BLACKPINK’s Jisoo Releases Solo Mini-Album ‘AMORTAGE,’ Breaks Multiple Records

BLACKPINK member Jisoo has made her highly anticipated solo comeback by releasing her mini-album AMORTAGE on February 14, 2025. The project features four tracks, including the lead single “Earthquake,” which has already garnered significant attention for its bold sound and visually striking music video.

The album marks a departure from Jisoo’s debut solo single, “Flower,” which showcased a softer, romantic style. “Earthquake” introduces a more intense and dynamic energy, combining groovy beats with Jisoo’s powerful vocals. The music video adds a surreal narrative, depicting Jisoo as an office worker whose ordinary day is disrupted by a mysterious text, leading to a series of dramatic and dreamlike events.

AMORTAGE has achieved remarkable success since its release, breaking several records within minutes:

• Best-Selling Album of 2025
• Best-Selling Solo Album of the Year
• Best-Selling International Album in China

The album also became the fastest project to receive a GOLD certification on QQ Music in 2025, achieving the milestone in just two minutes. It has been featured on Spotify’s Today’s Top Hits and trended on MelOn Realtime Search, further solidifying its global impact.

Critics and fans have praised AMORTAGE for its emotional depth and genre versatility. NME awarded the album 4 out of 5 stars, calling it “a stunning blend of melody and emotion.” Fans have also highlighted how the project showcases a new side of Jisoo’s artistry while retaining her signature charm.

To celebrate the release, Warner Records hosted a special event in Los Angeles, where Jisoo engaged with fans in a playful kitten-themed interview, reflecting her well-known love for cats.

Jisoo’s solo success comes as all four BLACKPINK members continue to expand their individual careers. Rosé released her debut solo album in December 2024, Lisa is set to drop her LP at the end of February 2025, and Jennie is preparing for her own release in March 2025.

With AMORTAGE already making history, Jisoo’s solo journey is off to a strong start, further cementing her status as a versatile and impactful artist in the global music scene.
