Can I get some headcanons for kyle and/or butters with a reader that is accidentally intimidating. Like they're very tall and seem stoic and threatening but in reality they're just bad at talking to people lol
Yep! I did both, I hope this turned out to your liking!! <3
South Park - Kyle and Butters With a Tall and Intimidating Reader
Kyle
He’s very much allured by your intimidating aura
He’s usually perceived as pretty intimidating himself, so of course he’s interested
At first it’s just curiosity, so he just inserts himself beside you every now and again
Your quiet demeanor further intrigues him
In reality, you’re just not sure what to say to this boy that’s suddenly around you half the time
One day he asks for your name
You give it to him, and he tries to advance the conversation, but your meager responses aren’t exactly encouraging
But the interest that shines in your eyes clues him in
With a realization like a slap in the face, he determines at last that you just suck at socializing
A grin curves his lips, and it only grows wider when you smile back
You reach a silent understanding in that moment, one that you’re both grateful to finally have established
You exchange numbers, and the rest is history
Kyle isn’t exactly a socialite, but when you do go in public, you’re the scary couple
If people aren’t deterred by your towering heights, or your solemn faces, Kyle’s blunt attitude usually does the trick
But when you apologize for his rude remarks, sometimes people are charmed just enough to stick around a little longer
Then they’re pleasantly surprised (by you at least; in comparison to Kyle, you’re much nicer, if not a little awkward)
Kyle might get a little jealous if they end up getting a little too fond of you
Then he’ll crank up the crankiness to scare them off for good
You guys are essentially like that one alignment chart: “looks like they could kill you/looks really nice” and “is actually really nice/would kill you”
You’re “looks like they could kill you” and “is actually really nice”
Kyle is “looks like they could kill you” and “would kill you”
Butters
Butters was first compelled to introduce himself when he noticed you sitting alone
Being an unwilling loner himself, he sympathized
He didn’t even notice your scary demeanor
He just approached you one day as if you were as harmless as a bunny
Which you are, but most people don’t seem to think so
He’s so confused when you tell him that
“Why would they be afraid of you..? You’re so nice!”
He also doesn’t notice your social awkwardness
If there’s silence, he’s going to fill it; it’s just natural for him
He doesn’t mind at all, as long as you don’t mind either
He actually really likes having a listening ear
That’s why he loves being around you—he thinks you’re the best “conversation” partner
And eventually romantic partner :D
When you’re in social situations he’s usually the one to insert you both into a conversation, or otherwise find someone to talk to
He does get a little suspicious when people avoid you; he still doesn’t grasp that people are intimidated
Luckily this effect fades the longer you’re with him
He helps people realize that you’re actually really nice, and soon more people feel comfortable approaching you
Referring back to the alignment chart, Butters is “looks really nice” and “is actually really nice”
Despite people being less afraid of you, you’re still “looks like they could kill you”
That’s okay though; you’ve learned to use your scary demeanor to fend off bullies from your boyfriend 💪
Thank you for this request!! And thanks for reading, take care guys :]

Intro
Hello, lovelies! I'm Erika. As this goes on, you'll learn more about me, but I wanted to give a basic introduction.
I currently reside in Dallas, Texas. Been here for about 6 years so far but in Texas in general for 12 years. Before that, I moved around the country all my life, not settling anywhere. But I like it here for the most part.
I am 31 years old. Adjusting to life in my 30's has been...interesting. I don't feel 31. I still feel like a kid. Not too young that it's weird but just..I feel like I'm not a real adult. Idk maybe that's something I'll expand upon later.
I'm a black woman. Why is this important? Because there aren't many spaces for women like me. So I am creating my own. And I want it to be known that this is a pro-black woman account.
My interests and hobbies are all over the place. I'm in a season of self-discovery, so I'm constantly finding and exploring things that interest me. Also coming to terms with interests that I've hidden.
I'm a Self-Projected Projector. Human design is pretty awesome. It's aligned me and brought to mind my strengths. I'll share my chart later.
Other interests include South Park (adult animation in general), The Weeknd, kink/lifestyle, crocheting, natural hair and beauty, black twitter, and music.
My goal is to share my stories and uplift the best I can. I'll try to be as transparent as I can because who knows, someone might relate. I've been told I have a story to tell. We'll see lol

Having one of those those emotionally terrible nights that makes it hard to sleep, but so I was just scrolling through RedBubble and found...
