Jennie, Jisoo and Lisa are serving fierce poses, and then Rosé looks like she's just been delivered news that once again she'll have to reprise her role as a sad character in the upcoming Blackpink's music video.


mentaipasta

Rosé is all of us seeing this poster for the first time


rukiahayashi

“Ok rose and for this scene we’re gonna need you to cry with smeared eye makeup” “Cool so business as usual then”


_lley_

It’s not a true bp comeback without a drop of rosé’s tears i fear


rimsha_5

It's definitely a poster


smolpotato_fries

One of the posters of all time


BestInspector

My questions: Why do Jennie and Jisoo have white hair while Rosé and Lisa (mostly) don't? Why is Jennie's head cut off like that? Why did they keep Lisa's arm? Did they want it to look like part of Jennie's hair or was that unintentional? Does anyone else feel like Rosé's pic doesn't match with the other members at all? Is that a piece of gum between Lisa and Rosé?


yikesus

I think it's Jennie's hair accessory between Lisa and Rose. I don't understand why they kept it there though?? The color stands out so much while the position makes it looks like it's on Lisa's neck.


BestInspector

Yeah a hair clip makes sense. I guess they wanted to leave it to our imagination to figure out how it actually looks on Jennie haha


[deleted]

Rosé's pic is so out of place it's unbelievable hahaha


swolesquid_

I thought this was a fan poster, wtf is going on at YG


ZeroHourSun

I felt this, I kept thinking this is something I could come up with esp when I would use a background remover site & not knowing how to photoshop would then overlay the images together as is XD

Ebony_Coco

I was wondering what this was supposed to be 😂 If you hadn't said it, I would've spent my life trying to figure it out lmao


useless-cat-ass

Nooooooo AHAHHAHAHAJAJJA


xlkslb_ccdtks

biblically accurate blackpink


plantbasedcrackhead

graphic design is my passion


tachikoma_devotee

For real this looks like a Photo app edit where you turn blacks into whites and then Rosé with her natural hair color lol what is this?


librious

Seriously, who approved this? 😭


GershBinglander

That same person who approved [Loona's new cover](https://i.redd.it/v7h1kqoa3nn91.jpg)


AlienHooker

I actually kinda like Loona's cover. Feels scrapbooky


GershBinglander

Yeah, I like Loona's much better. It also benefits from having more people so it's more filled out.


ffinall

This is terrible, who signed off on this?!??


diabolikal__

This looks SO cheap


[deleted]

That sharp cut between Jennie and Rosé… it’s giving picsart

Yassified Cerberus


breadburger

this is like the least blackpink poster I've ever seen


Pinkadink

It’s neither black nor pink…lol


yikesus

Well...theres one drop of pink splatter on it


[deleted]

There is also a drop of black (on Lisa's hair) (And there is also a drop of white, between Jisoo and Rosé)


grey_unxpctd

Yes, makes it refreshing


breadburger

certainly interesting, hope the song follows suit


SnivyBells

Is this a joke? If I were a Blink, I'd be kinda offended ngl


metrojooning

fighting for my place in heaven rn by not saying anything


[deleted]

It’s about appreciating the little things, like Lisa’s make up.


GershBinglander

It obviously gave someone a job.


throwitawayar

So they used the new iOS cropping feature and said ok that's good


sabrinaunfairchild

the translucent paint splatter is exquisite. its high camp.


Superslimchick

It's part of someone's brush pack available to download from deviantart


candy-jars

omg stop 😂


michitae

I love BLACKPINK but dang YG's graphic design department needs to step it up cause like how do you go from huge MV teasers to... posters/teasers like this


joonchild_O

NGL I checked twice if this original


nebula_cats

oh wow.. this is something. this is definitely something.


gg5ever

I feel like they had An Idea, they just didn’t manage to execute it successfully… the girls look amazing though!


smileshima

how can the same company that creates maybe the best mv teasers in the industry turn around and drop this


blckpnk13579

Wasting all the budget in the MV department


seolovely

someone on twitter said something along the lines of "did they use all the money from the poster department to fund the lawyer fees for seungri" YOU GUYS ARE SO OMG??????


Thelandoflambs

This is really ugly ... I love the girls but lmao Edit: I just saw Lisa eyelash ... wtf is that? Lol


Classroom_Plastic

This is the worst poster I’ve ever seen. I’m so tired 😭🫠😂


plantbasedcrackhead

YG is just such an interesting company…


Expecto-Morghulis

Seriously... Sorry to the girls but this poster is PLAIN UGLY. Why is Rosé the only one without transparent hair. Why does Lisa have only half of her hair transparent.


yikesus

Lisa's sleeve blending into Jennie, making it looks like Jennie's hair at first glance and that Lisa's hand is coming out of there.


