A new single and a new symbol for Jisoo fans
BLACKPINK member Jisoo will release her new digital single ADDICTED on October 30, 2026, at 8 a.m. Korean Standard Time, following an October 24 announcement through BLISSOO, the agency managing her solo activities. The first promotional images pair purple storm clouds with a heart shaped around a lightning motif.

The music announcement arrived alongside the introduction of her official solo light stick, an illuminated ice cream cone in purple and white. Sales are scheduled to begin through the JISOO app on October 26 at 11 a.m. Korean time, four days before the song arrives.
Together, the releases give fans two dates to watch: one for a physical item they can use to support Jisoo, and another for her next recording. The single follows CLICK, released in September, as she develops her music career alongside her work with BLACKPINK and her acting projects.
The campaign has already spread across several of her channels. BLISSOO shared artwork and a countdown, Jisoo posted a short message on Instagram, and her official YouTube profile adopted the new imagery. Links to save the song ahead of release are also open.
When will ADDICTED arrive?
ADDICTED is scheduled for Friday, October 30, at 8 a.m. in South Korea. For listeners in western Indonesia, including Jakarta, that is 6 a.m. WIB on the same day. Both times refer to the same release, with South Korea two hours ahead.
The October 24 announcement leaves six days between the first teasers and the song's arrival. Jisoo, the singer and actress, kept her Instagram message brief:
1030 Y ADDICTED!
The date, title and release time are confirmed details of the campaign. The song's genre, production credits, lyrics and any accompanying music video plans have not yet been announced.
A stormy change from CLICK
Purple dominates the ADDICTED artwork, which uses storm imagery, gothic lettering and a distinctive lightning heart. An animated teaser carries the same motif, giving the campaign a recognisable symbol even before listeners hear the track.
The visual direction contrasts with the colourful carnival concept associated with CLICK. Where that earlier campaign leaned toward a bright fairground atmosphere, the new material presents a darker, more mysterious setting. The contrast is a visible change between two releases arriving in consecutive months.
Some fans online have compared the lettering and mood to Charmed, the television series about sisters who are witches, and to teen horror from the early 2000s. Those comparisons describe how viewers are responding to the images; BLISSOO has presented the campaign through its artwork and teaser rather than a detailed explanation of the concept.
Jisoo's updated YouTube profile extends that look beyond a single announcement post. Fans moving between her social accounts and video channel encounter the same colours and symbol, while the countdown keeps the release date at the centre of the promotion.
How the single fits into her solo plans
ADDICTED follows September's CLICK and comes as Jisoo works toward her debut solo studio album. CLICK has been described as an advance release from that project, placing the new single within a period of closely spaced solo music activity.
A digital single is a song released through online music services, rather than an announcement that a complete album is arriving at the same time. Fans can therefore expect ADDICTED on October 30 while awaiting further details about the larger album project.
The September release and October follow-up give listeners successive opportunities to hear Jisoo outside BLACKPINK's group recordings. Her solo work also gives her a separate set of images, songs and promotional choices through which to build an individual identity.
The immediate change is concrete: listeners who followed CLICK now have another release date, while fans following her broader music plans have a new song to anticipate before the studio album.
An ice cream cone becomes her concert accessory
Jisoo's solo light stick takes a more playful direction than the stormy ADDICTED artwork. Its design resembles a waffle cone topped with two illuminated scoops, with a lilac or purple scoop above a white one.
A light stick is a handheld light that fans bring to concerts and other events to show support for an artist. BLACKPINK already has a group light stick. This new product gives Jisoo a design of her own for her solo activities.
Jisoo is the second BLACKPINK member to introduce an individual light stick, following Lisa. The design adds a physical symbol to her solo work, separate from the shared accessory associated with the group.
The product uses three AAA batteries and comes with a wrist strap and an accessory shaped like a swirl of cream. Its packaging continues the ice cream theme with a cone design and purple accents. Promotional wording includes the slogans Here's the Scoop and Made to shine, never to melt.
The lilac colour connects the light stick visually with the purple single campaign, although their moods differ. The accessory uses a familiar dessert shape, while ADDICTED centres on lightning, clouds and gothic lettering.
What fans can do before release day
Sales of the light stick are scheduled to open in the official JISOO app at 11 a.m. Korean time on October 26. Purchase links are being arranged separately for customers in South Korea and international buyers, directing the two groups to their respective sales channels.
Music fans can also use the available pre-save links for ADDICTED. A pre-save lets a listener ask a participating streaming service to add a release to their library when it becomes available. It gives fans a way to prepare for release day without waiting for the song to appear in a search.
BLINKs, the name used by BLACKPINK fans, have been circulating the teaser images and countdown on social media and encouraging others to save the track. Their activity is helping spread the announcement during the short interval before October 30.
The two scheduled launches serve different purposes. October 26 opens access to the physical fan accessory; October 30 brings the music. Fans interested in both will need to follow the app's sales opening and the song's separate release time.
The dates to watch
The rollout brings together an earlier song, a new announcement, a merchandise launch and the next digital release. The timetable is:
- September 2026: Jisoo releases CLICK, ahead of her planned debut solo studio album.
- October 24, 2026: She announces ADDICTED through BLISSOO, shares the first teasers and introduces her solo light stick.
- October 26, 2026, at 11 a.m. KST: Light stick sales are scheduled to begin through the JISOO app.
- October 30, 2026, at 8 a.m. KST: ADDICTED is scheduled for digital release, equivalent to 6 a.m. WIB.
October 30 is the next musical milestone. The first campaign images establish the single's visual identity; release day will bring the recording itself and allow listeners to hear how it follows CLICK.
