history

Before the official debut

The creation of Blackpink has been associated with some delays and changes. In 2011, Yang Hyun-suk announced that he would like to create a girl group based on the model of Girls' Generation . The group should be pretty and able to sing, but talent should outweigh looks.

The formation of the girl group was inconsistent. Planned names for the new girl group were "Pink Punk", "Baby Monster" and "Magnum". The candidates for the group were the trainees Jennie Kim, Kim Jisoo, Lalisa Manoban, Park Chaeyoung, Cho Miyeon, Kim Eunbi, Euna Kim, Jinny Park, Jang Hanna and Moon Sua. However, the plans failed because some of the candidates left the group for various reasons. Correspondingly, the number of girls in the group decreased after years of training. Pink Punk became Blackpink and official preparations for Blackpink's debut began in August 2016 with teasers.

2016: Debut and first musical successes

On June 29, 2016, the group was officially introduced by YG Entertainment. After 7 years you are the first YGE girl group after 2NE1 . Their first single, Square One , was released on August 8, 2016. The songs for the single, Whistle and Boombayah, were written and produced by Teddy Park and reached number one and two on the Billboard World Digital Songs chart. So far, this has only been achieved by Psy and Big Bang . The single Whistle debuted at number 1 on the Gaon charts in August 2016 . The band also achieved success on China 's largest music service QQ Music .

On August 14th the quartet had their first appearance in the music program Inkigayo by SBS . On August 27th and September 11th they won at Inkigayo and at 13 days they are the girl group that won a music program in a very short time after their debut.

On November 1, 2016, their second single Square Two with the lead singles Playing with Fire and Stay was released . The songs were produced by Teddy Park, R.Tee, and Seo Won Jin. With Playing with Fire they again reached first place on the Billboard World Digital Songs Charts. In South Korea, Playing With Fire reached number three and Stay number ten.

Black Pink won several newcomer awards in major Korean music award shows within the first five months. Billboard also named Black Pink "one of the best new K-pop groups of 2016".

2017: As If It's Your Last and debut in Japan

In January 2017, it was announced on the official Instagram account that their fans were called BLINK . In the summer of 2017, Black Pink announced appearances in Japan and the release of an EP on August 8th.

If you press the button again, the reaction light function is activated and the light stick lights up, reacting to the bass in the environment. In addition, the stick can make a squeaking sound as soon as this function is activated and you hit something with the hammer.
