this was playing in my mind before i saw this comment i swear😭


totallyamazingahole

She looks like she participated in the last XG comeback


SafiyaO

It really does. I'm sure it was photographed way beforehand but it doesn't look very original at all. The pop girls need to be choosing a different era of Bjork to be inspired by.


The_Doom_Toad

>The pop girls need to be choosing a different era of Bjork to be inspired by. Ok this made me snort.


justanotherkpoppie

I think it's just the photographer's personal style? Here are some [examples](https://www.instagram.com/p/C2uahpONe_9/). Also, K-pop isn't very original, so there's that lol (no shade, I love K-pop, but a lot of it is very heavily inspired by other things/people/artists)


ellemu0509

It’s 100% [Jack Bridgland’s](https://www.instagram.com/jack_bridgland_studio?igsh=MWpidG95MnlvY2RnNw==) style 🙌🏾 The world is far bigger than comparisons to other kpop groups. It’s so awesome that Lisa got to work with him.


alegxab

Unsurprisingly Jack was also behind Katy Perry's latest photoshoot   https://www.boredpanda.com/katy-perry-new-song-teaser-sparks-ozempic-rumors/ [yeah, that article is really bad, but it mentions Jack and includes most of the pics]  https://www.threads.net/@katy.argentina/post/C8YPMSjtOc5


BurnNPhoenix

Depends on who you ask lol. Influences wise as you say maybe, but that is where most the similarities end. K-Pop has more then proven itself orgional in other areas. It has to be given the intense competition between rival gangs so to speak lol. Anyways, it doesn't matter as I see your point.


ratatosk212

If Rosé rocks the swan dress I'll worship at her feet.


VeritasXNY

Shout-out to Bjork!


SydneyTeacake

To me it looks like if YG brought out a deluxe version of How You Like That. She's done this kind of hair before, this kind of accessorizing. Only new thing to me is she let her skin tone look lifelike.


ellemu0509

Kpop really lives in a bubble and this is why Min Hee Jin is crying about plagiarism and we are looking at her sideways. No one owns a “look” or even a style of music. The western industry has countless artists who look and sound like each other but no one blinks an eye unless there is legit plagiarism of lyrics… just lyrics, not aesthetics/visuals.


justanotherkpoppie

Seriously, it's starting to get on my nerves


ipposan

ie the whole country genre.


These_Usual5378

I wonder if some of the song will be in Korean.


bluesandshoes1

Feels like she's definitely moving Western-centric in her solo career.


bananamilkbooth

Honestly doubt it. I would be very surprised.


These_Usual5378

Yeah, I wonder if she would go on music shows as well 🤔


actualkon

Or, in an even less likely scenario, Thai


justanotherkpoppie

That would be SO freaking cool!!!


ALPHAZINSOMNIA

I would totally eat that up! 😂


LyleLanleysMonorail

T-pop??


Gujonpyo

Nope fully English


Good_Dish9728

Is that a mullet??


justanotherkpoppie

It sure is, and y'know what, I'm kind of digging it?


SXNSHINE99

Me too. I'm liking it. It goes well with the overall look.


Icantlikeeveryone

Is this her hyperpop era?


EezoManiac

From the audio teaser we heard, it certainly seems that way.


sunmi_siren

Oh a hyperpop song would be so fire


Round_Cartoonist9778

Ate, yk what , what if lisa gives us a Thai rap , want her & millie to collab I feel it'll be English waiting!!!


M3rc_Nate

I wanted this (Lisa to introduce herself as LaLisa the solo artist with a Thai forward song, have LaLisa feature her culture and language) but instead we got what we got...  If I'm her I'm wanting to rep Thailand, feature Minnie in a R&B style song (singing), feature BamBam in a song and feature Natty in a hip hop song. Lean into the Thai sounds, visuals and language. 


