Blackpink made a major play to become the new K-pop girl group to watch by debut with not one but two blazing singles "Boombayah" and "Whistle." The confident club cuts were a major success for the foursome in both their native Korea and America, and the ladies are keeping fans intrigued by showing new sides of themselves with another pair of singles.

The first, "Playing With Fire," continues the synth-driven sound heard in their past releases, but blends in a heavy dose of melancholy as the girls wail about a dangerous love that one can't stay away from. While the topic of an intense relationship is a mature one for a young group to tackle so quickly in their careers, there is a youthful approach as they think back on their mother's advice and include the (sometimes-too-on-the-nose) lines like, "My love is on fire...now burn baby burn!" that indicate more relatable, not-wholly mature take on the topic. The accompanying video shows the members lamenting about said lover with the fire concept full-on pushed in front of the viewer as Blackpink dance among burning structures and leader Jennie plays with matches.
