Did Jisoo spoil the BLACKPINK members renewing their contracts?

AKP STAFF

Over the past year, fans and the media have been waiting for news about BLACKPINK's contract renewal with YG Entertainment.

Making their debut on August 8, 2016, the girls officially celebrated their 7th anniversary and also the end of their initial contract with their label. As much as they are the biggest K-pop girl group in the industry, all attention has been gathered on them regarding their future activities.

Customarily, news of idol groups' contract renewals is made public before the anniversary date comes. However, there have not been any updates about BLACKPINK's contract renewal, bringing concerns to many.

Then on August 8, Jisoo logged onto Weverse to chat with fans and celebrate the 7th anniversary.

During the Weverse live, Jisoo shared an exciting piece of potential spoiler news that hinted all members of BLACKPINK had renewed their contracts. She shared "We Are One" and that the members are looking forward next year to the 8th anniversary.

Fans and netizens quickly gathered in an online community to share their excitement. They commented, "She was worried about her fans so she spoiled the Seoul encore concert and even the contract renewal," "I bet you all the haters are crying right now," "I hope they make comebacks often after they renew their contracts," "I think it's smart for the members to stay with BLACKPINK," "I hope they make a comeback soon," "I want them to promote even 10 years later," and "I hope YG doesn't keep them in the back like Big Bang."

That could mean anything, literally every group that doesn't renew says they will always be 'x' group forever.

I’m not going to buy too much into Jisoo’s comments. I’ll be stressed until contract renewals for all the members are formally announced.
