BLACKPINK is back and better than ever. With the recent release of “Jump,” the global girl group has reunited and reminded fans everywhere why they continue to make history. From jaw-dropping performances to cultural milestones, BLACKPINK has been behind some of the most iconic moments in K-pop history. Here are just a few that truly left a mark.

1. Coachella 2019

BLACKPINK made history as the first K-pop girl group to perform at Coachella. Their set drew massive attention and officially launched their global stardom.

2. Coachella Headliners 2023

Years later, BLACKPINK returned to Coachella — this time as headliners. They became the first Asian act to headline the festival, signaling a major shift in the global music scene.

3. “DDU-DU DDU-DU” Dance Move

The finger-gun move from “DDU-DU DDU-DU” quickly became one of the most recognizable dance moves in K-pop. It went viral across the world and remains iconic to this day.

4. All the Solos

Each member’s solo career brought a different flavor to the table. Jennie’s “SOLO,” Lisa’s “Money,” Jisoo’s “Flower,” and Rosé’s “On The Ground” and “Gone” showed their versatility and star power. These weren’t just side projects — they became mega hits in their own right.

5. BLACKPINK Variety Show

YG Entertainment doesn’t often let its artists appear on variety shows, so when BLACKPINK got their own, fans were thrilled. It offered a rare and fun glimpse into their personalities, showing a different side of the members beyond the stage.