Round_Cartoonist9778

I mean it's just the beginning of her solo career, let's see I blv lisa is ambitious she'll probably continue doing music for a long time


Tiny_Comment

I think she's getting there too, since she has said several times that she admires Rosalía because she fused pop and rap with flamenco and other clearly Spanish music, and that's what she wants to do with her Thai heritage. For now, just the skin colour (and the abscence of locks) is a good start. She looks South Asian, not Korean and it doesn't seem like she's blackfishing (idk, she has done way worse). And about the living the socialité life... Rosalía is doing the same and Motomami was, at the very least, an interesting and experimental album. In the end she needs contacts and people with social currency who can get out your music outside her kpop public. I don't know, maybe I'm in the wrong, but I'm excited.


bdragonst_

The grillz and accessories for few XG songs and this comeback's Lisa came from the same designer, so it makes sense that they gonna look similar. [https://www.instagram.com/saeminium/](https://www.instagram.com/saeminium/)


funkofan1021

uhhh….


TerrytheMerry

Entering her Miley Cyrus era.


God_Lover77

It must be bad for people to get this honest.


Ynon123

maiLISAyrus. sorry.


booksmd

It’s a combo between Miley Cyrus and Tate McRae looks wise imo. I also saw Katy Perry going for that look but her song is so bad 😭 hopefully lisa’s is better


Any_Turn3746

She looks like Steve Urkel's sister


Early-Tale-2578

This was my exact reaction 🤣


moomoomilky1

that's some really strong airbrushing


arianagrandeintoyou

that’s mainly the style / aesthetic of this particular photographer (Jack Bridgeland), he’s become well known for this sort of ‘look’ within all of his photography. His photos of Hongjoong/Mingi from ATEEZ are the same


junhuiis

this is the photographer's (jack bridgeland) style. all of the photos he takes looks just like this


Nagisa201

I wouldn't know it was her if her name wasn't on the picture


seolovely

u/seonghwasmoons thinking of the ateez photoshoot and I knew this was Jack Bridgland's work when I saw this for Lisa BY THE WAY!! This is definetly the work of the photographer and the style. They worked with[ Ateez Hongjoong ](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fekcyda86a7nb1.jpg)[and Mingi ](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2F231005-jack-bridgland-studio-on-instagram-hongjoong-x-v0-h879rlc0zesb1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D640%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Df7853afc9b3c410388e912a35f9500294a6f7b51)and here are some photoshoots of[ Jacob Elordi](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fjacob-elordi-photographed-by-jack-bridgland-for-british-gqs-v0-wkpit8fdd40c1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Da763e31bc5ea9b27bafe7584e0180b02688374cc) and [Kim Kardashain](https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/d2bxUSClh14Ye3R1bHXPSw--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTY0MDtoPTc5Nw--/https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2023-11/59a72ac0-8364-11ee-b77e-47736bdc52e8)


God_Lover77

Great if you are trying to pull off the 2000s sharpened image style which is the point I think.


justanotherkpoppie

To be fair, the vast majority of K-pop photos are also strongly airbrushed


SXNSHINE99

That's just how majority of the concept pics look.


kbdsct

Honestly this photo does what it’s meant to do perfectly. Create a buzz for an upcoming release, as is evident in the discussion here as well. Get the people talking, grab the eyeballs— that’s the point of a teaser, so job well done to her team. Personally? I do love me some statement accessories, and those earrings are fabulous, but I’m not feeling the hair much. I’ve never really liked mullets in general, actually.


Cvspartan

I agree with you. It's only been two hours and this is already one of the top 5 commented Teaser threads in the past year of this subreddit. Now most of it is because it is Blackpink and Lisa, but also because this style can be hit-or-miss for people and will get them talking either way. I'm personally not 100% a fan of this look, but it totally fits her, and I'm very excited to see how it translates to a MV. Edit: It is now the most commented Teaser post in this subreddit in the past year


ellemu0509

You are very right 🎯. Also, the photographer does a lot of looks from the 90s. I don’t think most people are fan of mullets these days lol.


