Fans Unhappy as BLACKPINK's Lisa Can't Reveal Her Face on CLC's Sorn's Vlog
Fans were delighted after CLC's Sorn uploaded a new vlog on her YouTube channel, featuring Elkie and her Thai idol friends, including BLACKPINK's Lisa!
However, it was a bittersweet encounter for everyone as the BLACKPINK member couldn't even show her face in the video.
The video was taken during Elkie's stay in Hong Kong, along with the squad consisting of Thai K-pop idols. In the video, Elkie, CLC's Sorn, (G)I-DLE's Minnie, as well as Lisa, meet up to have a Thai-cuisine lunch together.

Since they are often busy, the time they get to spend together is precious. This interaction of the idols melted the hearts of their viewers and subscribers. It was also rare to see idols from different companies or groups to hang out with one another, with pure friendship only and no rivalry.
Fans, however, were a bit dismayed when throughout the less than 8-minute video, Lisa's face was not even shown. It was also noticeable that Sorn was trying hard to avoid filming the superstar. Lisa took the camera and played as the videographer instead.
The restriction on showing the face of Lisa was earlier explained in the video by CLC's Sorn, saying, "Lisa can't show her face, but her voice is fine."

Due to this, BLINKs were not happy and alluded to this as how YG Entertainment treats the BLACKPINK member, wherein she can't even hang out with her friends freely. BLINKs then claimed that Lisa's agency was being greedy, as they can't reveal her face even with friends' vlogs without payment or contract.
Fans commented that it was the same case for the other BLACKPINK's members as well, wherein they have to wear a mask or shoot half of their body only because of the strict YG's terms. Fans also think that this is to prevent unauthorized use of the members' videos or appearances.
On another note, viewers don't have a choice but to enjoy the video even with only Lisa's voice, who seemed to have enjoyed their lunch nonetheless. CLC's Sorn, Elkie, and (G) I-DLE's Minnie's visuals and charms can honestly fill the void.

Meanwhile, to see more of Lisa's content, fans are free to visit their official YouTube channel, featuring the members' scheduled activities, behind-the-scenes clips and performances. Previously, the global K-pop group achieved another milestone in their career, being the Most Subscribed Music Group not only in Asia but in the world! Not to mention that they are the first K-pop group to reach 34.1 Million subscribers on YouTube. Currently, they are on the 9th rank for a Music artist with most subscribers, and the fourth female artist by rank.
The idols defeated the former artist in the position with 34 million subscribers, who's now at the 10th place: she is the superstar Rihanna.
BLACKPINK's Music videos, "DDU-DU-DDU-DU" and "Kill This Love," both gained 12 million likes and it was another achievement for the idols. This just proves that the female group is not only influential physically but digitally as well.
