Lisa from BLACKPINK is taking the world by storm once again, this time with the release of her poignant short film music video, “Dreams.” The five-minute cinematic journey, which showcases themes of love and loss, features Lisa as a heartbroken widow alongside Japanese actor Kentaro Sakaguchi. Their powerful performances have struck a chord with fans, many of whom have shared their own emotional stories in response.
The music video, “DREAM” featuring Kentaro Sakaguchi, has skyrocketed to the top of YouTube, trending at #1 and racking up an impressive 6.05 million views within just 24 hours. This remarkable debut marks it as the highest for a short film this year.
In a recent interview on Japan’s Ohayou Asahi Desu, Kentaro expressed admiration for Lisa’s laid-back personality, noting that their off-camera interactions significantly enhanced their on-screen chemistry. Lisa reciprocated the praise, highlighting Kentaro’s ability to convey deep emotions and expressing her eagerness to collaborate with him again.
After a brief retreat in Capri, Lisa made her way back to London, joining her BLACKPINK bandmates as they gear up for their highly anticipated Deadline World Tour stop at Wembley Stadium. On August 15, she was seen filming a walking challenge in the city with Loukgolf, the founder of Thailand’s ANGKRIZ English tutorial school.
Lisa took to Instagram to share glimpses of her “dreamy day trip” in London, showcasing her chic outfit that included an Acne Studios sweater and Maison Margiela ballerinas. She was spotted exploring the city with a friend, visiting The Dreamery for ice cream and wine before grabbing a coconut blue matcha at Heytea. Their adventure continued as they crossed the Thames to the Southbank Centre, home to the renowned Hayward Gallery.
Meanwhile, fellow BLACKPINK member Jennie has also been making waves in Europe. After enjoying a DJ set by Diplo in Ibiza, where she mingled with Calvin Harris and Maggie Lindemann, Jennie has reportedly made her way to London as well. While Rosé and Jisoo have kept a lower profile, all four members are diligently preparing for their landmark performance.
Fans are already lining up at the pop-up store ahead of the concert, set to take place at 4 a.m. KST on August 16. BLACKPINK is poised to make history as the first foreign girl group to grace the stage at Wembley Stadium, joining the ranks of the Spice Girls as one of the few girl groups to headline this iconic venue.
As the excitement builds, fans are left wondering what unforgettable moments await them at this historic concert.
