After a two-year-long break, Blackpink is finally gearing up for a comeback! Everyone’s favorite K-pop girl group will soon share their second studio album Born Pink with the world and here’s everything you should know about this highly-anticipated record before its release.

Release Date

Last month, Blackpink’s label YG Entertainment announced “a lot of Blackpink-esque music has been prepared over a long period of time”, hinting at the release of the band’s new album. They later announced that the LP titled Born Pink will hit the shelves in September, but the official release date remains a mystery.

World Tour

Blackpink will promote their new album by embarking on a world tour in October. Official dates haven’t been announced, but YG Entertainment described it as “the largest world tour in the history of a K-pop girl group”.

Tracklist

“Ready for Love” has been released as the first promo single from Born Pink, and the K-pop group joined forces with battle royale video game PUBG Mobile for the animated music video.  This song marks the band’s first release since their 2020 record The Album. They’re expected to release another single later this month before dropping the full album in September.