Anaisot7

I agree, whenever people realize it or not, this picture did the intended job, and will get people to be aware, even tuning in for her release. So, props to her and her team.


whyamiherereally13

I like the hair a lot! She has always come across to me as someone with really natural charisma but misguided music. I hope she finds a better sound this time around, Money and Lalisa to me were not it musically.


wut_eva_bish

NGL, definitely got a bit of ick when I first saw this. Dunno if it's the wig or the expression, or the heavy photoshop, or sumthin. Gonna take some getting used to.

foreverwithkris

same here


xaynie

thirded


vessva11

I’m honestly surprised people are hating on this. Kpop needs more outlandish styling and concepts nowadays.


supertuna875

Right? I didn't expect to see so much negativity but as someone said, this did create the buzz and everyone's talking about her so it's all good


seolovely

some people b like "leave yg!! they are inhibiting your creative expression!!" and then b mad when the kpop star expresses creative expression


miiikyut

If it’s the usual bp styling, people will be mad. If it’s out of the left field like this, people will still be mad 🤷🏻‍♀️


Zeedub85

It's Lisa. Haters gonna hate, Lisa gonna ate. That sounded better in my head.


justanotherkpoppie

Right? It actually screams peak K-pop to me, it's wacky and wild and I love when K-pop goes wacky and wild


im-so-lovelyz

Not just Kpop, but peak YG energy a la Dara


TemplarParadox17

It’s cause it’s BP lol.


caelinday

because weirdos only like their cute girlypop concepts and hate anytime it strays from that


OdiseoX2

She's going full Miley Cyrus


turquoise_mutant

I love the earrings, the styling is cool, it feels retro and modern at the same time


Thelandoflambs

She looks sick in the best way! A rock star, a pop star, but rowdier 🎶


Didiblinki

All this commotion and it’s just one teaser pic lol. Lisa probably wants to generate buzz and she got it.


gg5ever

Love that she’s gone for something a bit unexpected, it’s really cool!


mango_s

That’s something for sure


justanotherkpoppie

Wasn't at all what I was expecting but I'm here for it! Can't believe we're living in an era where we get non-white-washed Lisa and her trying something new and funky and wild!


Glass_Sleep4975

She looks so out there omg I LOVE IT!! If there's one thing about Kpop I feel like the idols always have to look conventionally pretty even in the edgier concepts (although, we know Lisa isn't going down the Kpop star route anymore). This is actually going full-on into "IDC about looking pretty" territory. I think it's good that some people are actually weirded/grossed out haha because the fact that this teaser has generated so much discussion means it has more than done its job! I've always seen Lisa as the member with the most potential for bold and experimental styling and I'm glad to see that she has not let me down there 😆


grandtroubleartist

i'm personally intrigued to see what else jack did with her!


Pilose

As I said before every lisa release, this may or may not end up being what some wanted, but I can *guarantee* it will be a banger


quro6kawa

it looks like a 2010 album cover lmao


morrenmorcogimico

I don't follow Blackpink but this looks sick af! I don't understand the negativity


WeeFkingWoo

Yeah i dont get it either?? Like sure this teaser might not be everyone's cup of tea but SO many kpop teasers are very still pictures of idol softly smiling with so much soft light exposure you can barely make out nose definition. And people eat it up everytime, but this is what makes people so negative? At least its trying to be interesting


nomoreconversations

This sub really doesn’t like BP😭


Introvert_Brnr_accnt

The negativity is that it’s Blackpink+not “as if it’s your last”. People reeeeally detest Blackpink for no reason


oh_WHAT

the negativity is because it's bp or a bp member


Grill_Enthusiast

None of us understand the negativity with Blackpink, but this is r/kpop so get used to seeing it under every BP post.


U_nhoely

I don’t even understand why people even bother tuning in to a group they dislike so much.


justanotherkpoppie

Because it's Blackpink, for some reason this sub really dislikes BP as a whole


SXNSHINE99

It's so weird for some reason.

