BLACKPINK’s JISOO Joins Hollywood Powerhouse WME for Global Representation

BLACKPINK’s JISOO is taking another major step in her international career. The singer and actress has officially signed with William Morris Endeavor (WME), one of the major talent agencies in the United States, for worldwide representation.

The news was reported on November 6, 2026, by U.S. entertainment industry publication Pollstar. The partnership comes as JISOO continues to expand her activities across music, acting, fashion, and global entertainment.

With WME joining her existing professional partnerships, JISOO is strengthening her international presence while continuing to develop her solo career alongside her activities with BLACKPINK.

JISOO Signs with WME for Worldwide Representation

WME officially confirmed that it had signed JISOO for global representation, according to its announcement carried by Pollstar on November 6.

Headquartered in Beverly Hills, California, WME is a major talent agency representing artists and professionals across music, film, television, sports, and other entertainment industries.

Its music-related clients include internationally recognized artists such as Bruno Mars, Rihanna, Coldplay, and Billie Eilish.

Through this agreement, WME will represent JISOO in global markets and help connect her with international opportunities. However, the specific contract terms and individual projects covered by the agreement have not been publicly disclosed.

Importantly, the signing does not mean that JISOO has left her existing management or record-label arrangements.

How WME Fits into JISOO’s Existing Career Structure

JISOO's professional activities are supported by several different companies, each with a distinct role.

• BLISSOO: The personal label established by JISOO in February 2024, through which she manages her solo activities.
• Warner Records: Her global music partner, following a solo record deal signed in January 2025.
• YG Entertainment: Continues to manage JISOO's activities as a member of BLACKPINK.
• WME: Provides worldwide talent representation, connecting her with opportunities across international entertainment markets.

This distinction is important because WME's signing does not replace her existing agreements. Instead, it adds an international representation partner to her current career structure.

JISOO Becomes the Third BLACKPINK Member to Join WME

JISOO is the third BLACKPINK member to sign with WME, following Lisa and Rosé.

Lisa joined WME in September 2025 for representation in film and television, supporting her expansion into acting and international screen projects.

Rosé also signed with WME in December 2025 for representation across her music career.

Although all three members are now associated with the same agency, their individual representation arrangements have different scopes. JISOO's latest agreement is specifically described as worldwide representation.

The development highlights how BLACKPINK's members continue to build individual international careers while maintaining their identities as part of the group.

JISOO’s Growing Solo Music Career

JISOO made her solo debut in March 2023 with the single album ‘ME,’ featuring the hit title track ‘FLOWER.’

The release achieved a major commercial milestone, becoming the first album by a Korean female solo artist to surpass one million copies in sales. ‘FLOWER’ also reached No. 2 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 1 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart.

In February 2025, she released her first solo mini album, ‘AMORTAGE,’ featuring tracks including ‘earthquake’ and ‘Your Love.’

She later collaborated with ZAYN on ‘EYES CLOSED,’ released in October 2025. The song reached No. 72 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 20 on the Billboard Global 200.

In 2026, JISOO continued releasing new music ahead of her first full-length solo album:

• September 4, 2026 – ‘CLICK’: The first pre-release single from her upcoming solo studio album.
• October 30, 2026 – ‘ADDICTED’: The second pre-release single. According to BLISSOO, the song topped the iTunes Top Songs charts in 28 regions following its release.

As of November 11, 2026, the title and release date of her upcoming full-length album have not yet been announced.

Expanding Beyond Music into Acting and Fashion

Alongside her music career, JISOO has continued to develop her work as an actress.

In 2025, she starred in the Coupang Play series ‘Newtopia’ and appeared in the film ‘Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy.’

In March 2026, she returned to television with Netflix's romantic comedy series ‘Boyfriend on Demand,’ in which she played Seo Mi-rae, a webtoon producer.

Her influence also extends into fashion and beauty. JISOO has worked with major international brands, including Dior, Cartier, Tommy Hilfiger, and Salomon. In 2026, she also participated in collaborations involving Off-White and Pokémon, further expanding her presence across fashion and popular culture.

These activities reflect the different areas of entertainment in which she has established a career beyond her work as a BLACKPINK member.

Final Thoughts

JISOO's signing with WME marks another important development in her growing international career. With representation from one of the major U.S. talent agencies, she now has an additional partner supporting her opportunities across global entertainment markets.

While her existing arrangements with BLISSOO, Warner Records, and YG Entertainment remain unchanged, WME's worldwide representation adds another dimension to her professional network.

As JISOO prepares her first full-length solo album and continues exploring music, acting, and fashion, fans will be watching closely to see what international opportunities come next.
