Having sold millions of albums worldwide and held the accolade of being the first all-female group to top the US Billboard 200 Albums Chart in a decade in 2022, South Korean pop group Blackpink is one of the most popular artists in the world. Success continued to trail the group even as each member diverged to focus on solo projects.
Now, as Blackpink announced the dates for their ”Deadline” world tour performance, fans will get to watch their favourite stars perform on stage together once again. As you may have already heard, Malaysia did not make one of the tour stops for the upcoming concert.
However, some fans in Malaysia may find it a consolation that Blackpink will be performing in four closely situated locations in Southeast Asia, which are Bangkok, Bulacan, Jakarta and Singapore. As concert tourism is becoming a more common travel trend these days, some of you may consider traveling overseas to catch Blackpink’s concerts. If you have plans to fly out to see Blackpink, you will have to act fast as pre-sale kicks off on 10 June 2025.
