Two minutes and thirty-one seconds, five hashtags, and not one written word.

Ten years, and not one written word. BLACKPINK put the anniversary video on their own channel at 11:59 KST on August 8, 2026 — one minute before noon, which is a chosen minute rather than a round one.
Where a caption would go there are five hashtags. One of them is the date itself, #20260808, matching the day it went up. Another is #WITHBLINK, so the fandom name sits inside the anniversary tag rather than in a separate line addressed to anyone.
As of this update it reads 353,658 views and 150,095 likes. Those two numbers next to each other are the part worth looking at twice.
There are 15,645 comments as well, and the video runs 2 minutes and 31 seconds. Nothing else — no song, no date ahead, no line about what comes next — appears anywhere in the post.
Context for International Fans
Korean anniversary posts are pinned to the exact calendar day, which is why the date turns up as a hashtag rather than a sentence — #20260808 is doing the work a line of text would do elsewhere. Folding the fandom name into the tag as #WITHBLINK rather than writing 'thank you to BLINK' is the same instinct: the marking is the message, and it is left for the reader to unpack.
Why It Matters
Ten years is the kind of marker that usually arrives with a letter attached. This one arrived with none, from the group's own channel, and the restraint is the choice being made.
What to Watch Next
The post names no song, no release and no date ahead. Whatever follows the anniversary is not in it.
