SEVENTEEN’s Mingyu had a fanboy moment after attending BLACKPINK’s opening night of the DEADLINE World Tour on July 5, 2025, at Goyang Stadium in South Korea. Posting on Weverse the next day, he gushed, “I enjoyed BLACKPINK’s concert!! I want to have a concert too… I miss you… CARATs.”
But this wasn’t just any concert; it marked BLACKPINK’s first full performance together in nearly two years, since September 17, 2023, and wow, did they deliver! With jaw-dropping visuals to bold solo stages, the girls proved once again why they’re K-pop royalty. Plus, fans got a juicy surprise: the live debut of their brand-new track “JUMP”, their first release since 2023’s The Girls. As expected, the crowd lost it. And with Milan, New York, and Tokyo up next, the global takeover is just beginning.
Meanwhile, Mingyu and the rest of SEVENTEEN are celebrating their 10th anniversary with the album “Happy Burstday,” which dropped on May 26, 2025. It’s a 16-track collection of bops<, featuring solo songs from all 13 members and collabs with none other than Pharrell Williams and Timbaland. But even with that stacked résumé, Mingyu still made time to cheer for his fellow idols.
