The poster for the group's fourth tour promises that more dates will be announced in the future. The tour was teased at the end of the recent prom-themed video for the English-language single "The Feels," which featured an image of the poster with some key dates. Among the spotlight upcoming events are their sixth anniversary week -- which took place last month -- as well as a tease for their third album, due this month, and the upcoming tour.

The new full-length features TWICE's No. 10-charting Global Excl. U.S. single "The Feels," the act's first effort entirely in English. The set also features new track "Scientist," which sees the nine-piece telling their lovers that there's no need for special equations or chemicals when it comes to true romance.

BLACKPINK’s Jennie is set to return with another solo release.

The 30 year old singer has confirmed that her digital solo EP, Fallen Angel, will arrive on August 28. The project will include three songs, FALLEN ANGEL, HEAVEN and Less Than a Lover.

The announcement was shared through the social media accounts of Odd Atelier, Jennie’s own company, where the new project was described as “A gift from JENNIE, with love”.

Jennie also confirmed that fans will be able to watch the music video for the EP’s title track on the same day the project comes out.

The upcoming release arrives only a few months after BLACKPINK dropped their highly awaited mini album Deadline in February.

The K pop group, made up of Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa and Rosé, concluded their Deadline world tour on January 26, 2026, with their final show taking place at Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong.

The group first introduced the project with the lead single JUMP in July 2025. The five track release was later completed with GO, Me and my, Champion, and Fxxxboy.

YG Entertainment previously shared its thoughts on Deadline, saying: “Even amid the intense schedule of a large-scale world tour, the members devoted significant time and effort to perfecting this album. We are confident it is a body of work that encapsulates both the individual musical capabilities of the four members and their synergy as a team. We ask for your continued support as BLACKPINK once again leaves a meaningful mark on the global music industry.”

The four members continued developing their individual careers after BLACKPINK released their 2022 album Born Pink.

Lisa had earlier given fans a glimpse into the group’s plans, revealing that the members had recently returned to the studio to work on music for another album.

Speaking with Variety, she said: “Actually, we were in the studio a few days ago.

"We’re all so super excited to get back together and go on tour. We really miss the Blinks. We can’t wait to see them."

Each member has also built a strong presence through their solo work.

Rosé released her solo album Rosie, which included her Grammy nominated collaboration with Bruno Mars, APT..

Lisa later unveiled her first full length album, Alter Ego, while also stepping into acting with a role on HBO's The White Lotus, which was filmed in Thailand. Jennie launched her first solo album, Ruby, last year, while Jisoo released her EP Amortage, giving each member another opportunity to showcase her own musical style.
