Who are the members of BLACKPINK?

BLACKPINK is made up of four members: Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa.

Jisoo is the oldest member of the group. She is a singer who grew up outside of Seoul, South Korea. Jisoo is known for her funny and quirky personality. Fans find her very entertaining and endearing.

Jennie, the second oldest member of the group, is a singer and rapper. She grew up in Seoul, but she also lived in New Zealand for a few years. Jennie is known for her chic, high-fashion image. She wears a lot of luxury brands and is a bona fide trendsetter.

Rosé, the second youngest member, was born in New Zealand and raised in Australia. She has been singing since she was young and moved to South Korea as a teenager to pursue music. Rosé is known for her unique voice.

Lisa is the youngest member of BLACKPINK. She was born and raised in Thailand. Like Rosé, Lisa moved to South Korea as a teenager to become a K-pop idol. She is known for being a skilled dancer and rapper.

When did BLACKPINK realize they make a great team?

The BLACKPINK members are all different from each other. They come from different backgrounds and have different personalities. However, when they were trainees at YG Entertainment, they discovered they had great teamwork.

In the documentary Light Up the Sky, the members recalled that their CEO often put them into various groups as trainees. The trainees would then do screen tests and record demos together. When Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa were made to team up, they realized they worked well with each other.

“It happened naturally,” Lisa said. “We just clicked.”

Jennie added, “We just got along so well. Because usually [someone would be] like, ‘Oh, I wanna sing more.’ Or, ‘I wanna be in the middle.’ There’s always those little fights going on in the groups. But when it was the four of us, it was clear what we were doing.”

Jisoo also noticed that when the four of them were together, “big things can happen.”

Like any group of people, the members of BLACKPINK occasionally do have their differences.

For example, in a deleted scene from Light Up the Sky, Rosé and Lisa revealed that they used to get on each other’s nerves when they first started training together. 

Additionally, in an interview with the Japanese show Love Music, Jisoo shared that the members did have arguments in the past.

However, the members eventually learned to resolve their issues maturely. As such, they can now work together seamlessly.
