The Born Pink World Tour ranked at number ten on Billboard's 2023 Year End Top 40 Tours chart worldwide, with a worldwide gross of $148.3 million from 29 reported shows, breaking the record for the highest-grossing concert tour by a female group. In total, the tour was attended by 1.8 million people, making it the most-attended concert tour by a K-pop girl group as well.

Background

On July 6, 2022, YG Entertainment confirmed that Blackpink would release new music and embark on the largest world tour by a K-pop girl group in history later in the year.[1] On July 31, it was revealed that the group's second Korean studio album Born Pink would be released in September, followed by the world tour starting in October.[2] On August 8, Blackpink announced 36 shows from October 2022 to June 2023 spanning Asia, North America, Europe, and Oceania, with more dates to be added in the future.[3][4] On September 6, the group unveiled the dates and venues for the North American and European legs of the tour.[5] On October 6, Blackpink released two teaser images of the tour's visual setup, one featuring a black space with clouds of white smoke, and the other featuring a garden-like setting.[6] The tour opened with two concerts on October 15 and 16, 2022, at the KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea, which were attended by over 20,000 people.[7] On October 28, the group revealed the dates and venues for the Asian leg of the tour.[8] They announced four dome concerts in two cities in Japan, Tokyo and Osaka, on December 7.[9] On January 9, 2023, Blackpink announced four additional shows for the Asian leg of the tour in Singapore, Macau and Kaohsiung.[10] On January 31, Blackpink announced ticketing details for the concerts in Australia and that the originally announced Auckland concert was no longer feasible due to "unforeseen logistical challenges."[11] It was also announced that Blackpink would tour for the first time in Mexico City.[12] As part of the encore leg of the tour, Blackpink announced a stadium concert in Paris on March 23,[13] and several stadium concerts in United States on April 16.[14] On June 26, the group announced two shows in Hanoi on July 29 and 30, before their United States encore shows.[15] On August 16, the finale shows in Seoul were announced.[16]

Production

According to the tour's creative director Amy Bowerman, the show was conceived as a celebration of Blackpink's dual identity, as well as the individuality of the members.[17] Split into four acts, the first act takes place in an enchanted garden and showcases Blackpink's "pink" side. Bowerman described it as a "woodland, nymph-esque world where it's very flirty and feminine." However, certain scenes hint at the group's darker side, with grotesque floral imagery such as a lily leaking metallic liquid and higher-energy music. The second act leans more into the mature aspect of Blackpink, featuring a "heavy monochrome that's very harsh and powerful." The lead single of Born Pink, "Pink Venom", was intended to be the focal point of the show; at the end of the second act, it serves as the turning point at which the color pink first appears in the production and is used heavily thereafter. The third act highlights each member as an individual with solo performances and a "weird trippy mix" of colors. The fourth and final act celebrates Blackpink's concept of duality as a whole, with imagery of dichotomies such as water and earth or fire and ice featured prominently.[18][19][20]

To produce the Born Pink World Tour, YG Entertainment approached Ceremony London—a visual production company that previously worked with artists such as Post Malone, Rina Sawayama, Holly Humberstone and Dua Lipa—providing the music and choreography of Born Pink in order to do so.[21] The production was ultimately a multilateral, collaborative effort between YG Entertainment's fully-female production team,[18] the group's American band and music director, and Ceremony London. Bowerman described the evolution of the show's concept as an "organic" process. Blackpink themselves were heavily involved in the show's planning and provided their input, especially regarding the set list. As they rehearsed for the tour, they determined which songs fit together and when, resulting in changes to the visuals, movements, and stage; however, "Pink Venom" remained the show's focal point. Fan interactions were also considered during the development of the show, with time allotted for Blackpink to spend engaging with their fans, called "Blinks".[19]

Concert synopsis

The show begins with a video interlude depicting Blackpink in an enchanted garden, after which the group rises from above the stage. Blackpink performs their harder-hitting songs "How You Like That", "Pretty Savage", and "Whistle", after which they introduce themselves and interact with the audience. The next portion of the setlist showcases the group's softer side with the songs "Don't Know What to Do" and "Lovesick Girls". The members then depart the stage for a costume change.

