Blackpink: The Movie (2021) - full transcript

How it all started? That's a big question.

I think everybody
has like a different start

to how they got to this one place

where we all kind of got together
to create BLACKPINK.

But me, personally,

I came through just a simple audition

and ended up practicing
at YG Entertainment

for about four years, I think it was.

I'm the newest member
out of all four of us.

All I remember is practicing a lot,

having a very strong drive,



and a big goal ahead of us.

It took a long time, but we made it

and we debuted as BLACKPINK.

YG's new girl group BLACKPINK
set a new record

by reaching number one

in a network television music program
in just 14 days after their debut.

They have 27 videos,

including the music video
for "DDU-DU DDU-DU,"

with hundreds of millions of views…

Setting various records…

Surpassing the global pop stars…

DAY 319

What is in store…

BLACKPINK is finally having
their first concert in Jamsil



in their second year since their debut…

-Hello, we are BLACKPINK.
-Hello, we are BLACKPINK.

BLACKPINK started off their world tour
with their first concert.

January 31st, 2021, BLACKPINK celebrates
the 5th anniversary of their debut.

They welcome fans around the world
with online concerts…

Our next guests are multi-platinum selling

and chart-topping K-pop girl group
you know.

Please welcome BLACKPINK!

BLACKPINK THE MOVIE

Fans around the world are looking forward

to seeing BLACKPINK in person
to celebrate their 5th anniversary.

I think those were really hectic moments.
Because it was our first time.

I'm facing the stage right now

and those were the seats for BLINKS.

There was a stage
that stretched out to the front

and we ran underneath the stage.

I think the most nervous moment is
when we walk toward the backstage

with the anticipation of meeting our fans

and performing for them.
I think that’s the most nervous moment.

You know, we haven't been able
to perform live for a while now.

And now that I think back at it

performing on stage is
one of the best parts.

I feel alive when I see our fans

singing along to my song and enjoying it.

That feeling of success like,
"Wow I did it."

"They’re dancing together like I am!"

When I feel that,
I think that’s when I feel most alive.

It’s upsetting that we can’t
have the fans watch the performance.

But I think it just makes us more, like,

you know, gives us more space
to look forward to that day,

and when that day comes for us,
we'll actually be in one room together.

That would be a very very special moment.

Wouldn’t there be much to talk about
when we meet? From now on?

So I'm looking forward to it.

BLACKPINK: THE SHOW

THE SHOW D-1, D-2

THE SHOW D-3, D-4

THE SHOW D-5

The Show.

THE SHOW D-4

Performing with the band
during the concert is

-definitely really great.
-What's next?

The energy is actually unreal.

All the instruments in the back,
singing live.

But the production is
so much different too, so…

I’m finally getting, "This is what I was
doing for two years," you know.

THE SHOW D-3

How do we go in here?

We're doing our best here
so that BLINKs can also enjoy

even the process of waiting
for our next performance.

Please look forward to it!

THE SHOW D-2

We worked really hard
to prepare for this concert,

so I hope you watch it
more than ten times.

See you soon, bye.

THE SHOW D-1

Let's go.

Hello.

Hi, I'm here.

What are we doing right now?

-Emcee Girl.
-Emcee.

-Okay.
-Yes.

We got here today for the rehearsal.

It's for tomorrow,
and what is this rehearsal for?

I believe it's a rehearsal for The Show.

THE SHOW D-DAY

BLACKPINK LIVESTREAM CONCERT: THE SHOW

I wanted to make it more perfect

because I was not satisfied.

It would've been great
if we had more time.

I’m so nervous.

LISA

BLACKPINK THE MOVIE

It was the most fun I had in my life.

A LISA FILM

And I had the best time of my life.

Like for the rest of my life,
I think I’ll continue to remember

that moment, that feeling.

A lot of things happened.
There were happy times,

and there were sad times.

I think those were the happiest times.

Oddly, when I try
to recollect difficult times,

I can’t seem to remember them.

I just erase everything
that has to do with difficult times

from my mind without realizing it.

I don’t think
I’m overly positive or outgoing.

I am a normal person
just like everyone else.

Every day I’m like this.
I’m like this every day.

I knew what I wanted to do
since I was young.

I believe I am a very lucky person.

I had a clear goal
to become a superstar in the future.

I worked hard to make my dream come true.

I try to think that I am happy,

without having to stress out too much.

I hope others could also think like that.

Life is super short.

PRETTY SAVAGE

JISOO

I guess I thought that
I am a lot stronger than I believed.

There are times when I feel hurt

or when I go through hardships,

but my way of overcoming those times is

preparing more for what's to come

or focusing on thinking about
how I can better move forward.

A JISOO FILM

Attitude towards life?

That’s a hard one.

Well…

I think I just live my life
enjoying every moment.

What I felt throughout the process is

that if I think too far ahead

about the things that hasn't happened yet.

I could also get anxious
and worry about it,

then end up missing many things.

So I try to live in the moment

and try to have fun, I think.

2019 WORLD TOUR: BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA

Oh yes!

It's almost time to meet all the BLINKs

from all over the world
who have waited so long.

I am very nervous,

and since you’ve waited so much,
I am going to show you the best.

