Meanwhile, BLACKPINK kicked off their world tour recently in Seoul, where bandmember Jennie treated fans to a performance of an unreleased solo song.

The tour, which is in promotion of their second album ‘Born Pink’, opened last Saturday (October 15) at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena in South Korea.

BLACKPINK played their 23-song set, which included much from their new album as well as some of the bandmembers’ solo work, to fans who were able to hear some live debuts. These included ‘Born Pink’ tracks ‘Typa Girl’ and ‘Yeah Yeah Yeah’ as well as Rosé’s solo song ‘Hard To Love’.

Additionally, Jennie played unreleased solo track ‘Moonlight’. You can see footage of that performance alongside other clips here.