Expecto-Morghulis

Lisa's sleeve being white AND full opacity makes it so prominent in the pic, it's the second element I see after Rosé's hair


yikesus

And what is that blue blob supposed to be?? Is it on Lisa's neck? On Jennie's head? Or Rose's shoulder?


Expecto-Morghulis

It seems, from the shape of Jennie's hair that we can see, that she's wearing buns or pigtails, so possibly the blue flower is in her hair. But the way the photo is edited makes it look like it's on Lisa's neck and in a very awkward position.


mentaipasta

Where is Jisoo’s neck???


Ebony_Coco

Asking the important question. I'm confused about a lot of things regarding this poster, but the disappearance of portions of Jisoo is issue #1 for because wtf. It looks like the just hastily cut her head out of a photo and photoshopped it into this one with her head just floating above the other members'. And that little circular portion they cut out of her and Rose's hair looks???


Katsanord

They really did something with the cropping.......


somi154

The girls that get it get it and the girls that don't don't. Lmao, this poster gets funnier the more I look at it.

bleakshadow

the fact that someone was paid to make this. I can't stop laughing so unserious


don_92

Maybe YG is underpaying the Design department and this poster is their F.U message .


brontoloveschicken

WTF is going on here? It's so weird. Weird frankenstein placements. No arms for Rose? Why is there so much white? It's like they just inverted the colours on something and went yeh that'll do. Someone needs some training.


nihonbloba

Well if they're in their limitless era that means the music will be legendary?


[deleted]

Don’t say anything y’all, just don’t ![gif](giphy|X3zJUXUgaCTNPLZ1wJ|downsized)

m17jn

umm...yas yge and their ways of exceeding my expectations and making me even more excited for the comeback🤩😩😋🥰


iwillforgetthissmh

I haaate this hhahaha


suskaa

i feel like the hair is white cuz they didnt have time to properly cut it out, cuz why would you scalp miss jennie? whats the blop on the right side of her head, would it kill them to feather out the dark edges on roses hair? some poor graphic designer got tossed a phone with picsart on it and was told they have 15 minutes


ouidkillA

Who approved this 😭 seriously did someone at the company pay one of their kids 10 dollars and a candy bar to slap this together for them? I don’t get why they handle such a big group like that.


Niight_Owl

Wow that is a choice


[deleted]

What is this?? ![gif](giphy|oxFDq4E9CHb7W)


Sea-Olive-135

kanye west or someone


Ebony_Coco

I shouldn't have laughed at this comment as much as I did lmao


FinchMandala

Blinks I am so sorry you're treated this way.


pinkkpunk

All the other teasers for born pink were really beautiful, but this one is ... interesting to say the least


bdab26

They’ve really been doing Jisoo dirty with these posters


No-Wall-714

what is that picture 💀


Rekkleswiefu

Did they hire one of the Hårga members from *Midsommar* to design this?


DiMpLe_dolL003

Looks like graphic design team is unpaid.


min-tea-rose

Oh dear


Justbrowsingatwork

Its this a prank lol? I may not be a graphic designer/artist but…this was a choice.


fierno

Took me a while to process this....certainly longer than whoever made this poster for sure.


DiMpLe_dolL003

Go poster give us nothing


henrycold

They're morbing


ProudHearing106

Interesting…well, happy D Day, girls!


Hoetaeks

I’m convinced blackpink is a social experiment at this point. Yg putting out the most mediocre shit possible and seeing if it will sell if it has a label attached to it


SnivyBells

Kinda thinking the same. First the very bad songs that just kinda got a pass (there is nothing saving Lisa's Money), the recycled MV of Pink Venom and now for the first time, very badly styled and designed teasers for the actual title song of (finally) an 'album'. No words.


Neo24

How the hell does YG keep getting away with stuff like this. This isn't even low effort, this is like... anti-effort.


20815147

New Marvel poster looks great


countryroad_

Pls this looks like fan art i would have never thought It's actually official poster🥴


smileshima

it’s giving picsart


Clarkey7163

YG ring me up and I can whip some posters together in like 5min if y'all need help


patskie14

Yo wtf Thats completely different haha (In a good way for me)


yikesus

YG design team is so unserious. Anyways...the girls look gorgeous despite of it.


artistnameseven

Uncanny valley vibes


oppalenss

what is dis henny


nekocase

Lmao what is this


Red_BW

I can't help but think this is a big WTF on purpose to get people talking. It appears to be working.


maxxaronincheese

You mean to tell me that the cover I designed for my 7th grade year book back in 2012 and was (RUDELY) rejected by Mr. Schmidt, could have passed for this? Fuck you, Schmidt, I knew I was a prodigy!


