Blackpink’s Jisoo unveiled her solo agency, Blissoo, for her future solo activities.

“I’m excited to share my new start with Blissoo,” Jisoo said in an Instagram post, uploaded both on her personal and Blissoo’s official Instagram page on Wednesday afternoon.

“Stay tuned for what’s to come, as I’m dedicated to bringing joy and happiness to each and every one of you.

“Please continue to shower your love and support for Jisoo with Blissoo and also for Blackpink. Thank you.”

Blissoo is a combination of bliss and Jisoo, symbolizing “Complete happiness [with] an artist whose charm unfolds like a precious gift,” the agency explained.

It was reported in early January that Jisoo is expected to kick off her solo career with her brother, Kim Jeung-hoon, who is the CEO of the infant health food company Biomom.

YG Entertainment's contract with Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa of Blackpink expired in 2023. The four members agreed to continue their group activities with the agency but did not re-sign for their solo pursuits.

Jennie founded her company Odd Atelier (OA) with her mother last November and announced the news on Dec. 24. Lisa too, founded her own management company Lloud on Feb. 10.