How to get good concept photos, tutorial for YG artists 1. Leave YG end of the tutorial


taytae24

just complaining… bp are known for their extravagant styling and mvs, they often have aesthetically pleasing and expensive aesthetics which is exactly what lisa is giving here? it’s even reminiscent of HYLT which was made under yg. the girls just didn’t get to promote enough to explore more concepts, that’s all. they’ve opened their companies now, stop dwelling on the past and just enjoy their new journey!


istarothxx

The styling, wig and accessories alr looking more promising and modern than any BP concept in the last 6 years is… Actually excited for this new era of them


justanotherkpoppie

Same here! Right now I'm of the mentality that even if I personally don't like what the girls end up releasing, I'm just excited to see them trying new things and thriving outside of YG


Weekly_Office269

YG could only wish to hire Jack Bridgland for a teaser photo


Y2kNINV

I can see this concept in Yg though so I don’t get it ?


ksaizx

ofc you can see this concept in YG, im not denying it but the photo would look like they are nugu company and it was made by yang hyunsuk himself with 5$ camera and free, pirated version of some random program for editing


buuurnerheehaw

Lisa's How You Like That teaser photo is literally among the most iconic K-Pop concept photos of all time wdym 💀


kiof-natty

I've not seen her in styling like this before, so I'm excited for the MV and song!


Linarnaque

genuinely thought this was an xg concept pic at first glance tbh i dont like the pic but at the same time it makes me curious abt the song so thats good, its her first non yg projects so well finally see what type of music she wants to make


Esmiella

oh wow i forgot how annoying people were abt blackpink here


justanotherkpoppie

Nah fr 😭


Philosecfari

Bruh I couldn’t even tell it was Lisa and the first thing that came to mind when scrolling past was “wow that’s some bad editing.” Sometimes bad editing’s just bad editing.


Esmiella

there’s a difference between a stylistic choice and bad editing and it’s not the latter


Philosecfari

My main point is that it missed for me not because it’s Lisa. My brother in christ I couldn’t even tell it was her and I’m pretty sure it’s the same for most people in here that aren’t a fan of this photo. Not everything is hate to get pressed about.


Gujonpyo

Literally they’re never happy😭


Vast_Implement_8537

Oh I'm surprised by a lot of the comments in here. I think its a good teaser, definitely got me more curious about what the sound and MV aesthetic will be like.


B3rgmann

Wow! This concept looks amazing! Idk why so many hate here... Y2K vibe ngl/


somi154

I like it, I get it isn't everyone's cup of tea but knowing reddit the negative reactions are mainly because she's a Blackpink member, if this wasn't Lisa...the tone of discussion would be different.


justanotherkpoppie

100%, like if this was XG people would be eating it up


TreePretty

Me as a BLINK and ALPHA, plate is full and I'm so unbothered :)


Fullmooninnight

Lisa is coming


aetelepathy

ok i didn't like her hair but i didn't expect some of these comments


boringestlawyer

This looks nothing like Lisa so if that’s what they were going for they nailed it but I mean I literally didn’t recognize her Edit: to clarify I’m not hating on her. You can check my comment history I’m always polite towards Lisa. I genuinely did not recognize her- I think it’s the blue eye filter and the wonky proportions of the accessories. People are saying XG but I see Rico Nasty


bdragonst_

Rico Nasty did collab with XG so there’s that.


area17alien

okay who else read rochstar ?? can't be just my partially blind ass


Background_Good_5397

Didn't recognise her tbh


WonPika

Wow, you can really see her melanin. Is this the benefit of leaving a Korean label? She would have been at least two shades lighter if this was YG.


justanotherkpoppie

I forgot how much this sub doesn't like BP, was about to comment that this look is wild but I'm here for it and then saw all the comments 😭


Zoshi2200

Keri Hilson in the house


Physical-Bath-8545

So glad the picture depicts her natural skintone and isn’t whitewashed


WoostaTech1865

It looks like if Kris Jenner grew a mullet

Uhnmmmmm really not a fan.


