In a whirlwind of excitement, BLACKPINK is making headlines once again! Fresh off two electrifying nights in Paris, the iconic K-pop group has touched down in Milan, Italy, as they prepare for a monumental concert on August 6th at the Ipodramos Lamora, where over 50,000 fans are expected to unite for an unforgettable experience.
This upcoming show is particularly historic, marking BLACKPINK as the first Asian act to perform a solo concert at this venue, and the second K-pop group to host stadium shows in Italy, following in the footsteps of Stray Kids. Their ongoing European leg of the Deadline World Tour continues to break records and solidify their status as global superstars.
Before heading to Milan, members of BLACKPINK took a brief respite in the City of Light. Jennie was spotted enjoying some leisure time in the chic Marray district of Paris, where she indulged in window shopping. One fortunate fan, still buzzing from the previous night’s concert, had a chance encounter with her. “I was so shocked I couldn’t even react,” the fan recalled, while a friend, blissfully unaware of Jennie’s fame, managed to capture a few quick photos.
Meanwhile, Lisa took advantage of her time in Paris to reconnect with family, sharing heartwarming moments with her cousin. However, her downtime was short-lived as she ignited a frenzy online with a series of intriguing posts. Recently, Lisa shared Instagram stories featuring her track “Dream” as the backdrop, leading fans to speculate about an upcoming music video.
In one eye-catching image, Lisa appears to be playfully biting someone else’s arm while getting a dream tattoo, with her crew adjusting her outfit in the background. Observant fans noted equipment marked with the Grip Factory Munich logo, suggesting these glimpses may be behind-the-scenes shots from her anticipated music video.
Adding another layer to the buzz, fans have identified a mysterious figure with blonde hair in one of the posts, believed to be Japanese actor Canaro Sakaguchi, rumored to portray Lisa’s ex in the video. This narrative reportedly draws inspiration from her past relationship in 2019. Interestingly, Lisa has recently dyed her hair blonde, seemingly echoing her look from that time, and it appears Canaro has also embraced a similar hair color.
Fans are eagerly theorizing that “Dream” will be a visually ambitious project, potentially directed by Hiro Marai, the acclaimed filmmaker known for his work on “Atlanta” and “This Is America.” Marai’s recent follow of Lisa on Instagram has fueled speculation about his involvement in the creative direction of the music video, which is said to explore Lisa’s past romance through a stylized lens.
From the enchanting streets of Paris to the grand stage in Milan, BLACKPINK continues to mesmerize fans with their artistry and charisma. As they prepare for their next performance, one can’t help but wonder what surprises lie ahead for the group and their devoted followers.
