BLACKPINK’s latest tour announcement has ignited a fresh wave of criticism from fans.
BLACKPINK‘s recent world tour update has stirred considerable backlash among their fanbase.
In an official post made on May 27, BLACKPINK unveiled a new tour poster on X, which, although bearing a resemblance to their initial promotional materials, included additional dates in Asia slated for later this year.

This announcement has not gone over well with some fans, who took to social media to express their disappointment. Many criticized the “reused” design of the tour poster, while others expressed frustration over the lack of information regarding a potential album release before the tour begins.

Comments on platforms like Twitter and Reddit reflected widespread discontent. One user pointed out, “Let’s not forget that we gave BLACKPINK their highest-grossing single night show on the BORN PINK World Tour. YG skipping us now is just wild. LOL.” Fans are particularly disappointed about countries that seem to have been overlooked for this “world tour,” raising concerns about the commitment to their international fanbase.
Where’s the album? WHERE?!?

Despite the criticism, some fans did voice appreciation for the addition of new dates and the consideration for the members’ well-being by allowing a break between shows. This sentiment was echoed by those who acknowledged how demanding the last tour must have been.
As the controversy continues to unfold, it remains clear that BLACKPINK’s tour announcements have sparked a blend of excitement and frustration among their dedicated fanbase.
