BLACKPINK’s Lisa Mulls New US Record Label Amid Uncertainty

BLACKPINK recently wrapped up their ‘BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR [BORN PINK] FINALE IN SEOUL’ at Gocheok Sky Dome, concluding a remarkable global tour that commenced in October 2022. During the emotional farewell, Jennie’s tears on stage led fans to speculate about the future of the group, particularly regarding Lisa’s contract renewal.

Lisa’s Contract Dilemma

Since their debut in 2016, YG Entertainment has managed BLACKPINK. However, Lisa, whose real name is Lalisa Manobal, has reportedly decided not to renew her contract with the agency, rejecting offers that included a substantial sum of approximately $37.7 million. YG Entertainment responded, stating that discussions regarding Lisa’s re-signing were ongoing, but no official confirmation was provided.

A Potential Move to the US

Foreign media outlet ‘star.setn’ recently reported a high likelihood that Lisa will sign a new contract with a US record label instead of YG Entertainment. The US label has reportedly offered Lisa a signing bonus exceeding 50 billion won and promised various entertainment opportunities, including music, videos, fashion, concerts, and six albums. Rumors even suggest that Lisa may gain ownership of her future music, the right to establish her own studio, and collaborate with other artists, though these claims remain unconfirmed.

Financial Disparities and Uncertainty

Earlier reports hinted at Lisa receiving lower compensation compared to her fellow BLACKPINK members, although YG Entertainment did not confirm this. Meanwhile, Jennie, Rose, and Jisoo, Lisa’s bandmates, have not indicated whether they intend to continue with the same agency.
