BLACKPINK “DEADLINE” & “GO” — UK Chart Debut at a Glance

BLACKPINK’s Complete UK Albums Chart History

“DEADLINE” is BLACKPINK’s fourth album to enter the UK Official Albums Chart — and their trajectory on it tells the story of one of K-pop’s most remarkable international ascents:

With BORN PINK making BLACKPINK the first K-pop girl group ever to top the UK Official Albums Chart in 2022, “DEADLINE” debuting at No. 11 continues their remarkable UK presence — even if the number is lower, charting at No. 11 in one of the world’s most competitive music markets is an achievement most global artists would celebrate.

“GO” — BLACKPINK’s 12th UK Singles Chart Entry

The title track “GO” debuting at No. 44 makes it BLACKPINK’s 12th song to enter the UK Official Singles Chart — a staggering number for a K-pop group in a market historically dominated by Western pop and UK homegrown artists. For context, most international non-English-language acts rarely manage even one entry on this chart.

The consistent ability to chart singles in the UK underlines BLACKPINK’s crossover appeal — their music reaches British listeners not just through dedicated K-pop fandom but through genuine mainstream radio and streaming consumption.

Why This Matters for K-Pop

The UK Official Charts are widely considered the British equivalent of the US Billboard charts — rigorous, transparent, and based on combined streaming, download, and physical sales data. Every BLACKPINK entry on these charts is a data-backed reflection of real UK listener engagement, making each new placement a meaningful marker of the Korean Wave’s reach into Western mainstream music.