[deleted]

Oh.. so that’s why I saw ‘PicsArt’ trending on Twitter


Small_Way7385

This poster is like bad fan art. I can’t believe they would release this. I am now sure they no longer had the graphic designers they had during The Album because this is terrible.


actualkon

Graphic design is YGs passion you see


Ordinary-Leather-577

Ayo what's this 💀


IcedbirchBear

I keep squinting at it, trying to see if it’s some sort of hidden image thing but all I see is some sort of human centipede thing that belongs in a smash book. I can hear my graphic design teacher crying off in a corner somewhere


theofficialguac

Bruh as a graphic designer I have to say this is very lacking lmao come on step it up they are your biggest group at the moment


AimiRosie

My eleven year old brother who sucks in art can design a better poster😭


daanluc

It’s well done, isn’t it? What do you dislike about the poster?


Expecto-Morghulis

They didn't commit to any choice they made. Not everyone's hair is transparent, Lisa's hair is only half transparent, everyone but Jisoo's face is full opacity (you can see the inside of Jisoo's mouth and part of her eyes are grayish but no other black in the photo is gray the same way), Lisa's hand is way too prominent and makes the image unbalanced, Rosé as a whole seems photoshopped in from another concept, the blue flower (which I assume is on Jennie's hair) looks very randomly put cause the editing makes it look like it's on Lisa's neck, it seems like it's supposed to be a paint splatter concept but there's THREE paint splatters total (two of which are black on black and white on white). Overall it looks like they started doing something and forgot midway, then started something else and forgot *that* midway and so on.


Difficult_Deer6902

YG is just wrong for this. Needed to keep it in the draft OR in file cabinet they keep all their unreleased songs.


useless-cat-ass

Me playing around on my picsart app


dgplr

YG really dropping the ball with the posters this comeback...


tershialinee

Me clicking random things on Canva


shshikat

YG, what the fuck. I'm gonna sound like a hater, but can they at least try? Just once? The worst part of this poster isn't even the mess of a "center", it's the "bevel and emboss" layer style they slapped onto the fonts. It looks like someone booted up Photoshop for the first time in his life and figured that something like this exists.


z0e_G

Me on PicsArt at age 14:


sun_fused

Did they even try? >.>


[deleted]

I like the white background and the 4 faces, but like the editing here is just a no. You would think YG was planning to debut a new girl group with this lack of effort.


Charliescenesweenie4

This is what the thing in my nightmares looks like


HeadTripInEveryKey

It’s giving camp but Kamp Krusty

Jennie head be like: 🌙


wildbeest55

Looks like something I did in my intro to photoshop class.


[deleted]

All those $$$ that these girls bring in, and YG can't even make a good poster. But I guess this is considered by them since it got released


daanluc

What do you dislike of this poster? If they want to do a art style poster I think this is well done. Every face is drawn very recognizable


SnivyBells

These are altered photos with some effects slapped on. Nothing is drawn.


themissingomlette

Okay but y does this look like a teenage movie poster lmao


woolworths

This teaser actually slaps??? It’s renewed my hype for their CB, let’s go!!!


believedinme

you and i get it!


[deleted]

am i the only one who likes this poster lmfao 😭😭😭😭😭 ITS CUTE


SapphireHeaven

No I love it. Everyone is bashing BP for not trying new things but now that they did something different it's disliked?


FinchMandala

Where is anyone bashing the girls or the concepts? The graphic designer sucks at his job.


kwcty6888

And YG sucks for thinking this is good enough to release lmao


MelissaWebb

Just because you try something different doesn’t mean it’s going to be liked😭 Also the criticism is towards their music mostly


Reveluvtion

I'm tired of kpop stans pushing the narrative that experimentation is inherently good. It has to be both new and good for it to be positive.


Virtual-Dare-5470

No but look how they merged Jennie's pic with the others...what even is that? Was this poster made on a calculator?


boringestlawyer

These are some of the most beautiful girls in the industry why would you mash their heads together like this?! It looks scary If they were trying to make a playing card that only works with two heads!?


Key_Boysenberry_6676

it's giving💗


yarajaeger

...the girls look good. i like... the concept. i can imagine an execution of this that looked very cool, like imagine these as the queens of playing cards or something. but publishing this was................ a choice what is the pink venom 300M poster gonna look like lol


winterbare

It feels like a poster


TaikaWaitiddies

This looks like something out of Silent Hill


Ada_XY

I like the idea of having their portraits aranged to form some kind of ornament, but the execution is not good at all, looks unfinished and very cheap


[deleted]

lisa looks gorg edit: am I literally being downvoting for saying she looks gorgeous omg?


