BLACKPINK is facing backlash over their new song “JUMP” after debuting it live during their Seoul stop on the DEADLINE world tour.
The girl group performed the highly anticipated single for the first time on July 5, 2025, but reactions from Korean netizens quickly turned negative. While international fans still seem supportive following the initial teaser, many Korean fans criticized the track harshly.
A post on TheQoo’s HOT page gathered nearly 1,000 comments and 50,000 views expressing disappointment. Netizens slammed the song’s quality, saying it “doesn’t feel like a BLACKPINK release” and calling it “B-class” or “a mess.”
“Who gave BLACKPINK a song like this? It’s so bad.”
“It’s so bad it’s hilarious… This is seriously a mess.”
“It’s giving B-grade vibes lol.”
“The song is fun, yeah, but it doesn’t feel like a BLACKPINK track…”
“Wow… so this is the kind of song they get after not renewing their contracts.”
The controversy began soon after clips of the live performance went viral online. The single has yet to be officially released in full quality, so opinions could still change.
Fans are watching closely to see how BLACKPINK’s comeback will perform on the charts, especially as all four members have launched solo careers prior to this release.
