BLACKPINK Lisa’s short film for her song Dream garnered massive critical acclaim upon its release. Fans had been waiting for it since the track was first released in the BLACKPINK member’s solo debut album titled Alter Ego. Dream is one of the most vulnerable and personal songs to be featured on the album, hence making fans anticipate its short film. The excitement only grew larger when it was revealed that Kentaro Sagakuchi, Japan’s most famous actor, would be playing the role of Lisa’s love interest in the film. 

The Dream short film features the story of a couple and the stages in their relationship. It opens with a funeral scene where Lisa’s character spots Kentaro.
