YG Entertainment had released a teaser for “Jump” earlier that day, with a short clip and a caption, “Ready to Jump?”

The agency has yet to announce the official release date of “Jump."

Aside from "The Girls" (2023), part of the soundtrack for Blackpink's mobile game, the new song will be Blackpink's first new music since the band's second full-length album, “Born Pink,” dropped in September 2022.

The Goyang concert kicks off a massive world tour spanning 31 shows across 16 cities.
