on Kill This Love →Approved & live
"이 사랑을 죽여야 해" — "I have to kill this love" — is the song's core paradox: love isn't "killed" cleanly, yet the lyric frames cutting off a hurtful relationship as self-preservation. Released April 4, 2019 as BLACKPINK's lead single (YG/Interscope), its music video set the record for the biggest YouTube debut at the time with 56.7 million views in 24 hours, surpassing Ariana Grande's "Thank U, Next" (Wikipedia).
