Rumors are circulating within the K-pop community regarding the future of Blackpink, one of the genre's most prominent girl groups, as the members deliberate over their contracts with YG Entertainment, their agency.
News outlet News1 reported on Monday that Jennie and Jisoo, two members of Blackpink, have established their own agencies, potentially to kickstart their solo careers. While pursuing solo endeavors, they are expected to continue their commitments as Blackpink members under YG Entertainment.
However, another report from Sports Seoul four days earlier suggested that only member Rosé had opted to renew her contract, hinting that Jennie, Jisoo, and Lisa might be parting ways with YG Entertainment.
The agency has remained tight-lipped, neither confirming nor denying these reports, stating that no decisions have been made regarding Blackpink's future activities.
The uncertainty surrounding Blackpink's contract renewals has sent ripples across the industry, affecting YG Entertainment's stock prices. The potential departure of key members threatens to disrupt the agency's substantial growth trajectory.
Although leaving the agency doesn't necessarily spell the end of the group, keeping all members united under the Blackpink name might prove challenging if they are managed by different companies. The suspense lingers as fans and the industry wait for official announcements regarding Blackpink's fate.
