00:00 On November 21st, the Korean State Banquet at Buckingham Palace in the United Kingdom

00:04 took place to honor the President of South Korea's visit.

00:08 King Charles III, Queen Camilla, Prince William, and Princess Kate Middleton of the British

00:12 Royal Family welcomed about 170 guests at the solemn state banquet, including the K-pop

00:17 girl group Blackpink.

00:19 All four members Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa were present.

00:23 They wore gorgeous, luxurious outfits and strode down the red carpet of the palace as

00:27 they entered the party.

00:29 In King Charles III's speech, he praised Blackpink for using their fame to care about environmental

00:34 issues.

00:35 I applaud Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé, better known collectively as Blackpink, for

00:41 their role in bringing the message of environmental sustainability to a global audience as ambassadors

00:46 for the UK's presidency of COP26, and later as advocates for the UN's sustainable development

00:53 goals.

00:54 I can only admire how they can prioritize these vital issues as well as being global

00:58 superstars.

01:00 As he spoke, cameras were pointed towards the group, showing their reactions to be mentioned

01:04 by name.

01:05 Jisoo reacted in complete surprise, while Jennie and Rosé couldn't help but smile a

01:10 bit bashfully while looking at the other members, as Lisa repeatedly blinked as though she couldn't

01:15 believe what just happened while trying to keep it cool.

01:18 It is known that Blackpink specially came to England to attend the state banquet.

01:23 Early in July, Blackpink made history when they became the first Korean group to perform

01:28 at the UK's largest music festival, BST Hyde Park.
