“KILL THIS LOVE” is the title track from the K-Pop quartet’s highly anticipated EP, which was released on April 5^th on YG Entertainment/Interscope Records. The track climbed to #1 on iTunes in 37 countries. It is the first song by a girl group to reach #1 on iTunes in the US since Destiny’s Child’s “Lose My Breath” nearly 15 years ago. It is also the first song in history by a Korean girl group to achieve a #1 on the all-genre US iTunes chart.

BLACKPINK are set to deliver a much-buzzed-about appearance as one of the top-billed acts at this year’s Coachella, making them the first K-pop girl group ever to grace the stage at the country’s premier music festival. Following Coachella, BLACKPINK will embark on the North American leg of their world tour featuring sold-out shows in Los Angeles, Chicago, Hamilton,Newark, Atlanta, and Fort Worth. In addition, BLACKPINK will make their Late Late Show With James Corden performance debut next week on April 18^th, making them the first K-Pop girl group to perform on the show.

Since first bursting onto the scene in 2016, BLACKPINK redefined the possibilities of K-pop, transcending all categorization and ascending to global stardom. With their unstoppably catchy track “DDU-DU DDU-DU,” the South Korean quartet shattered the record for the highest-charting Billboard Hot 100 debut by an all-female K-pop act, while its head-turning video surpassed 10 million views in just six hours and amassed 36.2 million views in one day.
