South Korean K-pop sensation BLACKPINK has brought their electrifying “DEADLINE” world tour to Japan, creating an unforgettable experience for fans. According to YG Entertainment, the quartet—Rosé, Jennie, Lisa, and Jisoo—performed three consecutive shows at Tokyo Dome from 16 to 18 January, attracting a staggering 165,000 attendees across all performances. The series of concerts reaffirmed BLACKPINK’s global appeal and the devotion of their fanbase.
The shows opened with the high-energy tracks “Kill This Love” and “Pink Venom”, immediately setting the tone for an exhilarating night. Fans enthusiastically joined the group in singing along, while the seamless choreography amplified the excitement, creating a spectacular visual and auditory experience.
Following the opening hits, BLACKPINK delivered one success after another. Songs such as “Whistle”, “Boombayah”, and the internationally acclaimed “Jump” kept the crowd on their feet. The performance of “Jump” was particularly notable, as the track had previously topped the Billboard Global 200 chart in July 2025, and its popularity resonated strongly with both Japanese and international fans.
Towards the end of the shows, the members expressed heartfelt gratitude. Rosé, Jennie, and Lisa shared their emotions with the audience:
“It’s hard to believe how quickly time has flown. Over these three days, we’ve received incredible support from all of you. We want to extend our love and gratitude to each and every one of you.”
After their Tokyo Dome stint, BLACKPINK is set to conclude the Japanese leg of the tour with performances at Kai Tak Sports Park in Hong Kong from 24 to 26 January. These shows will mark the final stop of the “DEADLINE” world tour.
