BLACKPINK
1st FULL ALBUM [THE ALBUM]

Released on October 6, 2020, BLACKPINK's first full album 'THE ALBUM' marks their growth into global artists since their debut with 'SQUARE ONE' in 2016.

The title track, 'Lovesick Girls,' builds the song's atmosphere with a sophisticated melody over a country-style guitar sound, enhanced by BLACKPINK's powerful vocals over a retro sound. The lyrics stand out by posing the ultimate question of why humans seek further love despite being hurt and pained by it. Notably, members Jisoo and Jennie participated in the lyrics and composition for the first time in a BLACKPINK song, further amplifying fans' anticipation.

In addition to 'Lovesick Girls,' the album includes a variety of BLACKPINK's unique charms and sounds, from the charismatic hip-hop sound of 'How You Like That' that proved their global influence, to the lively and refreshing melody of 'Ice Cream,' a collaboration with pop star Selena Gomez.

'THE ALBUM' was released in four different versions with unique package boxes, hard cover photobooks, and postcard sets. Pre-orders began on August 28, and the album was available nationwide in offline and online music stores from October 6.
