BLACKPINK member Lisa has recently navigated both public scrutiny and a period of professional transition. Following the resurfacing of a video from the Chinese program ‘Youth With You Season 3’, Lisa faced criticism on social media for her reaction to a trainee who appeared to be trembling with anxiety. Supporters countered that the footage was being taken out of context and that the segment was intended to be lighthearted. In tandem with these events, Lisa has been discussing her evolution as a solo artist. She previously noted feeling ‘a little bit scared’ when navigating a career without her group’s structure, citing the need for a hiatus to avoid burnout. More recently, she has focused on redefining her creative boundaries, emphasizing a desire to reclaim creative control and explore the intersection of her personal identity and cultural heritage. This period of artistic self-discovery has been further documented in the film ‘Always Lalisa’. The documentary follows her transformative year, including the release of her album ‘Alter Ego’, her acting debut in the third season of ‘The White Lotus’, and her performance at the 2025 Coachella Music Festival. Director Sue Kim stated that the production maintained total creative freedom through Sony Music Vision and did not work with YG Entertainment. Kim noted that while the filmmakers attempted to license footage of Lisa’s trainee days and BLACKPINK music videos, YG Entertainment did not permit it. The film highlights Lisa’s efforts to redefine herself outside the constraints of the K-pop system, which previously involved heavy monitoring of her personal life.
