BLACKPINK's Jisoo is set to release her second solo extended play (EP), AMORTAGE, scheduled for release on February 14, 2025. This four-track EP marks her first major project since establishing her own label, Blissoo.
The EP will consist of four tracks titled Earthquake, Your Love, Tears, and Hugs & Kisses, as announced by her label on February 3, 2025. Notably, the K-pop idol contributed to both the lyrics and composition of all four tracks, collaborating with producers The Wavys and co-writers such as Jack Brady and Jordan Roman.
The title AMORTAGE is a fusion of 'amor,' the Latin word for love, and 'montage,' reflecting the EP's exploration of the emotional stages of love and the defining moments of a relationship. In the lead-up to the release, the K-pop star shared various teasers, including a bold black cover art that offers a visual glimpse into the essence of AMORTAGE.