Juunlar

Fashion mullets are officially back


justanotherkpoppie

And I am living for it, I gotta send this to my friend who loves mullets and K-pop lol


Randomgrunt4820

Legend goes, she still trying to get that thing off her teeth.


EezoManiac

Nothing like BP discourse on this sub to remind me why I'm glad this sub doesn't see much BP discourse.


justanotherkpoppie

Right? Like damn...


PravdaLibrae

I thought its cupcakke omg


somehardfeelings

this looks ai made


coconuts19_

it’s not, it was made by Jack Bridgland who’s known for photoshoots like this. [Examples](https://www.instagram.com/p/C2uahpONe_9/?igsh=OTNlZGl4OWJucXJ2). Y’all call everything ai I fear


justanotherkpoppie

Thank you for the examples! I love his photography so it's exciting he collabed with Lisa 😍


lepidopt-rex

So he’s basically shooting the young, rich and famous. Get that bag, Lisa!


ellemu0509

💯 [Ateez](https://www.instagram.com/p/CyBdmiAtO7Z/?igsh=MWowdmQ2ZHl0MDJ5eg==) had similar photos by the same photographer. Wonder if everyone was speaking negatively about their photos as well… I highly doubt they were 😒


justanotherkpoppie

In what way??


SXNSHINE99

It doesn't.


ayanakamuraa

it literally does not


alexturnerftw

I dont like it but I keep saying that XG is allowed their cringey schtick but Lisa always gets dragged for the same thing by the same people lol. Now with this styling, its even more apparent


u1tr4me0w

XG regularly gets dragged on Twitter for being cringe so I wouldn’t say they’re totally allowed depending on the crowd lol


alexturnerftw

I meant reddit! Not sure about twitter honestly cuz I dont use it, but I believe it!


triplel8540

I was so excited and still am but I do not like this at all ugh


ajusnice

she looks gorgeous, the styling is super unique and cool, can't wait to hear the new music but i desparately hope she doesn't pull out the blaccent in her songs 😭


Rhan1204

i cant believe her company accepted this as one of her teaser pics. one of the worst ive seen.


SapphireHeaven

Damn what an epic teaser photo! Girl knows how to grab your attention! The styling and accessories are amazing for Kpop or western standards ❤️‍🔥


JAYJO63

Her original skin tone without lightening her skin, she looks good


Routine-Beyond-3226

I don't think this is completely natural.


Muffinyum

She looks so different here.. she looks amazing 🩷 I dig it 🤷🏽‍♀️🖤


Littleloose

I am really curious about what this will sound like. The snippet sounded a bit rock like which is a genre i don’t think she/BP has explored? (Correct if wrong)


Dry_Faithlessness714

People are allowed not to like it. I was hoping for better things from her. THIS? I don't. I'll wait for the song though to see but if it's everything she's been criticized about in the past then yeah no thanks


lolnoob1459

Wouldn't have known it was her without the title.


SnooPeanuts9263

XG girl vibes


4am_drive

idk what y'all are on, this looks sick.


Fifesterr

It's a divisive style you either like or don't like. Fans should touch some grass. Post something positive to counter the comments that don't like it, instead of just another barrage of "this sub doesn't like blackpink 😭"


formalcatlover

I like it. I hope that have personality, not that manufactured thing like “Money”

I’ll just pretend I didn’t see this and look forward to the song

Does it bother anyone else how hyper manufactured some of these appearances are? Just seems so fake, a big act, something deep down they probably hate. Totally owned by a corporation. All for what? To look back 5-10 years from now and say geez that wasn’t me at all what was I doing?


SXNSHINE99

I don't know where this is going but I'm here for it. She knows how to garner attention. I am loving this era as a Blink.
