About the Song

《Forever Young》 captures the fleeting intensity of youth and the desire to hold onto a single, unforgettable moment, presenting a more emotional yet powerful side of BLACKPINK. Released in 2018 as part of their first mini album SQUARE UP, the song contrasts its bright, almost euphoric chorus with darker undertones that reflect the anxiety of time slipping away. Created by TEDDY and FUTURE BOUNCE, with additional arrangement by R.Tee, the track blends melodic pop with subtle hip-hop textures, allowing both vulnerability and confidence to coexist. Under YG Entertainment, 《Forever Young》 stands out as a statement about living fully in the present, turning youth into a feeling that refuses to fade, even as the night comes to an end.
