Girl group Blackpink's new digital single, "Jump," topped iTunes charts in 47 countries, YG Entertainment said Saturday.

The song, released Friday, marks the group's first release in two years and 10 months since its second full-length album, "Born Pink," which dropped in September 2022 — excluding "The Girls" (2023), which is from the soundtrack of a video game.

"Jump" marks a departure from the K-pop quartet's previous musical styles. It "captivates listeners with guitar riffs reminiscent of a Western film, layered with the members' distinctive vocals," according to the agency.

Music producers Teddy and 24, who have crafted Blackpink's hit songs, collaborated on the track with international lyricists and composers. The song's music video, released Friday, was helmed by Grammy-winning director Dave Meyers.

Blackpink performed the song for the first time during its "Deadline" world tour at Goyang Stadium in Goyang, Gyeonggi, last weekend.

The tour is set to continue through 15 more cities, including Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, Paris, Italy's Milan, London and Thailand's Bangkok.