Show us a lot of support and enjoy it.

SEOUL

BANGKOK

Thailand is also Lisa's hometown,

so I think it's more meaningful to start
our world tour in Lisa's hometown.

Starting from Thailand,
we're going to North America

and Europe
to meet BLINKs around the world.

I'm so honored and looking forward to it.

The phrase "BLACKPINK's world tour"
still feels very foreign to me.

I still can't believe it.

I prepared lots of fun stuff
for our concert

and want to do more exciting things
in different countries.

That's how I feel.

I hope many BLINKs around the world come.
It's gonna be fun.

What’s up, Bangkok!

It was very touching.

I think I'm very lucky to see them,
I could really tell how hard they tried,

from the beginning to the end.
I hope they take care of themselves.

I hope everyone stays healthy

because they have to go perform
all around the world.

We're going to visit
BLINKs in other countries too,

so please wait a little more.

We'll be there very soon,
and we'll show you a great performance.

Wait a little, BLINKs.

ROSÉ

BLACKPINK THE MOVIE

When you’re growing up you just feel like

there are no limits
to your goals and dreams.

I've had a very hard time here and there,

because it was quite challenging
as a 16-year-old,

growing up in a whole different culture.

It didn’t seem realistic at the time

but I just knew that
I would make it come true.

I actually envy myself as a trainee

because I do believe
that I was very strong-willed,

very stubborn, so sure about my future

and so determined to reach my goals

and I knew I would get there
for some reason.

I always have to think back on
how passionate I was towards music

and how much music

gave me a lot of the part.

And it turned out to become my life now

to the current day too, so…

Yeah, music is a big part.

Preparing for music in itself is
always a personal thing.

Being able to explore for the first time

what my music will be about,
and what I’m gonna be showing my fans is

a very rewarding experience.

During the preparations for The Show

I think I was also preparing
my solo project

I had just finished
the last shoot for "Gone,"

so that was the second music video
I did back-to-back.

To be honest, I think it's the first time
I'm actually saying this out loud

that it really was a challenge.
But at the same time

I was very, very grateful
for the opportunities that I was given.

It was a lot of fun creating, thinking,
and just making all things come to life,

all of my, our ideas.

I think I tried my best.

I don’t think I would go back
and change anything,

because I really did try
to pour my heart and soul into it.

JENNIE

I feel like as far as I remember

ever since I was a kid,
I’ve always been the shy kid.

I didn’t really like
talking in front of a lot of people.

I have a strive
on searching for something new inside

where I want to develop that
into something of my own,

and create something
that hasn’t been out to the world.

But when it comes to performing on stage,

I think I put on this entire new self,

where I’m not afraid.

When I’m performing,
I forget about everything.

It’s just all about me,

expressing myself, expressing our music.

I guess I do have a switch inside
somewhere where I turn it on and off,

but it’s not something
that I do purposely.

I think it reacts with music.

And the very first energy that I meet
whenever I first jump up on the stage.

I wanna say it’s just something
that I was born with,

because I’m proud of it,
and I'm happy doing it.

So yeah.

I think our identity is rather fixed.

I like to think that

we have a lot of pride
in having both colors, black and pink.

But because of that,

we’re still in the process
of continuously experimenting.

And fortunately, rather than
not being able to predict it,

we continue to go forward
in the direction that we want.

I just enjoy the whole process.

We all grew up in different cultures.

These various cultures overlapped
and a group was born.

But instead of forcing them into one

we worked as a group

without losing each of our individuality.

I think that rather emerged
as the color of the group BLACKPINK.

I think we shine the brightest

when we do what we love to do.

Now that’d be music, right?

When we are fully expressing
what we want to express,

that’s when we shine the brightest.

So I think it’d be great for us to show

a lot of things
that we enjoy doing in the future.

As we do this,
we’ve always done everything thinking,

"We could show something like this.
This time, we can show this."

I think we can
continue to show different sides of us.

We plan on continuing to do
what we want and show it.

Five years is not too short
and not too long of a time, right?

But a lot of different things happened.

There were happy times, and sad times.

I think those were
the happiest times of my 20s.

When we were on the tour,

I’d always feel hectic thinking about

which city we have to go next and such.

But after seeing this video,
I could see that we laughed a lot

and really enjoyed our time together.

When we first debuted,
we faced all kinds of experiences.

Back, then, there was a fear
about whether or not we were doing well,

feeling uncertain about some things.

When we had our first concert,

what we say on stage is
also a very important part of our concert.

I was really nervous, like,
"Let’s not make any mistake."

It’s already been a little over two years
since we debuted.

And to be able to have a concert

at such a big venue in Korea
in Seoul like this…

Even as I’m saying it,
I feel like we’ve improved very much.

And it was all possible thanks to BLINKs.
Right, everyone?

We’ve been together since day one.

I like to think we’ve grown a little bit
seeing how we’ve become more comfortable

with making a speech
and looking after one another

when we're on stage.

I like to believe that

we still have that energy
from when we were trainees.

I’m so moved,
thank you all so much for coming.

Since the four of us are in this together,
we decided to have a talk

on trusting each other more
and trying to enjoy everything.

