In fact, experts say that BLACKPINK’s group activities are not expected. This is because each member’s company is different, so unifying a group activity schedule is not easy. Kim Hye Young, a researcher at Daol Investment & Securities, said: “Because BLACKPINK’s individual contract was unsuccessful, we lowered the target stock price from 100,000 won to 70,000 won.”
