Shut Down Performance
Silencing the noise with a symphony of gold, power, and unapologetic confidence.
The "Shut Down" performance is a key part of Blackpink's promotion for their second studio album, Born Pink (2022). The group performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and the South Korean music program Inkigayo, as well as during the Born Pink World Tour. The choreography was created by Kiel Tutin, Taryn Cheng, Lee Jeong (Ri Jeong), and Kyle Hanagami of the choreography team YGX, who emphasized "Blackpink's unique strong hip-hop swag" and aimed to "maximize the core points of the performance and the colorful charms of the members." A dance performance video, released on September 18, 2022, shows the four members doing the full choreography in matching black outfits in front of a set decorated with silver shutters, later joined by dancers in gray outfits.
