BLACKPINK is expected to battle with the top girl group Twice.
Since Twice's debut, it managed to turn heads tagging it as an ultimate visual group like Girls' Generation. The girls are from JYP Entertainment, which has a long rivalry with YG Entertainment.
Like YG, JYP is lacking its flagship female group. Wonder Girls have suffered member changes, Sunny and Sohee leaving, and change in genre from being a girl group to a band.
Miss A, on the other hand, has low popularity except for Suzy Bae. Moreover, Chinese member Jia left the group this year. It is still unclear what will happen in the group.
YG Entertainment's 2NE1 is currently in hiatus because of Park Bom's drug scandal. This led to the departure of maknae Minzy from the group and the label. With three active male groups currently under the agency, YG was in need of a flagship female group.
In the future, Twice and BLACKPINK may have the same comeback date. Moreover, both groups have pretty members and they may be the cream of the crop for endorsements.
BLACKPINK debut on Aug. 8 by dropping two music videos - "BOOMBAYAH" and "Whistle" that received an all-kill status in various music charts. The group is set to release six more songs as part of their debut.
As the new girl group is gaining steam, the profile of each member is gaining attention from the media and netizens. YG Entertainment has officially revealed the members of BLACKPINK - Jennie Kim, Lalisa Manoban, Kim Jisoo, and Park Roseanne.
