BLACKPINK’s Jisoo is back in the studio and fully immersed in music, preparing both the group’s upcoming album and her solo follow-up, following the success of her debut extended play, Amortage. The singer shared with GQ Korea that she is completely absorbed in the creative process, describing her recent days as “fully living in music.”

Excited? I can’t help it — I really do feel that way. Right now, I’m preparing both BLACKPINK’s new album and my solo album. During the process of gathering ideas and creating new music, the excitement just comes naturally. Lately, it really feels like I’m fully living and immersing myself in music,” Jisoo revealed.

This renewed focus on music contrasts with the early part of 2025, when Jisoo concentrated heavily on her acting career. Earlier this year, she was praised for her performances in drama and film, showcasing her versatility beyond the stage and spotlighting her as one of K-pop’s most talented multi-hyphenates. However, she now shifts her energy back to music, signaling a return to the craft that first made her globally recognized.

Amortage, released in 2023, marked Jisoo’s first single under her own label after leaving YG Entertainment and Interscope Records. The extended play showcased her artistic growth as a soloist, combining emotive vocals with striking visuals, and achieved significant streaming milestones worldwide. It established her as a formidable solo act while retaining her identity as a key member of BLACKPINK.

Balancing her work with BLACKPINK while shaping her personal musical identity, Jisoo’s current projects reflect her dedication to artistry and fans alike. She describes this period as a phase where ideas flow freely, inspiration is abundant, and creativity reaches its peak — a time when she feels most connected to her craft. Fans can expect her solo follow-up to build on Amortage’s success, delivering new tracks that highlight her evolution, while BLACKPINK’s upcoming album continues the group’s global momentum.
