Blackpink's Anticipated Comeback: 'Deadline' Album Set for Release
The K-pop sensation Blackpink is gearing up for their highly anticipated return with the announcement of their third mini album, 'Deadline'. This marks the end of their six-month world tour, 'Deadline World Tour', and fans are eagerly awaiting the release. The album is set to drop on February 27, 2026, via YG and Interscope Records.
This marks Blackpink's first major release since their 2022 album 'Born Pink'. During this time, each member of the group has been busy with solo projects, releasing their own albums.