This Craig alignment chart (design by potatotop because always credit the creators, Jesus Christ) which is probably one of my favorite things I've ever seen. I've been staring at it for so long but I still can't pick my favorite.

BTS Appointed As Special Presidential Envoys For South Korea + To Attend UN General Assembly In New York
South Korea’s president Moon Jae In appointed BTS as special envoys to represent the country!
On the morning of July 21, Blue House spokesperson Park Kyung Mi revealed through a briefing, “President Moon Jae In has appointed BTS as a ‘Special Presidential Envoy for Future Generations and Culture’ to lead the global agenda for future generations such as sustainable growth and to expand South Korea’s diplomatic power to match its elevated status in the international community.”
It was explained that the appointment of BTS as special envoys is part of the government’s public diplomacy initiatives to unite the diplomatic capacities of the citizens and thereby expand the nation’s diplomatic horizons. By collaborating with civilian experts who promote actively on the global stage, the government aims to strengthen the nation’s image as one that leads global discussions.
After BTS’s “Butter” topped Billboard’s Hot 100 for a record-breaking seven straight weeks, the group’s latest hit “Permission to Dance” replaced “Butter” as the No. 1 song on the chart this week. Mentioning this feat, the Blue House shared that the song’s message and the dance moves that incorporate sign language align with South Korea’s determination to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic through solidarity and cooperation with the rest of the world.
BTS will be attending the 75th United Nations General Assembly in New York, United States in September, in addition to other major international conferences, to spread a message of comfort and hope to teenagers all over the world. They will also be taking part in promotions to help solve global challenges related to the environment, poverty, discrimination, and more.
This will be BTS’s third time attending the UN General Assembly. In 2018, BTS gave an address at the launch ceremony of UNICEF’s Generation Unlimited at the 73rd UN General Assembly, and they were invited to speak at the high level meeting of the Group of Friends of Solidarity for Global Health Security last September.
Congratulations to BTS!

What I Learned From a Month of Praying to Mars
The planet Mars is not my friend.* I have been studying astrology long enough to know theoretically why Mars is important, and we have a decent working relationship when I'm in a crisis that needs an aggressive approach, but most of the time Mars shows up in my life as, frankly, stupid shit: Conflicts in my communities that are really unnecessary, injuries at spectacularly bad times, and the need to protect my boundaries from people who are more thoughtless than evil—which means they feel justifiably pissed off when I tell them to knock it off. To top it off, I have a history of being god-bothered by war gods, which is completely thematically inappropriate. I’m a Druid! Druids love peace. The ancient Druids separated armies on the edge of war, don’tcha know?
Recently, I had the opportunity to take Austin Coppock's class on planetary remediation. Planetary remediation is like physical therapy for difficult planets. The idea is that by bringing trouble planets' influence into your life in an intentional way, you can learn how to work with that energy more positively (or you can bribe the planet into being more friendly, depending on what you believe about astrology and fate).
I didn't have Mars in mind when I decided to take this class. (I was more interested in learning how to work with my Venus in Aries.) But I've been working with Mars the most since I finished the class. Partly, that's because Austin suggested a ritual that sounded really easy for me to implement: For a month, on the planetary day of Mars (Tuesday) at the planetary hour of Mars (roughly 2:30 my time these days), pray the Orphic Hymn to Mars.
"All I had to do was read a paragraph aloud once a week four times, and that would improve my relationship with Mars?" I thought. Sold!
I wasn't familiar with the Orphic Hymns before I took Austin's class, but I really liked the hymn he shared with us. It was basically a very formal request that Mars busy himself with bringing love, parties, and abundance into my life, instead of causing problems.
I decided that I would do a short ritual that included the Orphic Hymn to Mars on Tuesday at 2:30pm four Tuesdays in a row in April and May.
For the first two weeks, this practice was easy. And nothing happened. I considered giving it up, but I'd made a commitment, so I decided to stick it out.
Then, I noticed that I was starting to become reluctant to do rituals outdoors. It's springtime in Oregon, the time of year when most people like to spend every possible moment outdoors stocking up on vitamin D. This, combined with quarantine, meant that my neighbors, who are usually at work or school during the day, were suddenly much more likely to be outside during the times when I would normally do rituals.
