These are the things that brought the girls to become a sort of a role model for K-Pop fans regardless of the country or background.” He further explained, “BLACKPINK clearly expressed this and depicted this aspect since their debut. Not only in music but in fashion and visuals as well. The girl group has used the added values that came from those aspects as the group’s identity. They strengthened their luxurious image by collaborating with famous fashion brands. This gave birth to the BLACKPINK we know – the most luxurious and fashionable image.” cr [URL:https://www.allkpop.com/article/2021/03/a-modern-music-critic-explains-one-of-the-reasons-why-blackpink-is-so-popular-globally] original post: theqoo [URL:https://theqoo.net/index.php?mid=hot&filter_mode=normal&document_srl=1889638019] 1. I agree with him 2. Good songs, beautiful choreography, beautiful looks and perfect image, so it will be a big hit 3. But first of all, the members have good skills. They sing, rap, dance and live well… 4. BLACKPINK is a perfect group in every way 5. He’s right, BLACKPINK has a very classy image for meㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 6. I think YG is good with that stuff 7.
