A chaotic year for BlackPink

Many incidents in 2023 made BlackPink a hot spot of public opinion. Lisa is the most shocking member for dating a billionaire’s son and stripping at a bar.

BlackPink does not have many new products in 2023 but has achieved significant success. The brightest point is probably the Born Pink tour, which helped the four girls set a record, perform at the world’s largest music festival Coachella in 2023 and be the first Kpop representative to take on the role of main performer.

According to Touring Data, BlackPink’s tour surpassed the revenue mark of 260 million USD from 56 shows, becoming the highest-grossing tour in history for an Asian artist. Besides, BlackPink members have repeatedly “made waves” on social networks about their work and personal lives.

The noisy dating story of the BlackPink quartet

Love news surrounds BlackPink in 2023, many evidences show that Jennie and V (BTS) – a member of the hottest boy band in the world today – are lovers. The couple revealed pictures of them traveling together, walking hand in hand in Paris (France) with many evidences of wearing matching clothes, appearing at the same location. Two idols from two rival groups dating made fans excited. Instead of facing the dating news, both kept silent.

On December 6, Korean media revealed that the two artists officially “went their separate ways” after more than a year of dating and continued to have no action on this issue.

Youngest sister Lisa attracted no less attention when she was rumored to be in love with Frédéric Arnault – CEO of Tag Heuer, son of the world’s second richest man Bernard Arnault, billionaire of fashion group LVMH. Many people believe that Lisa is step by step entering the door of a billionaire family, becoming the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.

The media took many pictures of the two spending time alone, and there was even news that Frédéric Arnault flew a private jet to take his girlfriend to France. During the time when she had no schedule, Lisa often went to France to meet her lover. There is news that both of them have brought the other half home to meet their families. Lisa’s management company said it could not confirm the information even though there is much evidence that she is in a passionate relationship.

Dating news surrounds BlackPink members in 2023.

Eldest sister Jisoo is the last member of the group to debut as a solo singer. The song Flower by the female idol born in 1995 has been trending on social networks for a long time. In Vietnam, Miss Tieu Vy converted the song into Vietnamese lyrics called Fire of Hatred, which many audiences loved to sing along to.

Not only discussed about music, Jisoo caused a “shock” when she was the first BlackPink member to publicly date. In August, Dispatch released photos proving that the female singer and actress Ahn Bo Hyun were in a relationship. Both admitted and hoped for the public’s support.

However, the star couple did not receive sympathetic looks from fans. Many people believe that Ahn Bo Hyun does not deserve the position of the top female idol in Kpop. The star born in 1988 was accused of having personality problems, contempt for women, and exploitation of employees. Ahn Bo Hyun has evidence to exonerate many viewers who still evaluate him negatively.

After two months together, the two officially “went their separate ways”. Like many other star couples who broke up, the reason given was due to their busy schedules, the two gradually drifted apart and decided to end their relationship. They still see each other as normal colleagues after their relationship ended quickly.

Continuously participating in large and small media campaigns of brands, Rosé is busy as an ambassador and model. Love rumors surfaced and affected the female idol.

Much evidence from netizens shows that the main vocalist of BlackPink and actor Kang Dong Won wear matching clothes, coinciding with the check-in location. Both were also present at designer Eva Chow’s party abroad.

YG – The female idol’s management company initially said it “could not confirm” the relationship between Rosé and the actor who is 16 years older than her. Faced with a wave of backlash, the company later announced that the dating news was false and asked the audience to stop spreading false information.

Acting in 18+ movies, performing striptease, suspected banned substances “shocked” public opinion

In the same photo at Eva Chow’s party, Rosé was suspected of using banned substances. YG quickly denied and said it would take drastic legal action against those spreading false information. Many Korean newspapers exonerated the female singer, pointing out that the white tiles on the dining table were actually just shelves and the streaks in the ashtray were marble patterns.

Keywords related to Rosé reached the top on many social networking platforms. Even though she was proven innocent, the incident somewhat damaged her image.

Trying her hand at acting, Jennie had her first role in the Hollywood movie The Idol , but this also started a period of heavy criticism for her. In the film, Jennie plays a supporting role, a dancer – a close friend of the female lead. She has many lines and dance moves that are considered crude and offensive. The performance of the female idol of BlackPink made many people frown when watching.

Jennie was criticized badly for acting in 18+ movies.

Not only that, review sites and critics said that the film’s content was obscene, and critics did not hesitate to call HBO’s work “sleazy with the worst dialogue of the year” or “a frivolous work, ridiculous and 𝑠e𝑥ist.”

More shocking than Jennie is Lisa. She did not go through the management company and secretly agreed to perform at the Crazy Horse strip bar (France). Lisa’s decision to perform at the 18+ club caused chaos in the Kpop fan community. One of the few publicly available images of Lisa shows her wearing 𝑠e𝑥y lingerie with a troupe of female dancers using only her hands to cover her breasts.

This makes public opinion have a negative view of Crazy Horse always shouting about freedom, feminism, women’s liberation… but essentially uses women to make money. Many people believe that Lisa’s strip show influenced young audiences.

The situation became more tense when Lisa ‘s social network account in China “disappeared”, and her image as a brand ambassador in the billion-people market also did not fly. Suspicions about the Thai beauty being secretly murdered are increasing, fans are worried that Lisa will find it difficult to continue working in the Chinese market even though she was previously very popular.

Tired of renewing the contract

Whether or not BlackPink will continue to accompany YG after 7 years of operation has been discussed by the public for a long time, since August, when the four girls ended their contract with the management company.

All four members and YG have not made any clear moves, the company is constantly stagnant, the announcement is still in the negotiation period. YG received criticism, the public said that the company would fall into crisis if it lost its “golden egg-laying hen”, BlackPink. YG shares fluctuated continuously during this time.

It wasn’t until December 6 that fans felt secure when BlackPink continued to sign group activities with YG. However, each member’s individual contract has not yet been decided.
