Blackpink member Jisoo and former One Direction star Zayn Malik’s “Eyes Closed” is already breaking records! Marking her first collaboration with Zayn, Jisoo delivered a hit that quickly climbed the charts. The song made history when it debuted at No. 1 on the Official British Asian Music Chart, making Jisoo the first K-pop soloist to reach this milestone.

Eyes Closed starts with a poignant moment. The thrilling freefall and nervous anticipation of entering a new love without turning around have been captured in the duet, which is set to a large, genre-bending production.

As JISOO continues to dazzle audiences on BLACKPINK's Deadline World Tour, which has already sold out stadiums on multiple continents, the historic partnership takes place. ZAYN will kick off 2026 with his first-ever residency in Las Vegas, marking the beginning of an amazing year as he gets ready for his next chapter.

The singles Earthquake and Your Love, which she has been performing during her solo set with BLACKPINK, are the highlights of JISOO's eagerly awaited debut mini album AMORTAGE, which was released earlier this year.
