Lisa from BLACKPINK is releasing a powerful new documentary titled Lisa, premiering at TIFF on September 11th, hitting theaters in October, and landing on YouTube Premium soon after.

She opens up about keeping personal life private to protect the group’s image, revealing how misunderstood she felt by fans and media. Coinciding with this, her highly anticipated solo EP Press Play drops October 23rd, with the first single “SaWaDiKa” already released. This marks a bold move toward self-expression and artistic ownership, as Lisa redefines herself beyond K-pop stardom—on her own terms, under her own spotlight.
