"Lovesick Girls" peaked at number 2 on the Gaon chart in South Korea. Elsewhere, the song has peaked at number two on the Billboard Global 200 and number one on the Global Excl. U.S., and topped charts in Malaysia and Singapore. It has also peaked at number 59 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and figured within the record charts in other 14 countries. The song was certified platinum in South Korea and gold in Japan. An accompanying music video for the song was directed by Seo Hyun-seung and uploaded onto Blackpink's YouTube channel simultaneously with the single's release. It garnered 61.4 million views in its first 24 hours, becoming the sixth biggest 24-hour debut for a music video. The song was performed with "Pretty Savage" on several music programs in South Korea including Show! Music Core and Inkigayo.
Background[]
Starting from September 22, the group's label uploaded various teasers for each member on their respective social media accounts.[4] The song's name and release date were announced on September 28, 2020.[5] The accompanying teaser poster features the group members leaning on one another with the song logo at the top alongside an official concept teaser.[6] The song was further revealed to be the "main track" of its parent album.[7][8] The next day, the official tracklist for the album was released via Twitter.[9]
Composition[]
"Lovesick Girls" was written by Løren, Danny Chung, Jisoo, Jennie, and Teddy Park while composition was handled by the latter two with David Guetta, 24, R. Tee, Leah Haywood, and David Guetta.[10] The song has been described as a dance-pop and electropop song with an acoustic guitar and EDM sound.[3][11] In terms of musical notation, the song is composed in the key of G-flat major, with a tempo of 128 beats per minute, and runs for three minutes and 14 seconds.[12] Lyrically, the song deals with the pain after a heartbreak and not being able to find the perfect person to be with.[13][14] Jisoo further commented on the track's concept, saying it is a song "that sends a hopeful message revolving around girls who are constantly hurt in relationships but again set out for a new love."[15]
Critical reception[]
The song was met with positive reviews from critics. Ranking it the second best track of the album, Billboard's Jason Lipshutz opined that the song "demonstrates Blackpink’s ambition, as they tackle well-worn subject matter with a fresh aesthetic."[16] Callie Ahlgrim from Insider called "Lovesick Girls" a "EDM-flavored sequel" to Ariana Grande's smash hit "7 Rings" and noted that the lyrics "We are the lovesick girls" or "I'm nothing without this pain" are making this song a "heartbreak anthem".[17] Writing for Rolling Stone, Tim Chan wrote that the song "turns a familiar lament about being alone into an anthemic dance track that’s just begging for a lightstick and clubs to reopen".[18] Hannah Zwick of Consequence of Sound described "Lovesick Girls" as "an album highlight, especially for the vocalists".[19] Raul Stanciu from Sputnikmusic, positively compared the song to Blackpink's "As If It's Your Last", stating that the song "is probably the closest Blackpink have steered towards the lovely disco grooves".[20] Erica Gonzales of Harper's Bazaar called it "a girl anthem" that showcases the band's range.[14] Seventeen's Tamara Fuentes named the song as "an upbeat track" that "will get you up and dancing as soon as the intro starts."[21]

The music video opens with Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo and Rosé sitting in a pink Oldsmobile in a field before flashbacking to the members getting into a heated argument in a crashed, graffiti-covered car on an urban street singing, "We are the lovesick girls/But we were born to be alone/Yeah, we were born to be alone/Yeah, we were born to be alone/But why we still looking for love." Lovesickness strikes them in many different ways, including moody walks in a day-glo field, guitar-smashing outbursts, choreographed late-night street dances, smashing car headlights with a sledgehammer, breathless midnight sprints through the city, angsty therapy sessions, a trip to a paintball range, and a food fight in a bodega.[53]
Controversy[]
Following the release of the music video for "Lovesick Girls", the Korean Health and Medical Workers Union raised concerns about member Jennie's nurse outfit which was featured in her solo scene. The union released a statement stating that YG Entertainment "sexually objectified the image of a nurse" in the video. Subsequently, YG Entertainment released a statement that they intended to replace the scene.[54]
Accolades[]
"Lovesick Girls" achieved the top spot on various South Korean weekly music programs, such as SBS' Inkigayo, KBS' Music Bank and MBC's Show! Music Core due to its success on digital platforms. The song won six music show awards, including three consecutive wins that led to receiving the "triple crown" award on Inkigayo.
