Last week she released \u201cAddicted,\u201d a moody dance-pop number about being powerless against attraction. The track has hit the top of iTunes Top Songs charts across 28 regions and also led the iTunes Worldwide Songs chart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cAddicted\u201d is the follow-up to \u201cClick,\u201d which was billed as her first pre-album single. That song, a pop track, centers on two people from very different backgrounds who find their way to each other.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tJisoo has also kept busy outside the recording studio in 2026. Earlier this year she completed Blackpink\u2019s Deadline World Tour, a sold-out run that played stadiums across North America, Europe and Asia. She headlined \u201cBoyfriend on Demand,\u201d a Netflix rom-com series that debuted in March, and made her first Met Gala appearance in May. She also teamed with Off-White and Pok\u00e9mon on brand collaborations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tJisoo first went solo in 2023 with her debut EP \u201cMe,\u201d which set a South Korean benchmark as the first record by a female soloist there to top 1 million in sales. Its breakout single \u201cFlower\u201d climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Global 200 and went one better on the Global Excl. U.S. chart, where it hit No. 1. The music video drew the biggest 24-hour audience of any K-pop video released that year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tShe followed with the 2025 mini album \u201cAmortage,\u201d featuring the tracks \u201cEarthquake\u201d and \u201cYour Love.\u201d Last year she also released \u201cEyes Closed,\u201d a collaboration with <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/t\/zayn\/\" id=\"auto-tag_zayn\" data-tag=\"zayn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Zayn<\/a> that became her second solo release to crack the Top 10 of Billboard\u2019s Global Excl. U.S. chart. The song also charted at No. 20 on the Global 200, while on the Hot 100 it peaked at No. 72.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWME\u2019s music division counts Adele, Billie Eilish, Bruno Mars, Coldplay, Olivia Rodrigo, Rihanna, Shakira and The Weeknd among its clients. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jisoo, the singer and actor best known as a member of K-pop group Blackpink, has signed with talent&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":677255,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[8139,93,61,60,52479,278,80752,52480],"class_list":["post-677254","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-blackpink","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-jisoo","tag-music","tag-wme","tag-zayn"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=677254"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677254\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/677255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=677254"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=677254"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=677254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
