"The Girls" is a promotional single by South Korean girl group Blackpink for the original soundtrack of the mobile game Blackpink: The Game. It was first made available in the game on August 23, 2023, before it was officially released two days later, through YG Entertainment and TakeOne Company. Written by various contributors, including the track producers Ryan Tedder and Lindgren along with group members Jennie and Rosé, it is a trap and EDM song driven by hip-hop leaning beats over Turkish flute sounds, with lyrics that discuss the importance of being independent and courageous in life. A physical version was also released on the same day, which peaked at number one on the Circle Album Chart with 160,460 sales in the first week. The song also reached the top 10 in Vietnam.
