"Pink Venom" is a song recorded by South Korean girl group Blackpink. It was released through YG Entertainment and Interscope Records on August 19, 2022, as the pre-release single from the group's second studio album, Born Pink (2022). It is a hip-hop, pop rap, dance and EDM song that incorporates Korean traditional instruments, 90s hip-hop and electropop musical styles. The track was composed by Teddy, 24, R. Tee, and Ido, with its lyrics penned by Teddy and Danny Chung.

"Pink Venom" received mixed reviews from critics, who complimented its catchy production but criticized its composition and the lack of musical growth. The song was commercially successful worldwide and spent two weeks atop the Billboard Global 200, marking the first time a girl group reached number one on the chart. In South Korea, the song peaked at number two on the Circle Digital Chart, while it peaked at number 22 on the US Billboard Hot 100 as well as the UK Singles Chart. It became the first song by a K-pop group to reach number one in Australia, and topped the charts in eight other territories. It was certified platinum in Canada and gold in Australia and Japan.

The music video for "Pink Venom" was directed by Seo Hyun-seung and received 90.4 million views within 24 hours on YouTube—the biggest 24-hour debut for a music video in 2022, and the third-largest of all time on the platform. To promote the single, Blackpink performed on the South Korean music program Inkigayo as well as the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards, where they became the first Korean girl group to perform at the award ceremony. Its accolades include Best Choreography at the MTV Video Music Awards and Best Music Video at the MAMA Awards.
