Black Pink has succeeded both at home and abroad, but seems to be inadequate to take charge of selling out their tickets.

yeah its not like blackpink haven't sold out all their Seoul concerts (3 minutes), sea concerts, dome concert (they were the first kpop girl group to ever perform and sell out at Kyocera dome btw and it was 50 thousand tickets) and just recently sold out their american concerts (in under three minutes for some and 60000 tickets were sold), they also sold out their Australian concerts and their European dates are doing just fine. blackpink totally flop when it comes to ticket sales.
anyways, stan blackpink, an indie group.

I would be very cautious before burying YG honestly.

No

In order to become a Big3/4 company, you have to invest in other fields outside of your field (showbiz). BigHit has 2 (I guess) famous groups but their other artists flop (sorry). People seem to think that becoming Big3 is only based on how much you earn a year, but there's so much more to it.
Big3 have a lot of artists so they spend a lot more as well. They have investments in pharmaceuticals, tech and IT and so on and even have stocks there. BigHit still doesn't do that.

I'm so proud of JYP and Big Hit. They have come so far. CJEM has been on the rise for awhile. And SM is the Godfather of it all.

When it comes to YG, I've been saying that songs positions on charts is not what matters. What matters is if you have artist that investors feel are strong enough brands to invest in, YG doesn't have that apparently. Black Pink is not the phenomen that BTs is and Twice is the number one GG in Korea and Japan. Even during YG heydays it took BigBang and 2NE1 and Se7en and PSY functioning at ground breaking levels to have YG be Big 3. Unless you have BTS who were the 2nd/3rd best selling artist in the world, one trendy group that is not at the very top of the industry won't do it and this come back won't change the downfall that has been coming for years. Black Pink is sorta like KARA, the last mega group of a declining company. Even KARA's success in Japan didn't save DSP.
