A First For BLACKPINK On The Music Bank Stage

Since BLACKPINK debuted in August 2016, the four-member group has built a remarkable international career, but its members had not appeared as performers on Music Bank. The programme is one of South Korea’s best-known weekly music shows, giving artists a platform to present new releases to domestic audiences.

The historic gap has often been noted by K-pop fans and entertainment coverage. A 2023 report by allkpop highlighted that BLACKPINK had recorded no performance appearances on the programme since its debut. Jisoo’s November 13 stage therefore represents a notable first for a member of the group.

There is an important distinction between performing and receiving a trophy. Jisoo previously won Music Bank with “Flower” in April 2023, despite not appearing on that episode as a performer. The April 14, 2023 results listed her as the winner against BTS’ Jimin. Friday’s appearance is significant because it brings her onto the programme’s performance stage.

Jisoo Brings “ADDICTED” To The KBS Stage

Jisoo’s appearance forms part of the promotional activities for “ADDICTED”, a solo release that arrived on October 30, 2026. The track is the second pre-release single from her upcoming first full-length studio album, following “CLICK”. Jisoo also participated in writing the lyrics, adding a personal creative contribution to the release.

Before the programme, KBS WORLD documented Jisoo and other artists arriving at Yeoido KBS Hall for rehearsals on November 13. The broadcaster’s official arrival coverage listed Jisoo among the performers attending the day’s Music Bank recording. Her agency, BLISSOO, had also issued a fan notice for the “ADDICTED” pre-recording.

The performance follows a renewed run of domestic music-show promotions. Maeil Business Newspaper reported earlier in November that “ADDICTED” had topped the Worldwide Song Chart and reached No. 1 on iTunes in 28 regions, while noting Jisoo’s return to Korean music programmes after an extended break.

Why The Appearance Matters

For fans, the moment carries significance beyond another promotional stop. BLACKPINK’s absence from Music Bank had become an unusual footnote in the group’s career, particularly because the members had appeared on other major Korean music programmes. Jisoo’s solo appearance finally gives the group’s fanbase a connection to a stage that had remained missing from its performance history.

It also underlines the distinction between BLACKPINK’s group identity and the individual paths its members have pursued as solo artists. Jisoo’s latest chapter combines her established global profile with a more active solo promotional schedule, while “ADDICTED” gives her a fresh release to introduce to Korean television audiences.

Jisoo’s Music Bank appearance is therefore a landmark for the singer and for BLACKPINK’s performance history: the first time a member of the group has taken the programme’s stage as a performer.
