Another era of BLACKPINK has been heralded. Ahead of BLACKPINK's full comeback next year, the members' individual activities are expected to create synergy.

On the 25th, Jennie announced her first comeback since independence by releasing special content to celebrate Christmas and the end of the year through her official homepage. While previously revealing various contents such as teaser images and a year-end playlist, in this video, Jennie looked back on the year and shared memories with fans, while also announcing the release of a new single.

He raised expectations by saying, “I’ve experienced a lot of growth since the release of the single ‘Mantra’ last October,” and “The new single is a satisfying result after 11 months of work. It will show a completely different sound, and it will be an album that will try out various genres, like a buffet for everyone.” He also revealed that some of the songs on the new album will feature featured artists, adding to the curiosity.

Jennie left YG Entertainment last year, established OA Entertainment, and began her own activities. Since then, she has been showing her face through her own content and variety shows, and she has started her career as a full-fledged solo singer with 'Mantra'. Having previously achieved good results with her first solo album 'Solo' released by YG Entertainment, 'Mantra' has also achieved notable results on domestic and international music charts, and attention is focused on her new single.

In particular, since Rosé achieved global success with her pre-released track "Apartment" from her first full-length album last month, expectations are high for Jennie's success following her lead. Lisa's comeback is also expected to add strength to the reputation of the "top group." Lisa, who was the first to begin solo activities after independence from YG and has been "working hard" by releasing a total of three singles, is scheduled to show a new charm through her first full-length album "ALTER EGO" on February 28th next year.

Furthermore, with the full group comeback, it seems that BLACKPINK's new heyday will begin in 2025. BLACKPINK is expected to rock the world again by releasing a full group album and holding a world tour for the first time in three years since their second full-length album 'Bone Pink' in 2022.
