Blackpink, a South Korean girl group, released the promotional single “Ready for Love” to promote their partnership with the Battle Royale video game PUBG Mobile. It became the group’s first Korean release since The Album .
The two-year hiatus of Blackpink has now ended. The immensely successful K-Pop group’s label, YG Entertainment, had widely bragged that its most expensive music video to date will be for its new single, “Ready For Love,” as if expectation for it weren’t already at an all-time high. The video was release on youtube on the 29th of July and it had over 3 million views in just 3 hours.
The release of “Ready For Love” follows BLACKPINK’s comeback in August. In an earlier statement on July 5, YG Entertainment explained that the girl group was in the “final stages of recording a new album.” According to the statement, new K-pop songs as well as “a continuous large-scale project which will run into the second half of the year” would be released sometime in August.
Before the song explodes into an EDM-influenced banger, Jenni and Rosé sing the song’s pre-chorus, “There’s no need to wait now/No need to be afraid.” “Open your eyes, here I am in front of you. Show me the color of your heart. I really need you in my world.”
Blackpink announced earlier this month that they will embark on a big globe tour and are in the “final stages of recording a new album.”
In addition to releasing new music and undertaking significant initiatives, Blackpink will go on the biggest world tour ever undertaken by a K-pop girl group before the end of the year, according to a press statement from their management company, YG Entertainment.
Review of the video
The video has receives different welcoming, some people love it, some are in different, while some do not love it .
The song starts in the video as Rosé’s digital avatar sings in a forest. Later, Jisoo can be seen crossing an icy pond while singing “I don’t know how many times you’ve thrown away my heart / A train of thought is running nonstop.” Following Jennie sitting on the water’s surface, we encounter Lisa with a blunt haircut riding a motorcycle down a highway. All four of them have the ability to fly, walk on water, and even transform into ice in their virtual incarnations.
Ready For Love is a stop gap. We have the dynamic rap and powerful vocal melodies that are characteristics of BLACKPINK. But they’re concealed by a song that might be seen by some to be beneath a group of this stature. To some it seems like an OST.
What can we actually anticipate? The fact is, anything you record will be met with high expectations when you release as infrequently as BLACKPINK do.
we look forward to the next Black Pink release.
