BLACKPINK

BLACKPINK became the first K-pop girl group to headline Coachella (2023), drawing over 125,000 attendees across two weekends and solidifying their global appeal. With over 80 million YouTube subscribers and their 2022-23 Born Pink World Tour grossing $277 million, they are the highest-grossing girl group in K-pop history—earning 85% more than the runner-up, TWICE's entire tour revenue. Their fanbase, "Blinks," spans Asia, Europe, and the Americas, demonstrating a cross-continent reach that rivals even #1 BTS in Western markets.