My neighbors are mostly nice people, but they believe that fences don't really have anything to do with privacy and what goes on in other people's yards is everyone’s business. I also live far enough away from the urban heart of Portland that my neighbors are red truck driving, Conservative talk-radio listening, just-folks Christians. I already had a bad reputation for being a liberal, Prius-driving, transplant who drove into town with parking stickers from Berkeley, California, and stays home on Sunday morning, puts sigils on the front door, and has men in the house when my husband(?) isn’t home. It wasn't hard to imagine how they would respond if they were outside when I started spinning in circles in the back yard, making occult gestures, and talking to the spirits of the air.
I started to find reasons to put all of my rituals off. For a week, Covid was a valid excuse for my cowardice. I wasn't getting new material from OBOD, anyway, so why bother trying to keep up with my studies? I'll run out of work soon, I said, and just be stuck twiddling my thumbs. Anyway, there was a crisis on. I was just being kind to myself, wasn't I?
Then Tuesday rolled around. I stuck my head outside, and I heard one of my neighbors outside talking loudly on the phone on the other side of the fence a few yards from my ritual space. I had a choice: I could I keep my promise and do this ritual for an audience, or I could break a promise I'd made to Mars.
I've read The Odyssey, so I know what happens to people who break their promises to the gods. I don’t know what I believe about the relationship between the gods and the planets named for them, but I wasn’t going to risk it. I marched outside and very quietly and timidly cast a circle and called peace to the four directions. I took out my phone, opened the app with the hymn in it, and listened. My neighbor wasn't talking anymore.
I looked at the hymn: "...bloody wars fierce and untamed...mortal destroying King, defiled with gore...thee human blood, swords, and spears delight..."
Why had I decided to do this?
I braved a glance at the fence. My neighbor was right there. She would hear me no matter what I did. I decided that my best option was to pretend that I knew exactly what I was doing and had full confidence in myself.
I called on all my old, rusty theater skills, took a deep diaphragmatic breath and bellowed the hymn.
"MAGNANIMOUS, UNCONQUERED, BOISTEROUS MARS!"
A moment later, I heard my neighbor's door slam. Not a sound was heard from that neighbor's yard for the rest of the afternoon.
I finished the hymn and unwound the circle.
As I stood there, trying to will my legs to stop shaking, I thought of what Austin said about what remediation does. The first step to solving problems with a planet is awareness, he said. When you start working with a planet, the issues that you have with a planet will bubble to the surface so that you can see and address them consciously.
Remembering this, I changed my mind about ending the ritual where I had planned and cast the circle again. I called to the spirits I work with and talked to them aloud, extemporaneously about why I was doing these rituals and what I hoped to get out of them.
When I started talking, I thought my issues with Mars were simple. To me, Mars was a nuisance that only showed up in my life to bring discomfort and pain. While I described my issues with Mars, I thought about the ways I struggle to enforce boundaries, my fear of taking up space, my reluctance to compete with others for space even when they're pushing into space that is rightfully mine, space that I need to be safe or autonomous.
I thought of nightmares I've been having since the pandemic started in which I am stuck in a room full of people who keep hugging me and refuse to wear masks. The world is having a big collective conversation about personal space right now. How much do we need? How much space between people is enough? What do you do when others don't practice social distancing around you the way you think they should? What do you do when the people around you demand more space than you think they need? What do you do when there simply isn't enough space for everyone? What do you do when your very existence makes people uncomfortable...or angry?
I realized that my issues with Mars are exactly aligned with this world-wide conflict over personal space, and I'm learning that playing it safe and avoiding situations where your needs are going to make people uncomfortable isn’t enough. Sometimes you have to fight for your right to exist.
I wouldn't say that Mars and I are reconciled, but I don't see the red planet as a cruel, sword-wielding, maniac anymore. I realize now that I have lessons to learn from the god of war. I have work to do when it comes to enforcing boundaries and dealing with conflict. Insisting on my right to practice my religion in peace in my own backyard was a first step, but I am almost certain that this frank exchange of views with Mars isn't over yet.
*There are several astrological reasons for my difficult relationship with Mars. I have a day chart, which means that Mars is the malefic planet that I have the most difficult relationship with. Mars rules my south node, which means Mars is connected with past life trauma. And Mars is conjunct Chiron, Lucifer (and Ceres) in my 11th house and trine my Moon in Aquarius, which means the planet of the god of war is connected with present-life trauma and discomfort, too, while also getting tangled up with my ability to find peace and take care of myself. Grr.

