BLACKPINK Ignites Pink Frenzy in Singapore on Friday; Fans Brave the Rain to Snap Up Merchandise

SINGAPORE, Nov 25 — Korean mega girl group BLACKPINK is set to storm Singapore this Friday, sending the entire island into a full “pink frenzy.” Tickets for the group’s three-night “DEADLINE” tour sold out instantly, while more than 100 fans braved heavy rain this morning to queue for the official pop-up store that opened at 11am.

BLACKPINK will perform at the National Stadium from Friday to Sunday, with tickets selling out within minutes when released months ago. Organisers announced a limited batch of additional tickets last Friday, prompting overwhelming response. Fans who missed out earlier are encouraged to check the authorised ticketing site for the final chance to purchase.

Fans Queue in the Rain as Pop-up Store Opens

The official “BLACKPINK WORLD TOUR <DEADLINE> POP-UP STORE” opened today at Kallang Leisure Mall, offering limited-edition merchandise, fashion items and collectibles. Despite heavy rain, fans started lining up before dawn.

Pearl Ng, a 16-year-old fan, arrived at 5:52am and said she originally planned to buy only two items, “but if I really like something, I might still call my mum to ask for permission.”

Another fan, 23-year-old Wong Shao Xuan from Woodlands, plans to spend up to SGD300 (RM952) on merchandise for himself and his friends, and will wear BLACKPINK fan apparel to Sunday’s show.

A fan known as TH rushed straight from the airport after arriving from Taipei, saying he was there to buy City Exclusive items for his wife. The couple will also attend Friday’s show.
