On May 21 (local time), BLACKPINK took its ongoing world tour 'IN YOUR AREA' to Manchester Arena, where Ariana Grande's concert was attacked just two years ago.
BLACKPINKFor the concert, some modifications were made in respect to the victims of the bombing attack.
BLACKPINKAt the end of the event, a message was being displayed on the screen:

BLINKs, thank you for being with us tonight.
It is a privilege to be performing here in Manchester, especially at this time.
We send our love and prayers to the friends and families who fought through the hard times.
We are here for you. #OneLoveManchester
 
BLACKPINK and the production team also made sure to do whatever they could to prevent any unnecessary triggers by making some changes on the set list.
BLACKPINKThe members changed lyrics of 'WHISTLE' from "blow up" to "glow up", changed the choreography of 'KILL THIS LOVE', and 'DDU-DU DDU-DU' was entirely being removed from the set list.
 
Meanwhile, BLACKPINK is scheduled to bring 'IN YOUR AREA' to Berlin, Germany on May 24 (local time).