The second act of the concert begins with a black-and-white video interlude of Blackpink in a dystopian setting. They return to the stage with "Kill This Love", followed by "Crazy Over You", "Playing with Fire", "Tally", and "Pink Venom". Afterward, the members depart for a costume change, while the dancers participate in a dance circle onstage and the touring band plays guitar, bass, drum, and keyboard solos. The third act of the concert features solo performances by the members, each preceded by backdrops with their names on the main stage screen. Jisoo commences with a cover of Camila Cabello's "Liar", which is replaced by her song "Flower" from the Tokyo shows onwards. Jennie is next, performing her song "You & Me" as a partnered dance with dimmed lighting and a backdrop of their projected silhouettes. The third solo performance is by Rosé, who sings her songs "Hard to Love" and "On the Ground". Finally, Lisa performs a shortened version of her song "Lalisa" followed by her song "Money", which includes a pole dance routine and an extended dance break.

After another video interlude, Blackpink returns as a group for the fourth act of the concert and performs "Shut Down" and "Typa Girl". The members then pause to interact with the audience and teach the key choreography for the next song, "Ddu-Du Ddu-Du", whose performance features an extended dance break. The last song of the act is "Forever Young", after which Blackpink bids their goodbyes and departs the stage. However, Blackpink returns for an encore in casual shirts and sweatshirts from their tour's merchandise line. They perform "Yeah Yeah Yeah" and "Stay", taking different sides of the stage to dance with the audience and play with the cameras. Blackpink ends with "As If It's Your Last" and says a final goodbye before exiting the stage.[22]

The encore stadium shows in France and the United States feature a completely revamped setlist and stage design which was first performed on the group's headlining appearances at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and British Summer Time Hyde Park. The majority of the video interludes are absent from the show. "Pink Venom" starts off the new setlist with an explosive extended intro involving the backup dancers. "Pretty Savage" features a new chair dance break, after which Blackpink performs "Kick It" while sitting. For her solo stage, Jennie performs a remixed version of "You & Me" followed by her song "Solo". Jisoo performs her song "All Eyes on Me" followed by a shortened version of "Flower". Rosé performs a shortened version of her song "Gone" followed by "On the Ground". Lisa performs an explicit version of "Money" with an extended dance break. The performance of "Typa Girl" includes new choreography involving giant feathers and a new extended intro. The show ends with a series of fireworks as the members thank the audience and depart.[23]

Critical reception

Tamar Herman of Variety praised Blackpink's energy and connection with fans, writing that each member "vacillated throughout the show between a sense of exuberance and pure intensity" and explained that they. "hit their marks sometimes with intense fierceness and at others grinning while pulling another member towards the camera to do their part when they were busy playing with fans."[24] Reviewing the Dallas show, Consequence highlighted the group's impact "could be clocked before you even entered the building."[25]

Writing for Evening Standard, Ali Shutler gave the O2 Arena concerts five out of five stars, calling it "cherry-picked from a range of familiar genres to create something fresh and throughout the show, it felt like the four performers continued pop's long-standing legacy of girl power".[26] Likewise The Telegraph, Neil McCormick gave the same concerts four out of five stars, calling it "extraordinary".[27] Alexis Petridis of The Guardian and Rhian Daly of NME gave the tour four out of five stars, with the former regarding it as "exceptionally well made and high-impact."[28] and the latter called the show "the largest of its kind for a girl group in K-pop history."[29]

On the other hand, Le Parisien called the group's concert at Stade de France the "worst international concert this summer", writing that "Just because audiences filled the State De France doesn't mean the performance is good," criticizing the choreography for being "too textbook" and that "the members would often walk in front of each other due to miscommunication".[30]