BYE GUYS 🏃♂️💨 HI LADIES 👋😫 MWWWAHH 💋💋
hello <3 i’m cc, twenty1 from cst + my pronouns are she / her! i’m super super excited for this i actually have no thoughts ever and i can’t spell ever, either, but i’m enthusiastic about nari and about varieta and i am excited 2 be here. alright. love u guys.
MUSE H - ( kim yerim, cis woman, she/her ) nari chae has lived in naples, italy for eleven months. they’re currently twenty two years old and a housekeeper for vista laterale bnb. people tend to associate them with the ache of heartbreak without really knowing what it is, floating face down in the deep end of the pool to see who’d care, yellow fingernails on particularly sticky fingers + a perfect image to present to the world because you don’t even know who you are anymore.
﹟ ⠀ influences﹕
carl gallagher, shameless.
karen smith, mean girls.
margot, legally blonde.
haley marshall, modern family.
﹟ ⠀ basic stats﹕
birth name: chae nari
nickname(s) / alias(es): nana + ri / lee
preferred name: nari
age + dob: twenty two + aug, third
hometown: undetermined, once said manhattan once said chicago?
occupation: housekeeper + pickpocket + full time dumb bitch
ethnicity: korean
nationality: american
gender: cis woman
pronouns: she + her
orientation: demi sexual + demi romantic
faceclaim: kim yerim
﹟ ⠀ intraperson﹕
( + ) positives: charismatic, perceptive, intrepid,
( - ) negatives: thoughtless, impetuous, equivocal,
labels: the icarian, the bubble brain,
natal chart: leo sun, libra moon, libra rising
moral alignment: chaotic neutral
hogwarts house: ravenclaw ( i know... )
languages spoken: english + korean + italian + conversational french but in a bad way
exterior: just... clueless in the way that you can tell that she’s experiencing thoughts but refuses to acknowledge them. always sort of thinking of the most reckless thing to do and/or the most mundane, first grade-esque question in the world. can come off as both superficial and egoistic, because she is – just doesn’t care enough about people other than herself. allows herself to be a bimbo because old men love it and she’s excited to marry rich ( but also will never give a man the time of day ).
interior: theoretically, brainy, but in practice? technically yes because there’s a plan for everything, but these days kind of just stares off into space like she’s a widow ( because as far as she’s concerned, she is ). kind of conniving because there’s a reason she does everything, but nobody at the bnb is worth conning so she just barely does her job and watches bad things happen at the bnb without helping out <3
﹟ ⠀ dossier﹕ trigger warnings
the circumstances that nari is born into is :/ unfortunate. she is the youngest of five kids and kind of just hangs around while her family remains dirt poor and her parents try ( in theory ) to give their children good lives. but, while nari’s siblings are working hard and getting themselves on the right path, she’s busy sitting in the kiddie pool at the local park with pink sunglasses on, dreaming of a lazy life because – she’s lazy. her eldest sister dreams of becoming a politician, her brothers want to become businessmen and nari wants to be a trophy wife ... so.
anyway, her parents sort of turn a blind eye the first time she brings a wallet home and says “oopsies!”, meaning they don’t outright discipline her for being a thief. too bad, so sad – she gets caught once when she’s younger and that’s when she learns that her crying can get her out of anything. not only is she a notoriously beautiful crier, she can also be super loud and obnoxious about it and a screaming nari just :/ isn’t the way to go, so she learns all the skills she needs to learn when she’s growing up.
but, she gets caught again when she’s fourteen and her parents suddenly grow a conscience and send her to live with her scatter-brained aunt. aunt sissy isn’t even related to either of her parents, but she’s a family friend of a family friend and somehow nari ends up in a stupid rv with a great dane and a woman older than both of her parents. her outlook on life doesn’t really change, since from ages fourteen to sixteen, she watches aunt sissy finesse her way into fancy dinners and onto yachts.
anyway, when nari runs away at sixteen, she spends an entire year with a rich family in the hamptons because she pretends to be a stranded heiress from south korea :/ don’t know how it worked honestly, but it did and she’s better for it. she leaves at seventeen to live in nyc, somehow wrangles her way into a terrible apartment when she’s eighteen after spending a year sofa surfing. started a job as a housekeeper in a high end hotel and stayed there for ... a bit.
