During the livestream, BLACKPINK brought joy to their fans with a one-of-a-kind birthday song. The moment Rosé blew out the candles and her hat flew off became a viral sensation on social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter). Rosé expressed her gratitude for having the opportunity to meet all four members before the anniversary, saying it made her feel incredibly fortunate.
Despite their lighthearted conversations, the girls made sure to inquire about each other’s personal endeavors. Jennie inquired about Lisa’s solo song “ROCKSTAR”and its accompanying dance challenge, while Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé eagerly shared their enthusiasm for Lisa’s upcoming appearance on the third season of the TV show *The White Lotus*.
Jennie pondered whether the 9th anniversary would bring a sense of melancholy, considering the significance of the number 8 this year. However, Jisoo reassured everyone that BLACKPINK would continue to celebrate their 88th anniversary, symbolizing the enduring bond of OT4 even as they pursue their own paths in their careers. This heartfelt sentiment touched fans deeply, reminding them that BLACKPINK will always be together in spirit.
Following the livestream, BLACKPINK had scheduled an 8th-anniversary fansign event in Seoul, South Korea on the afternoon of August 8. This exclusive event would give 88 fortunate fans the chance to meet the members of BLACKPINK in person. It would be their first fansign event since the release of their album *BORN PINK* more than a year ago.
