BLACKPINK has completed a large-scale project in Japan to commemorate their Tokyo Dome concert.
According to YG Entertainment on January 22, the cumulative number of visitors to the BLACKPINK third world tour 'DEADLINE' pop-up store has surpassed 100,000. Starting in Tokyo in July last year, the event expanded to major cities including Kobe, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, and continued to attract attention even after the tour ended.
The currently operating Layard Miyashita Park and Shibuya109 collaboration stores have transformed the Shibuya area into a 'BLACKPINK Zone' by installing large-scale visuals and content throughout the district.
Official tour merchandise was showcased alongside collaboration items with street fashion icon Hiroshi Fujiwara's 'FRAGMENT', Sanrio character 'My Melody', as well as local sports teams such as Yomiuri Giants, FC Tokyo, and Sunrockers Shibuya.
From January 16 to 18, BLACKPINK sold out all seats for their Tokyo Dome concerts, drawing a total audience of 165,000. On the opening day of the concert, four major landmarks-Tokyo Tower, Kobe Port Tower, Nagoya Mirai Tower, and Sapporo TV Tower-were illuminated simultaneously.
BLACKPINK will release their third mini album 'DEADLINE' at 2 p.m. on February 27. This will be their first full-group album in about three years and five months since their second studio album 'BORN PINK'.
