BLACKPINK is on the 2019 TIME 100 Next List Time.com: https://time.com/collection/time-100-next-2019/5718842/blackpink Blackpink’s star may still be rising in the U.S., but on YouTube, it reigns supreme: the foursome—a.k.a. Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa—has 31 million subscribers, more than any other music group in the world. This year, Blackpink also became the first K-pop girl group to perform at Coachella, heralding a new era of Korean acts stepping past language barriers to play global stages. Blackpink’s success has been powered in part by a devoted legion of digitally savvy fans—in this case, Blinks—who, among other things, helped its flashy “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du” music video reach 1 billion streams. The group’s goal, they say, is to make music that helps listeners gain “confidence and boldness.” —Kat Moon https://i.imgur.com/mPPPKAL.jpg BLACKPINK在美国或许还只是一颗正冉冉上升中的灿星, 但在YouTube上,她们有着统治级的表现。 这个由Jisoo、Jennie、Rosé与Lisa组成的4人团体, 拥有全球音乐团体之最的3100万订阅人数。 今年BLACKPINK也成为首个在Coachella演出的K-pop女团, 预示韩国艺人跨越语言隔阂,在全球舞台上表演的新时代到来。 BLACKPINK的成功,有部分归功于被称为BLINKs的忠实且熟悉网络的大量粉丝, 尤其是帮助她们闪耀的《Ddu-Du Ddu-Du》MV达成10亿观看数。 BLACKPINK表示,她们的目标是带来能帮助听众提升“信心和勇气”的音乐。 https://i.imgur.com/WcQxrFj.jpg ===== 大家可能有听过年度“《时代》百大人物”(TIME 100), 今年他们新推出了1个年度“次世代百大人物”(TIME 100 Next)名单, 共分为艺术家(Artists)、倡议者(Advocates)、领袖(Leaders)、奇才(Phenoms) 及创新者(Innovators),BLACKPINK被列在Phenoms之中。 (分类的中译参考自苹果日报报的香港梁天琦入选新闻,因为Phenoms有点难翻得传神) https://tw.appledaily.com/new/realtime/20191113/1663273/ 完整名单:https://time.com/collection/time-100-next-2019/ 遴选说明:https://time.com/5725626/how-we-chose-time-100-next/
