BLACKPINK reunites as full group after almost 1 year ahead of DEADLINE World Tour amid fans' appeal for reform
Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa are all ready to take over your screens and hearts with their chart-topping numbers once again! Gearing up for their DEADLINE World Tour, the girls of BLACKPINK shared a much-awaited update with their fans. Jisoo shared a new story on her Instagram with her 79.3 million followers of a flower shape made by the quartet, seemingly in their practice room. The other members soon reshared the story on their own handles and tagged each other as well as their team account, resting any doubt that the fans may have about their excitement.
The last time the four singers were seen together was for BLACKPINK's 8th debut anniversary last year in August. It may not be a lot, but stars are slowly raising the temperature in the room with their hints at the upcoming DEADLINE tour shows. A simple look at their hands, and the BLINKs were already celebrating. With the amount of social media posts pouring in already, we don't think it will take much time for the group to trend all over the internet again!
The flowery update from the group may as well be a hint, and we'll never know until the concerts officially begin.
Previously, Lisa posted on the fan communication platform Bubble, where she updated her fans with the girls' practising status. She confirmed that they were working very hard to bring a good show to the fans and were excited to see them. However, her update was met with criticism from netizens who saw this as a last-minute attempt to save the tour. Multiple fan unions have called out YG Entertainment, claiming shabby promotions, including a lack of teaser content, good quality and well-designed merchandise, updates, and more.
BLACKPINK's Tour Plan
It is known that the DEADLINE World Tour will begin on July 5 this year with a concert at the Goyang Stadium in South Korea and will be followed by stops across the world in North America, Europe, and Asia. So far, 31 shows have been announced, with the tour culminating in Hong Kong on January 25, 2026.
BLACKPINK is also set to debut a new song during its South Korean concert, for which the fans are also demanding a separate release on July 4.

Also Read: Viral Video: Digital Creator Shares Similarities Between Indian And South Korean Foods Here Are 7 Korean Drinks You Must Try During Summer: 1. Sikhye (Sweet Rice Drink) This traditional Korean drink is made with fermented malt water and cooked rice. Lightly sweet with floating grains of rice, sikhye is not only refreshing but also helps with digestion. It is commonly served cold after meals and is especially popular during summer festivals. 2. Bokbunja Juice (Black Raspberry Juice) Made from fermented Korean black raspberries, bokbunja juice is rich in antioxidants and has a deep, fruity flavour.

The combination of milk and banana flavour works like magic, especially when the milk is chilled. Banana milk is usually sold in cute bottles, making it a favourite among kids. Not just kids, even adults enjoy this summer drink quite a lot. 4. Korean Strawberry Milk Another Korean summer drink that deserves your attention is this Korean strawberry milk. What sets this Korean recipe apart from the rest is that it uses only fresh strawberries and no added colour or artificial flavour. It doesn't look all pink like a typical strawberry milkshake. Instead, you can see white milk on top with swirls of strawberry chunks at the bottom. Photo Credit: Unsplash 5. Subak Hwachae (Watermelon Punch) This colorful drink is a staple of summer in many Korean households. Made with chunks of watermelon, sweet melon, soda or milk, and a few ice cubes, subak hwachae is part punch and part dessert. It is fun to serve at gatherings and makes a hydrating treat during hot afternoons. 6. Citron Tea (Yuja Cha) Yuja cha is made from yuja fruit, a citrus that tastes like a mix of lemon and mandarin. The tea is usually prepared using yuja marmalade mixed with water. It is typically served hot in winter, but it tastes just as delicious when poured over ice in summer. Do give it a try!
