“I hope that people will hear the song and think, ‘Wow, this is it. This is something only Lisa can do’,” she added. The BLACKPINK member also spoke about the music video, noting that “the set and outfits… capture that Thai vibe well”.

During the press conference, Lisa also spoke about what she hopes to achieve through her solo debut. “Rather than focusing on rankings, I hope that people will see that Lisa has this side to her as well. If I can make BLINKs happy with my songs and performances, I’m satisfied,” she said.

The K-pop idol is the third member of BLACKPINK to make her solo debut. Earlier this year, Rosé released her first solo single album ‘R’, which featured the smash hit ‘On The Ground’. Meanwhile, Jennie went solo in 2018 with the song ‘Solo’. It’s currently unclear when Jisoo is set to make her solo debut.







In the first four days of it going up for pre-order, ‘Lalisa’ racked up more than 700,000 sales. According to her label YG Entertainment, pre-orders came from many regions outside of South Korea, including the United States, China, Japan, Europe and Southeast Asia.
