Blackpink’s Lisa has been reported to have made an official statement regarding the backlash against the video clips when she was a trainee and sang along to rapping songs that featured a racial slur word. As per reports, the statement can be seen in her new documentary, Always Lalisa, which had its first show in the Toronto International Film Festival. As reported by many online posts, Lisa mentioned that she was very young, she had just shifted to Korea from Thailand and didn’t know about the history behind the word.

Explains What Happened During Her Trainee Years

As per the reports on the documentary, Lisa mentioned that these videos were shot during her initial phase of being a trainee. It was the time when she had just come from Thailand to South Korea and did not know much English.

She mentioned that she was told to sing rap songs in order to evaluate her performance and learned those lyrics without knowing the actual significance of the term. This has caused a renewed interest in the videos that had earlier been floating online.

Lisa Says She Wanted To Address The Controversy Earlier

The most noteworthy aspect of the reported conversation in the documentary is that Lisa mentioned how she wanted to make a public statement on the issue after she learned what the word meant.

As per the reports, Lisa wanted to solve the problem via LLOUD, which is the name of her company that she started for her individual pursuits. However, she was said to have been told by YG Entertainment that speaking publicly would further worsen the problem.
