Now while the tour has been announced, and tickets undoubtedly are set to fly off the portals, the OG BLACKPINK fans have a bone to pick with YG Entertainment. While news of this long-impending, well-drawn out reunion of course comes as a welcome surprise, the issue here per se is the glaring gap in new music from the girl group as a unit. While Jennie, Lisa and even Rose for that matter have minted pretty formidable global footprints as solo idols, fact still stands that BLACKPINK's last studio album, Born Pink, released back in 2022. Some comments expressing this sentiment read: "YG is the most unserious kpop agency i believe", "WHERE. IS. THE. ALBUM. Stop holding back. Stop testing our patience. Give our girls the comeback they deserve" and "yg ain't ever followed a deadline lmao", to quote a few.
