Reasons Behind Unusual Reactions To BLACKPINK Lisa’s Dating Issue

On May 2nd, Lisa shared multiple photos on her SNS account, taken in the garden of the Rodin Museum in Paris, France. The images feature Lisa wearing a gray long coat paired with jeans.

Recently, photos of Lisa and Frederic Arnault eating ice cream together at a popular spot have become viral on online platforms. The user who shared the images mentioned that Lisa and her boyfriend, Frederic Arnault, were seen showing affection towards each other.

Despite ongoing dating rumors, Lisa indirectly confirmed her romantic relationship by sharing photos taken at the same location. She had previously remained quiet about the speculation surrounding her and Frederic Arnault, but this is the first instance of her publicly acknowledging it. While there were some negative comments, the majority of fans flooded Lisa’s account with messages of congratulations on her newfound love, such as “You two make a great couple”, “Congratulations!”, “You look adorable together”, and more.

Despite the usual reaction from fans when a female K-pop idol is rumored to be dating or confirms a relationship, the atmosphere surrounding aespa’s Karina was quite different. In the past, fans have expressed disappointment and even criticized idols for being in a relationship. However, Karina’s recent publicized romance with actor Lee Jae-wook led to her writing a letter of apology to her fans.

Despite this, there is still a question as to why Lisa’s relationships are treated differently. One reason could be the immense recognition she has received as a BLACKPINK member. Having reached the top of her main career, it is believed that she should also be able to freely pursue personal relationships. Furthermore, with 8 years of experience as an idol and approaching the age of 30, it is only natural for Lisa to want to explore romantic relationships.

Despite dating someone, Lisa’s immense popularity among her predominantly Thai fan base remains strong due to their unwavering loyalty and unconditional support.

Besides Lisa, the other members of BLACKPINK have also been involved in dating scandals. Jennie has been linked to EXO’s Kai, BIGBANG’s G-Dragon, and BTS’s V. Jisoo was in a relationship with actor Ahn Bo-hyun, but they ended things after a brief time. Rosé was rumored to be dating actor Kang Dong-won, although she has already denied it.

At the same time, Lisa’s alleged partner, Frederic Arnault, is the fourth son of the LVMH family. He is recognized as the second wealthiest individual in the world and currently holds the role of CEO at TAGHeuer. Lisa recently extended her contract with YG Entertainment for group endeavors and also established her own personal label, LLOUD.
