Did you know that BLACKPINK’s contract with YG entertainment is going to end in August this year? Now, the biggest question is whether the group will be renewing its contract with the agency. On January 19, 2022, NH Investment & Securities reportedly predicted BLACKPINK will renew its contract with the label.

The contract renewal

What looks like a counter media report by Munhwa Ilbo on January 23, 2022, it won’t be so easy for YG Entertainment to renew the contract as the K-pop group members are offered much higher guarantees elsewhere. According to one of the insiders, BLACKPINK’s Lisa is being offered 100 billion KRW to switch labels! Other insiders still believe YG Entertainment would have to offer at around 20 billion KRW per member for the new contract. According to a few reports, YG Entertainment is launching Baby Monster to mitigate the potential failure of closing the deal with BLACKPINK.
