Blackpink bring K-pop to Wembley – and confirm their place as megastars ...Middle East

Yet it was a happily chaotic, unpolished cover of the Spice Girls’ Wannabe during the encore that said most about how this K-pop juggernaut has evolved in the two years since they last played London.

But after a hiatus during which the band negotiated a new contract with their label YG and each of its members pursued successful solo endeavours, Jisoo, Lisa, Jennie and Rosé were visibly more playful and relaxed than in 2023.

Dispensing with the need for a support act, Blackpink blasted the show open with a trio of anthems; Kill This Love, Pink Venom and How You Like That.

Act two of a show that was constructed as a five-act epic saw ethereal, reserved Jisoo perform solo hits Earthquake and Your Love, only to be followed by Lisa who, as if to prove her difference, rose onto the stage for her solo set dressed in a tiny, fluffy pink top and skirt inspired by Labubu dolls.

And so it went on. Act three brought the full band back on stage before Jennie and Rosé took their turns to go it alone.

If there was a quibble with the evening, it was not with Blackpink but with the production, with overlong and oddly slow-paced video segments between acts breaking the momentum to allow for multiple costume changes.

The Wembley arch was lit pink as the Blinks filed out of the stadium, singing their way to the tube like football fans whose team had just lifted the FA Cup.

Some feared that time apart might spell the end of Blackpink. Instead it appears to have been the making of them.
