Blackpink’s first online concert – originally scheduled for December but postponed due to Covid-19-related issues – took place on Sunday as a celebration of the group’s career and the release of last year’s The Album.

Featuring a live band and showcasing their talent and chemistry, the approximately 90-minute event could never replace the experience of a live concert but still managed to reveal everything Blackpink have to offer, tantalisingly teasing what fans have to look forward to when the girls are able to go on world tours again.

While The Show was a dynamic look back at the group’s career, featuring their biggest hits and fan-favourite songs, the most exciting moments were the solo segments, where each member was given the chance to shine on her own.

Blackpink’s label, YG Entertainment, told the Post that almost 280,000 people signed up for YouTube membership to watch the performance, and the group’s fan membership grew by 2.7 million subscribers in connection with The Show. As of February 1, the group had 56.7 million followers on the streaming platform.
