As BLACKPINK’s mega DEADLINE World Tour hits its final stretch, new chatter about their future has been moving across social media: Will they stay with YG Entertainment? The initial answer came on September 10th, 2025, through a viral X post made by @KPInsider_, and let’s say that they didn’t have great news. Their tweet claimed the girl group won’t renew their contract after the tour, but had no receipts or official sources.

Still, the rumor spread like wildfire, racking up millions of retweets and likes with BLACKPINK fans reacting in different ways. Some fans shrugged it off as another baseless internet rumor, while others admitted they wouldn’t mind seeing the girls head to a new agency, given their gripes about YG’s management. Of course, there’s also the intriguing factor: what if this really means no more BLACKPINK as a group at all?
For now, there has been no official announcement from YG Entertainment, nor from the members. Contract renewal season in K-pop has always been a tense moment, and this fresh rumor is making things just as dramatic. Meanwhile, the group is set to resume the DEADLINE World Tour in Taiwan on October 18th, 2025, with final stops in Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore.
