Unsurprisingly, it sparked a lot of speculation, and with contracts set to be renewed with YG Entertainment as a group as they end in 2026, it wasn’t surprising that many worried that it was maybe hinting at the group not renewing.

Blackpink won't disband, but being on stage all four of them? Idk, will we wait for another 3,5,8 years??
Next will be their journey as soloist and im truly excited about it. But still, them together as group also hit different because they're the one got me in K-pop
