Paris, Lisa had only a few bodyguards with her, a stark contrast to her past trips accompanied by a large number of staff members.
Currently, BLACKPINK is discussing contract renewal with YG Entertainment. Although there have been many different reports, YG Entertainment has not given a definite answer. Under such circumstances, fans are making various speculations about Lisa traveling abroad alone without staff and manager, thinking that pressure is being put on Lisa.
Yesterday, Korean media reported that Jennie and Jisoo will be setting up their own project companies to carry out individual activities, and discussions are also underway with YG Entertainment about BLACKPINK's activities. In a rare move, YG Entertainment immediately stated that "it is not yet confirmed and is under discussion."
BLACKPINK started a world tour in October that lasted over a year. They performed in 34 cities with 66 shows, attracting approximately 1.8 million spectators. They have enormous popularity worldwide, leading the global KPOP wave.
After making their debut in 2016, BLACKPINK celebrated their 7th anniversary last month. At the same time, they are discussing the issue of contract renewal, so whether BLACKPINK will continue to renew their contract with YG Entertainment is being closely watched by everyone.
