The commemorative stamps for the 10th anniversary of BLACKPINK‘s debut will be issued next June 16 in collaboration with the Korea Post of the Ministry of Science and ICT.
The Korea Post commemorative stamps are mainly issued to honor significant national events or figures. It is rare for them to address living people other than the president, but BLACKPINK is the first female K-pop artist in this case, said YG ENTERTAINMENT.
This edition of commemorative stamps consists of 10 types in total, retracing 10 years of musical journey through images of all BLACKPINK album jackets. The commemorative stamp pack released simultaneously contains portraits of BLACKPINK and images of their main stages, thus increasing its collector’s value.
The commemorative stamps and packs will be available for purchase starting June 16 at general post offices across the country and on the post office website. An online pre-sale via the post office website will take place from May 12 at 7:00 PM until the 15th at midnight KST. For overseas fans, the pre-sale is available on the English, Japanese, and Chinese stores of YG SELECT as well as on the English website linked to the post office.
YG ENTERTAINMENT stated:
“It will be possible to discover in a new form the time traveled and the musical moments of BLACKPINK. Through the medium that the stamp represents, we hope that this will be a precious gift kept for a long time by the BLINK (fandom name) from all over the world.”