definitely was a little bit of a rat in nyc, pickpocketing and stealing for fun and for necessity. when she turned twenty one, was promoted to a concierge which she only really worked for a couple of months ( literally one month tbh ) before she surprised her s/o with a trip to italy because <3 romance <3 and then got to italy and was like “we should break up” so.
now she’s here, cried her way into the bnb and into a job, sorry to nico n nolan because she’s a nightmare. she’s still flat broke but pretends like she isn’t out of spite to muse i and refuses to leave because nari’s never lost a break up and she’s just too sexy to lose now ( her words, not mine )
﹟ ⠀ headcanons﹕
so, here’s the thing: nari has always been poor. her parents aren’t bad people, they’re just unfortunate and all nari could do as a child was learn how to pickpocket ( among other things ). unfortunately for the entire world, nari is really, really good at it. she’s good at pickpocketing and stealing and lying and crying on cue; she’s just all too good at playing the damsel in distress to lie and cheat her way through life – and since no charge has ever really, well, stuck, she hasn’t stopped.
genuinely, actually really smart but has never actually used her brain cell for anything other than crime – because, why bother? bottom of the barrel, she really never thought that she had a chance at getting into a good school anyway without burying herself in debt, so has spent her life just trying to build an underground syndicate while being way too self centered to ever have anything kick off; she’s literally so, so, stupid despite having a photographic memory and a surprisingly high iq. would rather be a dumb hot girl than a smart hot girl for some reason?
doesn’t really have anything to go back to outside of italy, honestly. had an okay-ish life in new york city, but the bills would barely be paid and there’s only so much that pickpocketing + stealing can do for a girl. she did used to have a job as a concierge at a high class hotel, but rich people treat poor people terribly and there were rumors that she had been stealing from guests; which, how scandalous, she would absolutely never! “i can’t even get the keys to work on the first try?”
﹟ ⠀ wanted connections﹕
everything plus angst and fluff and crack and spiderman memes <3
﹟ ⠀ conclusion﹕
i will be reaching out to plot soon just give me a second to find my brain.

It is very taken just four several years for Blackpink to become most significant girl bands in the world, having members Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa continuing to be able to smash new records along with forge new ground. These folks were the first K-pop girl class to play at Coachella in order to reach 1 billion Dailymotion views-now they’re the most-subscribed-to music group on the platform, as 2019, they broke several Guinness World Records together with the single “Kill This Like, ” which has had in excess of 312 million plays in Spotify and over 824 , 000, 000 YouTube views, a mere tiny proportion of the quartet’s billions of revenues, downloads, views, and admirers.

Or any this with just a few songs in their repertoire.

Currently, as they prepare to release their particular latest album in Summer, it may be time to ask: The way on earth did they do the item?
Excitement prior to Blackpink’s July 2016 debut had meant to a fever pitch, when they were the first girl set in seven years beyond YG Entertainment (home for you to K-pop legends Big Fuck, 2NE1 and formerly, Psy). There were big shoes to help fill: The reign with the trailblazing four-member girl team 2NE1 was over, in addition to Blackpink was expected to resuscitate the bold EDM go crazy sound they’d embodied. All their debut, Square One, ended up being an overnight smash, the particular insistent build of “Whistle” and cocky chorus about “Boombayah” making for a small but thrilling introduction.
With November 2016, their secondly single album, Square A couple, featured a pop banger (“Playing With Fire”), a acoustic version of “Whistle, ” and “Stay, ” a country-influenced track that will allowed them to spread their very own vocal wings away from all their “girl crush” concept (K-pop vernacular for a fiery search and sound that’s shown immensely popular with international audiences).
Though they were dubbed “the new 2NE1” during their novice days, some of their first hearings on Korean variety indicates bring into focus but not only Blackpink’s chaotically entertaining reputation but the determination to create their own identities. Vocalist Jisoo has become a face for magnificence brands Kiss Me as well as Dior; rapper and performer Jennie has branched available as a soloist and a powerful influencer; New Zealand-born Rosé’s particular vocal sound has found her on hits with regard to G-Dragon; and Thailand-born artist and dancer Lisa is a most-followed K-pop star with Instagram.
Then, and now, many people recognize the need for each other to carry out the group alchemy here is endeared them to millions. “I don’t think a specific new member should do more dancing as well as one member does considerably more singing. I think Blackpink’s relaxation is complete because of each one person’s energy, ” Jennie told Vogue Korea prior this year.
