BLACKPINK’s JISOO has hinted at the release of a surprise duet this month.
On Monday (Oct. 6), she unveiled a mysterious teaser image on social media, featuring a shadowed male silhouette standing behind her, with the word “EYESCLOSED” written across the frame — suggesting an upcoming collaboration. “A duet is near,” the caption reads. A second post brought the shadowed male closer to the forefront, with the caption: “two voices, one orbit. coming soon.”
The mysterious collaborator has been revealed to be Zayn Malik, a former member of One Direction.
In the teaser, JISOO stands in the foreground while the male figure looms behind her — his back turned, adding intrigue to the release.
Zayn was previously seen attending BLACKPINK’s New York concert on July 27, accompanied by his daughter, Khai. After the show, he shared a photo from the audience with the caption:
“@BLACKPINKOFFICIAL THANK YOU 🙂 ME & KHAI LOVED IT,” sparking curiosity about the connection between the two artists.
The upcoming duet will mark JISOO’s first new music release since her solo EP Amortage in February, which featured tracks like “Earthquake,” “Your Love” and “Hugs & Kisses.”
JISOO is currently on BLACKPINK’s Deadline world tour, which began in Seoul in July and will resume in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, on Oct. 18 following a brief break after the group’s London shows in August.
