The powerhouse girl group BLACKPINK is gearing up for a massive return! YG Entertainment recently unveiled plans to refocus its efforts on music by dissolving its actor-management branch and directing more resources toward key artists—particularly BLACKPINK. These comeback rumors date back to 2024, when the company initially teased its plans of a new album and tour for the girl group.

While Jisoo, Jennie, and Lisa prep their forthcoming solo albums, Rosé is riding high on the success of her debut release, “rosie.” But that doesn’t mean the girls are forgetting their original squad. According to a South Korean media outlet, the four members will reunite for a highly anticipated group project in May 2025, marking their first joint release since their second album, “BORN PINK.”

Beyond the buzz about new music, YG Entertainment’s corporate reboot is setting the stage for an expanded in-house production team. They’ve folded YGX into their Global Training Center and beefed up their production staff from 10 to 50. This strategic switch-up shows the agency’s commitment to reclaiming its crown, with BLACKPINK at the pinnacle of the K-pop scene.
