BLACKPINK’s Lisa is captivating audiences once again, this time with her venture into the world of cinematic storytelling. The global superstar has released the trailer for her upcoming short film, “DREAM,” which features Japanese actor and model Kentaro Sakaguchi. The project is a visual interpretation of “DREAM,” a B-side from her first full-length solo album, ALTER EGO.
The short film is an emotionally charged glimpse into a poignant love story. It portrays Lisa and Kentaro Sakaguchi as a couple grappling with the end of their relationship, interweaving nostalgic flashbacks with scenes of their heartbreaking separation. The trailer’s melancholic tone is amplified by lines like, “All good things must come to an end,” and a sense of longing as they share one last look.
This collaboration has generated immense excitement among fans, who have been speculating about the project for weeks. Rumors began circulating after a series of online interactions and sightings linking the two artists. Sakaguchi, a prominent figure in Japanese entertainment known for his roles in films like The 100th Love with You, was even spotted at a BLACKPINK concert in South Korea.
“DREAM” marks another step in Lisa’s expanding career, which has seen her achieve global success as a singer and rapper, and more recently, a breakout acting role in the hit series The White Lotus. The short film not only showcases her versatility but also highlights a rare cross-cultural collaboration, blending the worlds of K-pop and Japanese cinema.
