BLACKPINK‘s Jisoo has earned her first music show trophy for her solo single “CLICK” on the September 17 episode of Mnet’s M Countdown. The episode aired as a special broadcast featuring replays of past performances instead of the usual live show, but it still delivered a major comeback stage from LE SSERAFIM with their new single “Made My Night.”
Jisoo Takes the Win Over EVAN
At the end of the show, the two candidates for first place were announced: EVAN‘s “Death of Me” and Jisoo‘s “CLICK.” Jisoo ultimately took the win. This marks her first music show trophy for “CLICK” and follows her previous solo success with “earthquake,” which earned her first win on M Countdown in February 2025 with a total of 9,266 points.
The September 17 broadcast was a special episode featuring replayed stages rather than a live show, but the winner announcement was still included. Jisoo’s victory adds another milestone to her growing solo career.
CLICK Release Details and Concept
“CLICK” was released on September 4, 2026, at 1 p.m. KST through various online music platforms. The song serves as the first pre-release single from Jisoo’s upcoming debut full-length solo album. According to her agency Blissoo, the track captures an instinctive attraction between two people who know they should not be drawn to each other but “naturally click” anyway.
The music video for “CLICK” was directed by Joseph Kahn, known for his work with global pop stars including Taylor Swift and Eminem. The cinematic clip follows the eternal existence of a cyborg Jisoo, left behind in a deserted old theme park. The visual storytelling draws comparisons to Wall-E, Steven Spielberg‘s AI, and Blade Runner.
Billboard described the song as “a tasty pop treat” accompanied by a futuristic music video. The single follows Jisoo’s 2025 debut mini album, AMORTAGE, which included “earthquake” and “Your Love.”
