At midnight KST on August 8th, BLACKPINK members shared various group photos to celebrate their 7th debut anniversary. In particular, Jisoo shared a long message to BLINKs through the fan community Weverse and did a live broadcast to chat with fans on this special day.
Not only in her post but also during the live broadcast, Jisoo mentioned the upcoming 8th-anniversary on August 8, 2024. This led fans to believe that BLACKPINK has renewed their contract with YG, which is why Jisoo is looking forward to the anniversary a year from now. She also revealed there is a secret good news that fans can look forward to.
Jisoo’s letter to BLINKs reads:
“Congratulations on our 7th anniversary, our dear BLINKs. It’s been 7 years, really. From the beginning until now, so many things have happened. Every time like this, I want to look back and see how I can express my feelings, gratitude, and love for BLINKs. From last year to this year, because we are going on a tour, we get to meet BLINKs more often.
Thank you for believing, supporting, and loving us for such a long time. In that time, through the letters you sent, the short conversations, the fansign events, I’ve heard so many stories from BLINKs and thought: ‘It’s really happy that we understand each other and can support each other.’
Thank you so much. BLINKs have made me stronger over these 7 years. I will be strong in the future as well. Let’s stay together forever. Let’s give each other more strength.
7th anniversary!!! It holds a deep and precious meaning.
The 8th-anniversary of our debut on August 8th, I wonder how important it is!! Let’s celebrate together at that time. I love you all.
BLACKPINK will become stronger and more mature in the future.
Our BLACKPINK members… I feel grateful for having such a precious connection like this. I feel grateful that not only are you all family, but also people I can trust unconditionally. Let’s continue to protect each other. I love you.”
