BLACKPINK is one of the biggest K-pop groups around. As such, the members can make a lot of money from selling merchandise and touring. A large part of their income also comes from endorsement deals with international brands, such as Samsung, Dior, and Adidas.

According to IBTimes, BLACKPINK has a combined net worth of around $34 million.

Their individual net worths vary because of the work each member does outside of the group. Jennie, Jisoo, and Rosé all have similar net worths at around $8 million. Meanwhile, Lisa seems to be the wealthiest member with a net worth of $10 million. This could be because Lisa is from Thailand, so she has been able to work in both her home country and South Korea.
