Group BLACKPINK’s’THE SHOW’ captivated the eyes and ears of music fans around the world, proving a unique class.
Black Pink successfully completed the first live stream concert’YG PALM STAGE-2021 BLACKPINK: THE SHOW’ held through the official YouTube channel on the 31st of last month.
From the existing mega hit medley to the performance of the song’THE ALBUM’ first unveiled on this day, and the stage of Rosé’s new solo song, Black Pink has constantly filled the running time of about 90 minutes with a total of 19 songs.
‘THE SHOW’, like the intuitive title of the performance, was’Artist Black Pink’s unique show’ itself. Black Pink, which implemented an analog stage directing to revive offline performances, presented a vivid sense of reality with high-quality live that conveys from the live band’s sound to the members’ breathing.
The large stage added the fun of watching the performance. The three main sets were converted to 10 different stages to match the mood of the song. From the stage set that reproduced the actual cave to the fragments of the stairs in the ruined city, a realistic and delicately depicted installation stood out. The flowers bloom in the ruins, the wing prism that illuminates the place, and the composition of returning to a bright city in a surreal space through a tunnel in a cave, conveying a hopeful message to overcome the pandemic situation.
The climax was the stage of’Ddu-du-du-du’ unfolding on the water stage. The flames soared, and the immersion was enhanced by capturing the vitality of the water droplets that bounced along with the movement. ‘SOUR CANDY’, which was unveiled for the first time on this day, also attracted attention with a splendid performance and original stage direction unfolded in a mirror room space using 12 pieces.
The solo stage that released the unique charms and skills of the four members of Jisoo Lisa’s Jenny Rose was also a masterpiece. ‘Habits’ of Jisoo, which has been revised in Korean to add a sense of vagueness and dreamy charm, Lisa’s’Say So’ reminiscent of a Broadway musical, and Jenny’s’SOLO’, a new interpretation of an existing song with an oriental concept. Fans cheered on a fantastic stage that fully melted growth.
Above all, the music video and stage of Rosé’s sub title song’GONE’, which is about to release a solo album, were first released, and a great response was poured out. Rosé’s unique dreamy yet sorrowful voice and guitar performance harmonized, giving everyone a sense of immersion that was breathtaking.
As a result of the first identification, the number of Black Pink’THE SHOW’ membership subscribers was about 280,000. It is a live stream concert that K-pop girl groups gathered at once, and has already recorded the highest number of audiences, and YG is planning to confirm the exact final count result with YouTube in a few days.

On the day of the performance, the hashtag’#THE SHOWToday’ rose to the top of the Twitter trend, and the names of the four Black Pink members topped the top 10.

US Billboard columnist Jeff Benjamin said, “The superstar sensibility of BLACKPINK members, as well as’THE SHOW’, was a series of stages that continued to provide new twists and prove how they are constantly developing artists.” . He added, “The’THE SHOW’, which was closed with’Forever Young’ containing the messages of fans, was added to the human element, creating infinite emotion and admiration.”
