1st Logo (2013-)

Visuals: An in-credit logo featuring "YG" in a distinctive geometric font and with either "ENTERTAINMENT" below the wordmark or the following to the right side of the wordmark:

YG
ENTERTAINMENT

Technique: A still, digital graphic.

Audio: The closing theme.

Availability: Can be seen on WIN: Who is Next and concert DVDs such as Blackpink: The Show. Also seen on Blackpink: The Movie, appearing after the next logo and the ScreenX Originals logo.

2nd Logo (2016-)

Visuals: Multiple geometric letters spin about on a black background. Two of the letters, "Y" and "G", rotate together in the middle of the screen. Glare then appears reflected on the "YG" which has stopped moving and becomes "merged" into a single wordmark (the "YG" from the previous logo). All the other letters disappear as the background fades to black, leaving out the "YG" in white.

Technique: CGI.

Audio:

Big Bang Made: Electric drum beats play throughout the logo, with the loudest drumbeat playing when the glare appears.
Blackpink: The Movie: Synth chimes play throughout the logo.

Availability: Seen on Big Bang Made and Blackpink: The Movie.