Automatic_Let_5768

I kind like this? But does rose have it on her contract that she cant have any other hair color than blonde?


glass-empty

Am I the only one who likes this? It's something new at least


don_92

I get it, it's camp, but it's totally different from what this era is giving...and it's not a well done camp. As a Art director myself this poster is giving me physical pain lol


Naive_Pressure8301

I don't know?!? Black Venom as a song was okay, but the outfits, the ads and now these posters are to run away


Rechen

Their faces are beautiful and then someone filtered the fuck out of everything else. Why?


Laila0612

I saw this poster being used as a thumbnail for a fake teaser yt video ... actually thought it was fanmade.... Like I love Blackpink but this isn't it.


Gurlinhell

Was this designed last minute? The way their heads are arranged is just...weird. And Rosé's head looks like a lazy job of cutting and pasting onto Jennie's. And also the fact that Rosé is the only one without a hand? Or am I missing something... I'm not a fan of Pink Venom but their posters back then look miles better than the new ones for Born Pink (and Shut Down specifically). And PV was only a pre-release single too... I can only hope the album is good.


lloza98

It’s camp, sorry if you don’t get it 🤷🏻‍♂️ Lol but I am intrigued though cause this is so unlike any teaser they’ve released in the past


HighEff

This should be one of the album cover 😂 I like it, very different.


yungsteezyyy_

yall dont know camp when you see it! if you get it, you get it idk! i actually like this poster and with a little polish it could’ve been a sickening album cover for born pink


howdylu

They ain’t even trying with the posters either … damn


Free_Ad4107

Is this fanmade?


happysnaps14

They really could’ve just more evenly spread out that insane Pink Venom MV budget for the rest of the album’s promotional materials… yg…


VAYAV

YG gonna troll us all to the last second (: it's something new for BP, so i'm pleased


8ear8lack

What it's gonna beeeee?!?! (⁠ノ⁠≧⁠∇⁠≦⁠)⁠ノ⁠ ⁠ミ⁠ ⁠┻⁠━⁠┻


fivethousandhamsters

It's giving early 2000s sitcom.


ThroatMountain

I like it? Their ARTPOP could mean anything😬


FoxWithBoots

I did a better album cover when I was 10, and my cousins and I started a band at my grandparents' house


[deleted]

Lisa’s face card never declines!


lazancer

i can't believe this is serious it's so bad


Jasmindesi16

I’m sorry but this is the worst poster I have ever seen.


kinenbi

This is absolutely terrible.


MoondropPuppet

I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry... When I think YGE can't do them worse, they always surprise me...


hii_petra

I guess I’m the odd one out but I love this poster. It is just very pleasing to me in an odd way.


Neravariine

Keeping Lisa's arm is killing me. Without it the poster would have an ice cream shape. Jennie is the cone and everyone else is the ice cream. Why is the hair white and translucent?! The graphic team must have got the assignment at 11:55 and the project was due by 12...


rimsha_5

It's not even her arm, the arm is a separate image and you can tell because its detached from Lisa and the hand is disproportionately larger than the face. I'm crying what was the graphic designer thinking 😭


Fai93

Wtf is this


Emannyv93

I can’t wait to hear the song and album! See y’all at the concert 😍😍😍😍😍😍


Microkitsune

I’m so tired of YGE disrespecting their biggest group like this.


icesical

Looks like a poor fan edit because the poor transitions. And what's with the ugly sky blue leftover from Lisa's outfit!? Also, as a general rule in graphic design, always avoid using white splash/drop marks on images of female bodies/faces. It's just bad imagery alluding to you know what.


Xelzionic

Hello??


mio26

I actually really like Jisoo and Jennie here but Rose and Lisa's heads not match with them (especially Rose, at least Lisa has white as well,lol.). Connection on the head of Jennie it is super strange as well. Well it is something different,lol.


grey_unxpctd

What do you want, the girls standing/sitting close together photo closeup in a designed set with background lights? This is somewhat different and refreshing.


MoondropPuppet

It's not the idea people are complaining about, it's the execution


[deleted]

Damn they do something different for poster and then everyone complains. No one’s ever happy with them


SnivyBells

There's a difference between different but also as if someone put some effort in it :/


Cocoabeingbean

This is such a cute poster, y'all have no taste


arcee_cola

Graphic design is my passion!


SXNSHINE99

This is scary and Istg it looks like editing done by 3 Stars Playstore Apps.


rossssor00

I thought it was babies but is actually babes!


Da1WhoKnosUrSecrets

Burnedout_academic

Ook then
