BLACKPINK has spent the past decade building one of the most internationally successful careers in K-pop. Among their biggest achievements, the group became the first K-pop girl group to reach No. BLACKPINK became the first K-pop girl group to perform at Coachella in 2019, then returned in 2023 as the first Asian act to headline the festival. The group has also accumulated billions of streams and views while building a worldwide touring audience. Ten years after their debut, BLACKPINK’s career reflects how dramatically K-pop’s international footprint has grown.
