WME Signs BLACKPINK’s JISOO for Worldwide Representation

The K-pop star joins WME just days after the release of “Addicted,” the second pre-release single from her forthcoming debut solo album.

JISOO, a member of the highly successful K-pop group BLACKPINK, has joined the global representation agency WME. The announcement came on November 6, just days after the release of her second pre-release single from her solo debut album. Earlier this year, JISOO dropped the single "Click," and a third solo song, "Sun Showers," is set to be released in the coming weeks for The Angry Birds Movie 3 soundtrack.

Known for her impressive career within BLACKPINK, JISOO completed the sold-out Deadline World Tour, performing in major stadiums across North America, Europe, and Asia. Beyond her music, she has been involved in various fashion and film projects, including roles as a global ambassador for Dior, Cartier, Tommy Hilfiger, Salomon, and the face of ALO Yoga.

In 2024, she became the first musician to serve as the face of London fashion house Self-Portrait. JISOO's solo journey began in 2023 with the release of her debut EP, ME, which became the first album by a solo female artist in South Korea to surpass one million sales. Her upcoming full-length album is expected to showcase a wider range of music styles, giving listeners a fresh perspective on her artistry.

With WME, JISOO joins an impressive roster of artists including Andrea Bocelli, Billie Eilish, Bob Dylan, Bruno Mars, Chris Stapleton, Coldplay, Depeche Mode, and Foo Fighters.
