Article: "Blackpink is about to disband"

The next girl group has been decided and their debut is confirmed for January 1st. 

2NE1 also got thrown out after Blackpink's debut was confirmed. 

It really felt like they were wrapping up promotions when Blackpink released their 'Shutdown' MV and album. Even if they renew, they'll probably focus on their solo schedules over group activities.

1. [+110, -8] There has been no word of disbandment anywhere so why are you arguing with each other  ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ so just because they're putting out a new girl group it means Blackpink is disbanding? Other agencies are putting out girl groups too so seeing as Blackpink is the only one getting hit with disbandment rumors they're still in good shape.
2. [+101, -7] The most meaningless thing ever: arguing with panny*ons
3. [+92, -12] Why wouldn't they renew their contracts? Is there any other agency that takes care of its artists with a profit settlement ratio like YG hasㅋㅋ? Even if they don't renew their contracts, I think they'll all move to The Black Label together.
4. [+87, -14] Blackpink is their longest-running idol group right now, what kind of disbandmentㅋㅋ
5. [+65, -15] Blackpink tickets alone were over 200 billion won, it's not like they're a group that's barely scraping by so why would they disbandㅋㅋㅋ
6. [+56, -20] Why would YG abandon them. If anything, I think Blackpink overpowers YG right now생. I don't know if this was the case in the past but right now, even if YG bowed to Blackpink it wouldn't be enough..ㅋㅋㅋ. I can understand if they choose not to renew on their own because individually their solo careers are higher but they're already at the level where there's nothing to regret even if they choose to leave 까
7. [+30, -1] If they would've abandoned the Teddy sound they would've catapulted their music to a new era that's easy to listen to. If they keep going with the Teddy sound there's no reason to keep checking out their music anymore. I'll just listen to the new girl group going forward.
8. [+30, -15] That pharmacy is no longer a good agency. It really feels like they have no loyalty to their artists or affiliated singers. No matter how severe the disease is, at least SM treats their artists well until the end once they make them debut and continue to release new albums even after a long time. This pharmacy was once 'one top' in its heyday but they've since lost their footing and hit rock-bottom in the industry;
9. [+29, -1] They still top in the industry. I think they'll renew their contracts for a short period, maybe 2-3 years until their next position.
10. [+21, -12] Eh, the members themselves don't seem to care about singing anymore.
11. [+18, -1] Even without the new girl group, it just feels like recently the Blackpink members themselves are just not passionate about promotions anymore, so.. 
12. [+17, -6] Well, no one else expected 2NE1 to disband either but they did..
