Blackpink Members End Individual Contracts With YG Entertainment
After much speculation about the K-pop girl group breaking up, YG Entertainment announced that Blackpink renewed their contract. The group had first signed with YG in 2016 and have decided to continue after the end of their seven-year contract.
However, all the Blackpink members have announced that they will not continue their contracts for individual activities with the company. YG Entertainment is only partnered for group activities of Blackpink with the new contract.
Lisa (Lalisa Manobal), Jisoo (Kim Ji-soo), Jennie (Kim Jennie) and Rosé (Roseanne Park) have all agreed not to proceed with the additional individual contracts.
Blackpink’s Jisoo signed a contract with her brother’s agency to pursue solo activities. She will be working under the label “Blissoo”, a subsidiary of the company Biomom, Inc. While Biomom is primarily known for food products, they are committed to growing their entertainment division by recruiting Jisoo.
