JISOO's Hot Ones look was pinned together with a single detail. Here's how to bring it home with the BLACKPINK Classic T-Shirt pin.
JISOO sat down with Sean Evans for Hot Ones on July 16, 2026, and honestly, the wings didn't stand a chance. She was calm, funny, and served looks the whole time. Between answering questions about "Flower" and "All Eyes on Me," she managed to drop a styling tip that's been echoing around BLINK Twitter ever since.
What was she wearing? White tee. Black blazer. A single pin on the lapel. That pin was a tiny BLACKPINK classic tee, and it's the reason this entire article exists.
Hot Ones is a show that's all about close-ups. The camera doesn't miss anything - not the sweat, not the shake in your hand, not your outfit. JISOO knew that. So she kept it simple.
Her white tee was crisp, not wrinkled. Her blazer was oversized but structured, with the sleeves pushed up just a little. She added a pair of thin silver earrings and let her hair fall naturally. And then, on the left lapel, sat that one pin.
She didn't pull from a celebrity stylist's mood board. She pulled from the same place you can: the official BLACKPINK store.
The pin in question is the BLACKPINK Classic T-Shirt - a hard enamel pin with the BLACKPINK logo, styled to look like the brand's classic tee. It's $24.99, made from zinc alloy with a butterfly clutch back, and it's tiny enough to be a detail but loud enough to be a statement.
Here's the thing about JISOO: she doesn't do loud. She does precise. One pin, placed exactly right, says more than a chest full of graphics.
During the interview, Sean asked about her pre-show ritual. JISOO said, "I look in the mirror, I check my pin is straight, and then I go." It's a small thing, but it's become the line fans quote in the comments. She also mentioned that the pin was a gift from a fellow member, which made the whole moment feel even more personal.
The moment the episode aired, BLINKs across TikTok and Instagram started recreating the look. Search "JISOO pin" and you'll find hundreds of videos, mostly from fans who immediately knew they had to own that exact piece.
Some are pinning the BLACKPINK Classic T-Shirt to the collar of the BLACKPINK Polo Shirt - a $34.99 preppy move that changes the whole feel. Others are clipping it to the strap of a tank top, like the BLACKPINK Tank Top for $19.99. That one's a summer staple, and with August right around the corner, it's the perfect time to adopt it.
One TikToker's tutorial actually went semi-viral by pinning it to the sleeve of the BLACKPINK Premium Hoodie. She said it made the blackpink merch store hoodie feel "more polished," and you know what? She was right. The contrast between the heavy fleece and the hard enamel pin creates a texture play that reads as intentional.
The pin is a chameleon. Because it's hard enamel, it stands up to wear. The butterfly clutch back means you can move it around without fuss - stick it on a hats & caps collection, a denim jacket, even the loop of a tote bags & totes collection. Fans have also been trading them at pop-ups, which JISOO would definitely approve of, given that she said on the show that she loves swapping pins with other artists.
This is a pin, not a shop blackpink merch store shirt-blackpink-im-certified-blink-long-sleeve-t-shirt)-rose-blackpink-long-sleeve-t-shirt), so "sizing" is about where you wear it. The Classic T-blackpink merch store shirt pin measures about one inch across. That's roughly the size of a coin, so it won't overwhelm any fabric. Place it on a lapel for the JISOO look, or center it on a collar for a more graphic feel.
For the actual apparel, here's your cheat sheet:
| Product | Price | Fit Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BLACKPINK Classic T-Shirt pin | $24.99 | 1-inch hard enamel, zinc alloy, butterfly clutch back. |
| BLACKPINK Premium Hoodie | $49.99 | Unisex sizing, true to size. Heavyweight fleece. |
| BLACKPINK Polo Shirt | $34.99 | Classic polo fit, slight taper at the waist. |
| BLACKPINK Tank Top | $19.99 | Fitted, stretchy. Order your usual size. |
If you're between sizes, most BLINKs recommend sizing up for the hoodie to get that boxy look JISOO loves. For the polo and tank, stick true to size - they're meant to skim the body, not hang off it.
The pin itself is built to last. The zinc alloy base gives it a satisfying weight, and the hard enamel won't crack if you drop it. The butterfly clutch back is secure too - you won't lose this pin on a busy subway ride.

Is the pin safe for delicate fabrics? Yes. The butterfly clutch back won't snag most materials, but for silk or thin knits, we recommend backing it with a small piece of felt or just sticking to thicker fabrics like denim or fleece.
What's the pin made of? It's hard enamel on zinc alloy. That means the colors are baked in and won't chip easily. The metal itself has a nice weight - it's not flimsy.
How do I put the pin on without damaging my clothes? Place the pin through the fabric, then push the butterfly clutch from the other side. For thicker areas like a lapel, it might take a little wiggling. To keep it upright, avoid putting it on curved seams.
Can I trade these pins with other fans? Absolutely. JISOO mentioned on Hot Ones that she trades pins with artists she meets. Fans do the same at concerts and through social media groups. Just make sure you're trading with someone legit.
What if I want the full JISOO look? Start with a white tee and a black blazer - those are easy to find. Then add the Classic T-shop blackpink merch store shirt pin. That's the whole formula. You can also layer the BLACKPINK Premium Hoodie underneath if you want the post-show look.
