In the wake of BLACKPINK’s sensational show in Hong Kong, a fleeting remark by Jisoo—’Who knows when we’ll be able to use this again?’—has sparked a flurry of theories among fans. Some worry it signals an upcoming hiatus or worse, disbandment, while others take it as an emotional response marking the end of a remarkable journey on tour.
A short comment from BLACKPINK’s Jisoo has sparked fresh worries among some fans about the group’s future. In a behind-the-scenes moment shared after the group’s final show in Hong Kong, Jisoo looked around and said, “Who knows when we’ll be able to use this again?” Fans clipped the line, reposted it, and began debating what she meant. Some read it as a sign of a long pause ahead. Others say it sounded like a simple reaction to the end of a major tour and nothing more.
BLACKPINK disbandment fears after Jisoo’s comment
In a report from Koreaboo, the quote spread fast, and fans argued over the weight of the words “Who knows.” One fan wrote that it meant the group would be apart for a long time, saying they were “not gonna be together for a LONG LONG I MEAN LONGGGGGGGGGG TIMEEEEEE but not disbanding.” Another pointed to the concert mood and brought up Rosé’s earlier words about how the feeling in the venue would not last forever.

The clip also pulled in broader complaints about the group’s management. One user claimed the comment suggested the members felt worn down by how their company runs things. Another fan joked about people hoping to gain control of the group’s trademark and music rights if the group ever separated.Still, plenty of fans pushed back on the most extreme takes. They said Jisoo sounded emotional, not strategic. The group had just finished the six-month ‘Deadline’ world tour, and the members appeared stunned that it was over. In that context, the line “Who knows when we’ll be able to use this again?” read more like a goodbye to a moment than a goodbye to the group.The debate has continued online because the quote is short and open-ended. Some fans hear uncertainty and assume the worst. Others hear a tired, honest reaction to the end of a long run. For now, fans are left parsing a single sentence and projecting their hopes and fears onto it, while the conversation keeps rolling across social media.
