BLACKPINK ‘s JISOO has signed with WME for worldwide representation. Announced Friday (Nov. 6), the K-pop superstar joins the WME roster just days after the release of “Addicted,” the second pre-release single from her forthcoming debut solo album. Earlier, in September, she dropped the single “ Click ,” and a third solo song is expected in the weeks ahead, “Sun Showers,” an original number that will appear on the The Angry Birds Movie 3 soundtrack, according to The Hollywood Reporter . As a member of the record-busting BLACKPINK, JISOO completed the sold-out Deadline World Tour earlier this year, a trek that stopped in major stadiums across North America, Europe and Asia. Adjacent to her pop career, the in-demand South Korean artist has a growing profile in film and fashion. She’s the global ambassador for Dior, Cartier, Tommy Hilfiger and Salomon; was appointed the face of ALO Yoga, and in 2024 became the first musician to be the face of the London fashion house Self-Portrait ; she landed a starring role in the Netflix romcom Boyfriend on Demand , which premiered in March; and recently launched brand collaborations with Off-White and Pokémon. It’s been full speed ahead for JISOO, who teased her new solo chapter last year with “ EYES CLOSED,” a collaboration with ex-One Direction star Zayn . The single reached No. 72 on the Billboard Hot 100. With that effort, BLACKPINK became the first girl group to have every member enter the Hot 100 as a solo artist. BLACKPINK released the DEADLINE EP in February of this year, after completing the tour of the same name. DEADLINE opened at No. 8 on the Billboard 200, and marked their first major music release since hitting No. 1 on the all-genres albums tally with 2022’s Born Pink . JISOO began her solo journey in 2023, with the release of her debut EP, ME , which became the first album by a female solo artist in South Korea to surpass one million sales. Its single, “꽃(FLOWER),” powered to No. 2 on the Billboard Global 200 in April of that year, and No. 1 on the Global Excl. US chart. A debut mini album arrived in 2025, AMORTAGE , and included songs “earthquake” and “Your Love. When her album proper arrives, expect the full package. “Since I’m preparing a full-length album this time, I’m working on showing a wider range of music,” she told V Magazine for an interview published in May . “I think I’d be really happy if people listen to this album and say they discovered a new side of me.” At WME, JISOO joins a stable of artists that includes Andrea Bocelli, Billie Eilish, Bob Dylan, Bruno Mars, Chris Stapleton, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, Foo Fighters and many others.