The long-standing imaginative and prescient vision of K-pop as a blinged-out, ultra-slick fantasy world is made by three labels: YG Entertainment, JYP Entertainment, and also SM Entertainment. YG is acknowledged for maximalist visuals and a hefty, club-friendly sound devised by simply in-house writer-producer Teddy Park your car, the man behind some of K-pop’s biggest, hookiest hits. With Blackpink’s 2018 “Ddu-du Ddu-du” (“DDDD” for short), these elements aligned to produce the irresistible pop package.
Achievements lay in the catchy se?alar refrain, the memorable finger-gun dance, and a gloriously increased video, but also in Blackpink themselves as aspirational yet emulatable, aesthetically fierce and not intimidating, killer onstage nevertheless adorable off it. Often the four-track EP, Square Upwards, would go platinum in Sth Korea, “DDDD” would arrive at gold in the U. S i9000., becoming their first billion-view video, and “Kill That Love” would make them typically the first-ever Korean girl party to enter the U. E. singles chart.
These milestones came via a fandom in which had grown rapidly due to the fact late 2016, but which will had to wait eight several months for 2017’s single “As If It’s Your Continue, ” then an entire calendar year for its follow-up, Square Right up. One release per year used to be standard in K-pop, if there were fewer groups dealing with for a share of a modest domestic market. Groups currently average two or three releases (known as “comebacks”) a year in a very bid to grow and maintain fandoms, but YG Entertainment, considered one of South Korea’s oldest K-pop agencies, remains unapologetically invested in less is more.
It’s not really a huge fail-safe plan-it draws continual fan criticism, petitions, along with boycott threats-but the old-school approach, in an era connected with oversaturation and instant prime, has created heightened desire in addition to demand. It’s turned just about every comeback into a global affair and has funneled the fandom’s streaming power into the types of headline-making, spreadsheet-melting numbers that contain seduced many a point executive.
Like many profitable musicians, Blackpink understands the capability in marrying the oceans of music and manner. Their innate understanding of model has made them hot residence, with the girls now front-row fixtures at Fashion 1 week. In September 2019, Jisoo popped over to London regarding Burberry, while Rosé wowed at Saint Laurent (and was also asked by means of Anthony Vaccarello to be it has the brand ambassador). Meanwhile, Jennie found herself next to Cardi B at Chanel, intended for whom she is a brand ambassadress.
In February 2020, Lisa-currently a muse for Hedi Slimane’s Celine-took a trip to Hong kong for Prada’s fall 2020 show, and just this week, placed a #WFH look to seducre her Instagram account (high-waisted light-wash denim, a Celine button-down shirt, and Bottega Veneta’s latest envelope clutch) this garnered more than 5 zillion likes.
Given their tested selling power-magazines have claimed needing to print quadruple reports to supply demand; their adventures sell out in seconds-the romance between the band and fashion’s leading houses will longer continue to flourish.
Blackpink seemed to be signed to U. Nasiums. -based Interscope Records at the end of 2018, a direct play for any American market and something not any South Korean girl class had tried since Girls’ Generation in 2012. Even with their skill and practical experience, Blackpink’s awkward, lackluster January 2019 performances on Hello America and The Late Indicate With Stephen Colbert ended up widely panned. But in the front of a vast, mostly K-pop-unaware audience at Coachella, often the universality of the group’s sounds bloomed, earning rave critiques. A high point was the great “Kill This Love, ” the title single from their completely new EP.
It’s rare the fact that members aren’t busy, regardless if there isn’t a let go to promote. They often turn to Instagram to communicate with their blended 128 million followers (including the main Blackpink account), and get focused on solidifying their A-list status as fashion building (such as Jennie’s new collaboration with luxury glasses brand Gentle Monster), marketplace mentors, and accidental virus-like queens (Lisa’s stint for the survival show Youth To you and her performance videos that became a Made it happen Work? meme).
And finally, 1 year after their last file, the wait is almost over. There are the forthcoming Lady Gaga relationship, “Sour Candy, ” for a laugh album Chromatica, and a July comeback from the band themselves. Could Blackpink eventually as the first K-pop girl set to break through in the West? An opportunity is there for the taking, although that means new successes need to be capitalized upon and previous strategies reexamined and polished. Now might be the time to get Blackpink to really be the emerging trend.