Since then, it became more enjoyable
to take on new challenges,

we became more excited,
and began to look forward to things.

I think we grew up a little.

We are always here for you, BLINKs,
so please stay with us too. Thank you!

When the four of us are together,

we always laugh and talk
just like we did when we were trainees.

It’s just so fun to work together too.

-I think we’re the same.
-We are the same.

Now we don’t even have to say a word.

We just look
at each other’s eyes and know.

We just know.

Tell us, Lisa.

Yes. Thanks to all of your support

and love, I will strive to work harder

as Lisa of BLACKPINK, everyone.

I love you, BLINKs.

BLINKs.

We just finished the last US show. Yay!

Wow, I still can’t hear anything.

Is my voice coming out alright?

I’m so sad it’s already over.

I'm sad to see it come to an end.
It feels bittersweet.

Over the past month and a half

there were
many new and exciting experiences.

Still, I had a lot of time
to relax in different cities.

It was great.

We performed a lot,
and it was a meaningful time.

I think I enjoyed every moment
more than I thought I would.

It was a meaningful tour,
like a surprise gift.

What I felt the most during the tour was…

It really was a time for me

to rethink of myself
as a member of BLACKPINK.

I honestly don’t think we’ve changed much
just because it’s been five years.

We haven’t changed much,

but what's more reassuring is
having fans by our side,

who have always supported us
for the last five years.

There will be the sixth
and the seventh anniversary in the future,

and it feels like
we’re getting stronger over the years.

I really like the feeling of us and BLINKs

becoming a lot closer.

I can’t believe
it's already been five years.

I wish this movie gets
a little bit of our BLINKs'

frustration out, and

it’s a good memory
that we are also gonna have.

And we can look back at it next year
and talk about it, maybe?

It’s a new step for us,
I’m really glad that

we got this opportunity.

And I miss you guys.

I feel like I cried a lot
over the five years.

When I watch the videos
from my fans, I tear up.

I was so touched
when I just saw that video.

Even now as I’m talking,
I feel like I’m going to cry.

Because those were such happy times.

Five years ago,
we were five years younger,

and it was probably the same
with our BLINKs.

As we continued to grow,

I was very happy
to be able to share that time with BLINKs.

I miss them so much
since we haven’t been able to meet lately.

But because we missed each other so much,
when we meet again,

I’m so excited at the thought

that we’ll be able to greet them
with the biggest joy.

Thank you so much
for always worrying about us,

and above all, thank you that
you always show us love and support.

We miss you so much.

BLINKs have always been there by our side

no matter which year of our career it is,

showing us so much unchanging love.

That's what makes us
want to move forward further.

I hope you stay with BLACKPINK
all the way,

as if we are lifelong companions.

Thank you, and love you always.

Whenever we talk about how we feel inside,

I always have nothing to say.

I feel very shy about it, but…

What should I say?

There are so many things
that I wanted to say, but…

To keep it short…

Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for loving me,
as me, as Lisa of BLACKPINK.

When I was a kid I never imagined

I could be loved

by people all over the world.

Honestly, thank you
for always supporting me.

Yeah, that’s all.

I don't know how to describe my feelings
other than saying thank you.

Thank you BLACKPINK

for showing us that
we can do everything, what we love,

when we really believe in it.

We love you.

Keep going hard ladies.
We got you. We ride or die. We love you.

I will forever support BLACKPINK,
and thank you for everything.

Me too.

-You're a queen.
-We love you.

I love you guys,
and you guys are doing so well.

And I hope to get to see you again.

As we go up on the stage like this,

we can see our light sticks shaking
and hear the cheering.

It’s so pretty.

Some people set it so that it beeps.

You can set it like that.

Every time I hear it, I get so excited.
It's so encouraging.

-BLACKPINK!
-BLACKPINK!

-BLACKPINK!
-BLACKPINK!

-BLACKPINK!
-BLACKPINK!

We’ll cherish this truly precious memory.

Thanks to all of you supporting
and loving us wholeheartedly.

We’ll keep this memory
and strive to grow further as BLACKPINK.

Thank you.

Stay with us, BLINKs.

WE'LL STAY FOREVER

Just once more,

we’ll see you once more closely
before we go.

So pretty, our BLINKs.

Please support us
and stay excited till the end.

-We love you.
-We love you.

BLACKPINK FOREVER

JISOO, JENNIE, ROSÉ, LISA
YOU GUYS ARE TOTALLY AWESOME

THANK YOU FOR BEING THE LIGHT OF MY YOUTH

So may I make it short
and do it with a gesture?

-Suer.
-Okay, I’ll go with my gesture.

-Since everyone expresses differently.
-Right.

BLACKPINK, BLINKs, forever.

-Thank you for reacting.
-Hey, wait.

-Nice.
-What is this? I think it’s great.

Can you just finish like this?

BLACKPINK, BLINKs, forever.

Thank you.
Shall we try it together? Shall we?

Like this, BLACKPINK, BLINKs. forever.

Okay, five, six, seven, eight.

BLACKPINK, BLINKs, forever.

Oh, thank you guys!

So funny.

And, I miss you guys.
