The Born Pink tour, described as the 'largest world tour in the history of a K-pop girl group' at the time, began on their home turf of Seoul, South Korea, and made stops in U.S. cities including Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles before concluding in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2023. Following the global tour, Blackpink released concert film Blackpink World Tour [Born Pink] on July 31.
Since the group wrapped their tour and released 2023 single 'The Girls,' Blackpink members have launched individual projects. For starters, Rosé released her debut album on Dec. 6, a 12-track project that showcases her 'chameleonic personality and straightforwardly winsome vocals,' per a Rolling Stone review. On the heels of Rosé's album, Lisa's debut album Alter Ego is expected to arrive at the end of the month. Lisa has since released 'New Woman' with Rosalía, 'Rockstar,' and 'Moonlit Floor (Kiss Me),' with 'Born Again' featuring Raye and Doja Cat heading to music streamers on Friday.
Jisoo and Jennie have also shared projects, with Jisoo's mini album Amortage, and Jennie's debut album Ruby announcement last month. Jennie will couple her latest project with The Ruby Experience, a three-city show run with performances by Kali Uchis, Dua Lipa, and Doechii.

‘Squid Game 2' Cast on Connecting With Fans and Relating to Their Characters: ‘Thanos Isn't A Villain, But He Is A Man-Child'
'Squid Game' creator, director and writer Hwang Dong-hyuk joined production designer Chae Kyoung-sun, editor Nam Na-yeong and director of photography Kim Ji-yong and members of the 'Squid Game 2' cast (Lee Jung-jae, Kang Ae-shim, Park Sung-hoon, Lee Byung-hun and Choi Seung-hyun) for a panel and screening on Friday night that was part of Netflix's FYSEE LA series. When it came to choosing which seemingly-innocent schoolyard games would become death traps in the second installment of his dystopian black comedy, Hwang says he looked for challenges that would force players to vote en masse. More from Variety Pablo Larraín to Direct Netflix Domestic Horror Miniseries 'My Sad Dead,' From Fabula and 'The Eternaut's' K&S Films (EXCLUSIVE) 'Lincoln Lawyer' Season 4 Casts Cobie Smulders (EXCLUSIVE) 'Nobody Wants This' Season 2 Sets October Release Date on Netflix 'An important theme I wanted to explore in the second season was the notion of elections,' said Hwang. 'So many free democratic countries around the world are choosing their leaders, and therefore their futures, through the act of casting a vote.' 'Elections exist to provide the right direction for society to head in, but as we all see, it's actually leading people to even further division and hostility – almost the opposite way of what it was originally intended to do. I really wanted to poke at the theme of majority rule in elections within the liberal democratic world, and pose the question: can [democracy] truly bring us down the right path? Is it capable of allowing us to choose the right leaders?' For Park Sung-hoon, who plays Cho Hyun-ju (a special forces agent ostracized by her peers when she came out as a transgender woman) joining the cast of 'Squid Game 2' allowed him to form a deeper bond with an understanding of the LGBTQ+. community. '[The fans] have given me so much support and love despite me being a cisgender actor playing a transgender character,' said Sung-hoon. 'I think the world is becoming a better place for the LGBTQ+ community, but prejudices and biases still exist, and Geum-ja is a character who represents that kind of attitude towards the community.' 'But later on in the show, Geum-ja warms up to her, she embraces her as one of her friends and family. I hope the viewers feel the same way about Hyun-ju, warming up to her as family. In season three, we go through a lot together, so we develop an even stronger bond.' Sung-hoon wasn't the only newcomer impacted by the show's writing – Choi Seung-hyun, (a rapper and former member of the K-pop group BIGBANG) says understanding the psychology of his character Thanos helped him reflect on his own past. 'Thanos and I have some common ground, as a rapper who went out second in a competition show and had drug issues,' Seung-hyun explained. 'While you might think of me as a successful rapper, I also had my failures, so I had to come face-to-face with my past mistakes when I was looking at Thanos. It took a lot of courage for me to take on this role, but Director Hwang put so much trust in me. 'I don't think Thanos is a villain, but he is a man-child,' Seung-hyun continued. 'Playing this character, it was an opportunity for me to self-reflect on my past and think about what I've done wrong. Through 'Squid Game,' and Thanos, I feel like I'm ready to move on to a new chapter of my life. I learned so much from him.' The day after the FYC event, the 'Squid Game' stars walked the red carpet, where Lee Jung-jae told Variety he still wants to see Leonardo DiCaprio on the show. Watch the video below to hear what he had to say.

Jonathan Joss, ‘King of the Hill' Voice Actor, Fatally Shot at 59
Jonathan Joss, best known as the voice actor behind King of the Hill's John Redcorn, died after being fatally shot at the age of 59, according to police. During a dispute, Joss was shot and killed by a neighbor on Sunday night in San Antonio, Texas, said authorities. According to The New York Times, the neighbor was identified by investigators as Sigfredo Ceja Alvarez, who was taken into custody and charged with murder. More from Rolling Stone Valerie Mahaffey, 'Northern Exposure' and 'Desperate Housewives' Actress, Dead at 71 Alf Clausen, Longtime 'The Simpsons' Composer, Dead at 84 James Lowe, Lead Singer of Psychedelic Band the Electric Prunes, Dead at 82 According to a statement shared on Joss' Facebook account by his husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, the couple had returned to the site of their former home, which had been damaged in a fire, to check on their mail. They were approached by a man who began yelling homophobic slurs and fired his gun, said de Gonzales. 'Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone,' said de Gonzales. 'We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.' Joss and de Gonzales married earlier this year on Valentine's Day. In a text message to The Associated Press, de Gonzales wrote, 'He was murdered.' Joss was found near the street by officers, and paramedics pronounced him dead when they arrived, according to The Times. The San Antonio Police Department did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone's request for comment. Joss was best known for his distinct voice playing Redcorn, a Native American character on King of the Hill, which ran for 13 seasons from 1997 to 2008. The series will return to the small screen 15 years after it ended its original run and Hulu will debut Season 14 of King of the Hill in August. It's unclear if Joss will be featured in the revival. A rep for Mike Judge did not immediately return Rolling Stone's request for comment. Joss also featured in a recurring role on the popular television show Parks and Recreation as Chief Ken Hotate. He has also appeared in Tulsa King, Ray Donovan, True Grit, and The Magnificent Seven. Before his death, Joss posted a video on Instagram as he shared his excitement about the beloved series' return, saying that the 'reboot is up and moving' and invited fans to meet him at a comic shop in Austin, Texas, and take photos for free. When walking around the shop and discussing his character in the new series (his role in the next season has not yet been confirmed), Joss mused about the idea of 'expiration dates.' 'We have them, man, life and death. Sometimes we have a talent, a desire. Sometimes you get put on a shelf,' he said. 'If you're canned and you put on the shelf, expiration date is like forever. Be a can of whoop ass when you get on that shelf. Think about moving forward. Think about being a can with an amazing expiration date. So, even if they put you on the shelf, man, when you come out of that can, you're fresh.'
