BLACKPINK’s Lisa, horse without reins ahead of contract renewal? Korean fans oppose this move

Amidst various rumors of BLACKPINK’s upcoming contract renewal, attention has been drawn to Lisa’s daring actions, which has sparked controversy

BLACKPINK’s Lisa has made headlines for her appearance at the “Crazy Horse” nude show in Paris, France. Although the show is known for its artistic merit, it often involves nudity and has faced controversy due to its sensual nature

Fans had expressed concerns about Lisa’s participation in the show, but she appeared to have limited her exposure during her performance. While some expected her to be fully nude like other performers, Lisa maintained a certain level of modesty by wearing clothes during her act.

Lisa actively promoted her participation in the “Crazy Horse” show on her personal SNS, sharing her excitement and even posting the photo taken with fellow BLACKPINK members who came to support her. This decision was seen as bold and generated significant attention worldwide.

However, in Korea, where conservative views on such performances are prevalent, the reaction to Lisa’s involvement was less enthusiastic. Some fans expressed concerns that her participation might change the perception of BLACKPINK, a group that appeals to a wide range of audiences, including young students.

Lisa’s performance at the “Crazy Horse” show is not yet complete, as she is scheduled to perform multiple times from Sep 28th to 30th. Therefore, fans are anxiously waiting for the show to end.

Lisa is not the only BLACKPINK member to face controversies related to sensuality. Jennie received criticism for her appearance in HBO’s series “The Idol”, where she portrayed scenes with strong sexual undertones. Despite being invited to the 76th Cannes Film Festival’s out of competition section for her debut acting role, Jennie faced backlash for her participation in the series, and the production of Season 2 was subsequently canceled.

BLACKPINK, often referred to as “global idols” rather than just “K-pop idols”, wields significant influence worldwide. While bold activities like Lisa’s participation in the “Crazy Horse” show may be considered artistic challenges, it is essential to remember that image is crucial in the world of idols, and fans are closely monitoring their actions with hopes that they maintain a positive image.
