Rumors on Blackpink Contracts Put to Rest?

Towards the end of November, the South Korean media outlet Munhwa Ilbo reported that there were no plans for Blackpink members to extend their exclusive individual contracts with YG Entertainment. Instead, the members were only expected to continue their group activities as Blackpink under the label.

"Exclusive contracts between each member and YG Entertainment were not signed. In the future, they plan to carry out individual activities and come together only for Blackpink activities," Munhwa Ilbo previously reported.

The stock value of YG Entertainment has faced declines whenever there was speculation in the South Korean media suggesting that Blackpink members might choose not to proceed with the renewal of their contracts with the agency.

But these uncertainties may be put to rest with the reports that the girl group would continue to be represented by the company.

Blackpink recently achieved a significant milestone when they became the first K-pop group and non-British musicians to be honored with Member of the Order of the British Empire medals by British monarch King Charles III on November 22. 

This recognition was bestowed in acknowledgment of Blackpink's advocacy efforts at the COP26 climate talks held in Glasgow in 2021.
