BLACKPINK babe Lisa’s solo material is officially on it’s way.
The K-pop group’s rapper and main dancer is the third member to share their solo work. Lisa recently got us all excited with a teaser for her forthcoming debut solo release (just behind bandmates Jennie in 2018 and Rosé earlier this year) on Instagram, simply sharing a poster of herself looking STUNNING with the words, ‘COMING SOON LISA’.
As we wait patiently for solo Lisa to drop, here’s everything we know about her career so far..
Why has Lisa chosen to go solo?
K-pop group’s agency YG Entertainment previously stated it planned on getting all BLACKPINK members do solo debuts after the release of the group’s first studio album last year - so there's no bad blood here, it's simply so they can explore their talents.
Lisa's solo work was first teased to fans back in July, as she posted some Instagram stories of herself in the recording studio.
How old is Lisa from BLACKPINK?
Lisa was born was on 27 March 1997, making her 24 years old.

Other than creating hits, what could we witness Little Mix do next? Hmm, well firstly we're putting this one out into the universe: **Little Mix could stay together forever and NEVER break up?**Fingers crossed for this one! ud83eudd7a
2 of 5Little Mix turn Hollywood actresses
Now this is something a lot more positive - and we are totally here for: Little Mix turn movie stars? YES PLEASE!It's not absurd to witness pop stars cross over to film and make their way into the world of acting, we've seen it done by the likes of Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and Harry Styles.And Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock is already one step ahead as she's just finished filming for her debut role in an upcoming movie 'Boxing Day'. Could we see Perrie and Jade follow in Leigh-Anne's footsteps? We'd seriously love to see it.
3 of 5Could Little Mix become Little Farmers?
Could we see Little Mix moving abroad and owning their own farm? Random we know but why not?__ We can already imagine the looks the girls would serve us in their plaid overalls and straw hats.When the girls ditch their pop-star duties, they're often goofing around at home and spending time with their loved ones, including their furry friends who are no strangers to the members' Instagram accounts.We know Perrie has her Pomeranian Hatchi, and her other pooch Travis. Jesy has her two Pomeranian dogs Reggie and Oscar. And Leigh-Anne has got a gorgeous pup named Kyro. Jade, however, hasn't got any furry friends. But, it's no secret that Little Mix are animal lovers, so how far-fetched really is this idea of the girls moving abroad and owning a farm? We truly can see it.
4 of 5Going solo
Could we witness Little Mix going solo? All the great girlbands do it: Destiny's Child, Fifth Harmony, The Pussycat Dolls, Girls Aloud. It would be heartbreaking to watch Little Mix dismantle but these girls have some serious all-round talent; they sing and dance. _chef's kiss_We reckon their friendship would survive going solo too but that being said, we LOVE Little Mix and would hate to see them part ways. So we're keeping our eyes on this one...
5 of 5Keeping up with Little Mix
Could Little Mix launch their own reality TV show, documenting a behind-the-scenes series of their everyday lives?The girls have done their own version of Come Dine With Me on their YouTube channel and it was EPIC. We got a sneak peek inside their homes and their normal lives. If the girls did follow in the footsteps of the Kardashians and had their own reality TV show, they certainly would not have to worry about getting views.
Where is Lisa from BLACKPINK from?
She was born in Thailand and moved to South Korea in 2011 to become a YG Entertainment trainee. In August 2016, she debuted as one of four members of South Korean girl group BLACKPINK, as well as the first non-ethnically Korean to debut under the agency.
When is Lisa’s solo project going to be released?
Well, we don't know, but as she said it herself, it's COMING SOON. Will it be a summer drop or an autumn one?
Last week, fans noticed a leaked chat had hinted that the pre-order for Lisa’s album would be starting soon. This came days after South Korea’s music chart, Melon, confirmed that Lisa would be dropping her solo stuff.
