BLACKPINK's Lisa and Thai Actor Blue Spark Dating Rumors Again After Coinciding Japan Trip Posts

Dating rumors involving BLACKPINK member Lisa (리사) and Thai actor Blue (블루) have reignited after Blue recently shared photos from a trip to Japan on Instagram. The timing of his posts, which closely followed Lisa's previously shared Kyoto pictures, has led to speculation among netizens, with some even accusing him of 'clout chasing' off Lisa's fame.

Lisa had previously shared several photos on Instagram from her trip to Kyoto, Japan, garnering significant attention from fans. Shortly after, Blue also posted pictures on social media that appeared to be taken in Japan. The overlap in both posting times and locations has once again linked the two celebrities in the ongoing dating speculation.

However, once these photos were reposted on X (formerly Twitter), the focus of netizens shifted from whether the two were traveling together to Blue's motives for posting. Many users criticized the actor, suggesting he was deliberately using the recent dating rumors to gain exposure. Comments included accusations of 'clout chasing' and 'seeking attention.'

One netizen questioned, "Lisa just posted these photos, and you immediately post? Are you looking for attention or what?" Another sarcastically remarked, "This is another level of attention-seeking. He's shamelessly exploiting these dating rumors; it's truly pathetic."

Some users also suggested Blue was trying to boost his public profile through the rumors, commenting, "He really wants everyone to know he's the male lead. He took so many photos just to get attention and recognition." One netizen even directly attacked his music, quipping, "Lisa can't save your struggling career because you and your music are both terrible."

Neither Lisa nor Blue have officially confirmed their relationship. Whether they actually traveled to Japan together cannot be verified solely through social media photos, meaning the 'joint trip to Japan' and related relationship claims remain purely speculative among netizens.

Previously, Lisa was rumored to be dating Frédéric Arnault, son of the LVMH chairman and CEO of TAG Heuer. However, since late last year, the two have rarely been seen together at public events or during private outings. Speculation about a potential breakup or separation began circulating earlier this year.

More recently, Lisa took a vacation to Utah, USA, during a break from work and shared multiple travel photos on social media. In the pictures, she was seen enjoying her holiday in a bikini. One photo notably zoomed in on her waist, clearly showing a 'BABY' tattoo near her hip bone, marking a rare close-up public display of the tattoo's full appearance.

As these photos emerged amid escalating dating rumors between Lisa and Blue, many netizens immediately speculated whether 'BABY' held a special meaning, interpreting it as a subtle 'love code' from Lisa. However, Lisa herself has not responded to these conjectures.

Now, Blue's latest posts of alleged Japan photos, coinciding with Lisa's Kyoto trip, have once again brought their rumored relationship into the spotlight. However, beyond public photos and netizen speculation, there is currently no direct evidence to confirm that the two are dating or traveled together.
