Amidst the speculations surrounding Blackpink’s future plans, YG Entertainment, the group’s management agency, has dismissed rumors suggesting that Jennie and bandmate Jisoo are considering launching their own “one-man agency.” YG Entertainment clarified that the contract renewal negotiations for Blackpink are still ongoing, and nothing has been officially confirmed regarding their future activities.
Addressing the contract renewal rumors, YG Entertainment released a statement affirming that discussions are underway and no decisions have been made. The agency stated, “Nothing has been confirmed regarding Blackpink’s contract renewals and their future activities.” This statement puts an end to the speculation surrounding the members’ individual plans within the entertainment industry.
