BLACKPINK Lights Up Jakarta: Highlights from the DEADLINE Tour

Share:

Jakarta once again turned pink as global sensation BLACKPINK returned for their two-day concert at Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK) on 1–2 November 2025.

Titled “DEADLINE,” the show marked the group’s long-awaited comeback to Indonesia after their Born Pink World Tour in March 2023.

The Jakarta stop is part of BLACKPINK’s world tour, which began in Goyang, South Korea, in July 2025 and continues across the United States, Canada, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, and France.

Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa brought explosive energy and seamless choreography to the stage, performing hits such as “Kill This Love,” “Pink Venom,” “How You Like That,” and “Shut Down.” Each member also showcased solo performances, proving their artistic growth after two years of pursuing individual careers.

Jisoo performed “Hugs & Kisses” and “Earthquake”, Lisa hyped up the crowd with “Thunder,” “Lifestyle,” and “Rockstar,” Jennie delivered “Like Jennie,” “ExtraL,” and “Starlight,” while Rosé closed the solo stage with “Number One Girl,” “Toxic Till the End,” and the global hit “APT” featuring Bruno Mars.

Between solo sets, the group performed fan favourites including “Pretty Savage,” “Whistle,” “Stay,” and “Lovesick Girls.” The encore featured “Jump,” “Yeah Yeah Yeay,” and “Kick It,” giving fans a final burst of energy and emotion.

Rosé greeted fans in Indonesian with, “How are you? I’m Rosé,” followed by Jisoo’s cheerful, “You guys are the best!” Their simple but heartfelt words drew loud cheers from BLINKs, showing the warmth between BLACKPINK and their Indonesian audience.

Rosé’s Satay Moment and Jakarta’s Unmatched Enthusiasm

Rosé became a trending topic after a viral video showed her eating satay backstage on the second day of the concert. The clip, uploaded by X account @rosespics, showed the singer giving a thumbs-up while enjoying chicken satay, visibly delighted.

Fans call this segment “Foodsé,” a tradition where Rosé eats local food in each country she visits. In Jakarta, she enjoyed fried rice on day one and satay on day two.

Many fans had jokingly predicted she’d eat seblak or martabak, but she surprised them instead. The moment sent BLINKs cheering at GBK as soon as the video appeared on the big screen.

BLACKPINK’s interaction with fans was a highlight of the show. During the Dance Challenge segment, concert-goers were invited to dance to BLACKPINK songs, with their moves displayed on giant screens. The scene created a sense of unity and celebration, as thousands of fans sang and danced along in the rain-soaked stadium.

The production itself featured striking visuals, pyrotechnics, and three massive LED screens. The split centre screen and two side panels gave audiences clear views of each performance. Though the set design focused more on vocals and choreography than elaborate stage props, the atmosphere remained electric.

Rosé even paused mid-song to hand the microphone toward the audience, letting BLINKs sing the chorus. She praised them for their passion, calling them “the most dedicated crowd,” especially as fans kept their spirits high despite the earlier downpour.
