Before the announcement of BLACKPINK's new album and upcoming world tour, YG Entertainment confirmed that all four members successfully renewed their group contract.
The entertainment company reportedly said, "We have successfully reached an agreement within our board of directors regarding the signing of our exclusive group contracts for all four members of BLACKPINK, our esteemed artists."
This great news for BLINKS follows YG's previous announcement in mid-November, saying nothing was confirmed regarding the contract renewal since discussions with the members were still ongoing.
However, Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa and Rosé's individual contracts are still being discussed, per Korea JoongAng Daily. This means that there are possibilities that the members would sign with other agencies for their solo activities but continue their group activities as BLACKPINK under their exclusive group contract with YG Entertainment.
