What you need to know
Blackpink The Game: a mobile game linked to the South Korean group Blackpink, in which the player becomes the group's producer, with outfits to customise and income from in-app purchases.
Set for exams in 2027 only. The game ended its service on 31 August 2026 but stays a set product for 2027, with the exam set so that students aren't disadvantaged; for 2028 it is replaced by Lego Fortnite.
Media language and representation: the game's design, its hybrid of music and game genres, and how it represents the group, gender and celebrity.
Industries and audiences: the global K-pop industry and the group's label, YG Entertainment, convergence between music, video and games, and fans' identity and participation.
