BLACKPINK’s Lisa Reacts to Album Leaks
Recently, at the press conference prior to the release of her album, BLACKPINK’s Lisa directly addressed the issues of her album being leaked before the release date. In particular, Lisa mentioned the leaks, before revealing her feelings and adding that her team is working on the issue.
“It was pretty disappointing. We’re all sad about it. But, thank you for showing your love. Our team jumped right into it”, the female idol said.
Additionally, previously in fancall event on February 25, Lisa, who heard about the leaks for this first time, was unable to hide her shock, saying, “It’s leak though. Really? What?”, before showing a frustrated expression.
Meanwhile, the leakage of music before its official release happens frequently and is a major issue for many international artists. This incident can stem from various causes, such as hackers breaking in and stealing music files from the artist, or leaks occurring during the distribution of physical albums. Fans have pointed out that Lisa’s album was leaked due to transportation loopholes from distribution units. Despite not being officially released, some distributors had already put the album on shelves, and some people even received the physical album early, listened to it in advance, and uploaded review videos on various platforms.
Official Response from Agency
Responding to the ongoing leaks, LLOUD, the person label of Lisa, has published an official statement on their Instagram story.
In particular, the agency wrote that they are working swiftly and diligently with RCA Records (the distribution company for Lisa in the US) to take the appropriate action.
Rosé’s Fan Behind the Leak?
On the other hand, a netizen suspected to be a fan of BLACKPINK’s Rosé previously leaked the whole digital recording of Lisa’s album on SNS, sparking heated response.

Below are some comments from netizens:
1. I saw on Twitter that Rose‘s akgaes (term for a fan who likes only one member of a music group and hates the others) also leaked Jisoo’s album before and were fighting with Jisoo’s fans. Is that true? And now they’re trying to pin it on Jennie’s fans, so they’re fighting with them too. Are they trying to become the most hated fandom on BLACKPINK forums or what? What are they even doing?
2. Turning a blind eye and calling it “instigation” can only go so far. Leaking an album is seriously crossing the line. There are things you can do and things you just shouldn’t. Please, just stop messing with others. This is honestly so messed up.
3. Rose akgaes are seriously unbearable ㅋㅋㅋ So according to them, the person who leaked it isn’t at fault, but Lisa and her staff, who sent it out first, are to blame? That’s some next-level victim-blaming logic.
4. Ah, seriously, I don’t even want to get involved in akgae fights, but this is making me so mad. Seeing Lisa’s expression change in real-time during her Bubble live today just made it worse. She was literally holding back tears while saying she worked hard on this album for over a year… Like, what did Lisa even do wrong? Fans were all excited, and then this mess had to ruin the moment. It’s honestly infuriating.
5. I’ve always said this — even before solo activities, it was Rose’s akgaes stirring up fan wars on the forums. They take advantage of the tension between Jennie and Lisa’s fandoms so they don’t get suspected.
