In the throbbing heartbeat of the K-pop scene, hints and speculations often drive the narrative.
Amidst this, a possible contract renewal for BLACKPINK, the globally acclaimed girl band, has emerged as a topic of intense discussion.
The suspense heightened during a recent concert when Rosé, a member of the quartet, subtly suggested that the group might extend their journey with YG Entertainment.
Rosé's Subtle Reveal

With a string of hit songs like "Boombayah," "Whistle," "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du," and "Kill This Love," BLACKPINK has not only taken the world by storm but also broken numerous records.
