[스포츠조선닷컴=이지현 기자] BLACKPINK’s official debut album has finally unveiled, partially. The title track of the album is ‘Lovesick Girls’.
On September 28 at 9 AM, YG Entertainment uploaded the teaser poster for ‘Lovesick Girls’ through their official blog.
In the dark background which looked like the streets at night, the members leaned their shoulders on each other. The 4 members of BLACKPINKS reminded the viewers of the wandering youth.
BLACKPINK’s unique character and aura as a group remained, but the members’ lonely facial expressions looked special.
Considering the title ‘Lovesick Girls’, the song is expected to cover wounds or pain from love, making the people look forward to the story BLACKPINK will tell through the song.
BLACKPINK is raising anticipation on their upcoming comeback by presenting various teaser contents.
Teaser clips of JENNIE, JISOO, ROSÉ, and LISA containing their dreamlike charms had noir vibes, raising curiosities on the concept of their upcoming official debut album.
BLACKPINK will release their long-awaited official debut album ‘THE ALBUM’ on October 2, in 4 years since making debut. As they will target the global market, the release time will be 12 AM in US EST and 1 PM KST on the same day.
Since BLACKPINK’s pre-release singles ‘How You Like That’ and ‘Ice Cream’ from their upcoming official debut album both became tremendous hits and raised the group’s presence in the global music market, the fans are highly anticipating the upcoming album.
‘How You Like That’ received an award at the US MTV Video Music Awards and was selected as ‘The Best Song of the Summer’ by YouTube. Furthermore, the song ‘Ice Cream’ collaborated with Selena Gomez was ranked at no. 13 on the US Billboard ‘Hot 100’ chart, renewing their own best K-Pop girl group record.
The two songs presented BLACKPINK’s contrasting charms, which added more meaning to their success. ‘How You Like That’ presented BLACKPINK’s unique girl crush and strong performances coming from Hip-hop based sounds, while ‘Ice Cream’ is a Pop genre song with cute and fresh concepts, which the group has presented for the first time.
Physical copies of BLACKPINK’s ‘THE ALBUM’ will be released on October 6 through nationwide retailers online and offline. Furthermore, the group’s Netflix original documentary titled ‘BLACKPINK: Light Up the Sky’ will premiere on October 14.
