However, by the time the chorus plays, the girls are seen dancing together while the lyrics turn hopeful saying "We were born to be alone, But why we still looking for love".
BLACKPINK's collaborations
Only a few weeks ago, BLACKPINK released their song Ice Cream in collaboration with Selena Gomez. The K-pop band seemed very excited for the project as did Selena.
