Thank you, BLINKS, for your endless love and support. This one’s for you!”
“AMORTAGE” represents JISOO’s most comprehensive solo effort to date, signaling a “rebirth” for the internationally acclaimed artist. The album features a blend of English and English/Korean language tracks, offering a diverse sonic experience. The title itself, “AMORTAGE,” cleverly merges “amor” (love) and “montage,” reflecting the album’s exploration of the various stages and fleeting moments that define a relationship. The tracks collectively weave a vivid tapestry of this emotional journey.
JISOO’s solo career has been on a meteoric rise since 2023, building upon her already massive success with BLACKPINK. Her influence extends far beyond music, as evidenced by her impressive 79+ million Instagram followers and billions of streams. Her previous single album, “Me,” achieved remarkable milestones, becoming the best-selling album by a female soloist in South Korea and the first to surpass a million sales.
The breakout hit “꽃(FLOWER)” solidified her solo power, making her the first female K-Pop solo artist to achieve 1 million preorders and securing numerous other accolades, including the highest first-week sales by a female soloist and the highest 24-hour count for any K-Pop music video in 2023. “FLOWER” also made history in Canada, becoming the highest-charting hit by a Korean solo female artist. Its success resonated globally, reaching #2 on the Billboard Global 200 and #1 on the Global Excl. U.S. Chart.
Beyond music, JISOO’s influence in fashion and culture is undeniable. She serves as a global ambassador for prestigious brands like Dior, Cartier, and Dyson, and was recently named the face of ALO Yoga. She also made a significant impact at New York Fashion Week, earning the title of “the most-mentioned celebrity.” Adding to her diverse portfolio, JISOO stars in the K-Drama series “Newtopia,” available on Prime Video.
