BLACKPINK’s Lisa, who is on a world tour with her band, made it to the headlines for a reason that no one saw coming. In a photo going viral on social media, the singer and rapper was spotted with actor and singer Suho, who is a member of the K-pop group EXO. The pairing took fans of both idols by surprise, as they never expected them to be acquainted, let alone hang out together.
In the picture, the two idols were seen with a group of other people, who were raising their canned drinks in a cheer. All of them were thoroughly enjoying the moment. While Suho, born Kim Jun Myeon, was seen wearing a grey t-shirt with a black cap that covered half of his face, Lisa, on the other hand, was only partially visible in the image. Still, fans recognised her.
As soon as the photo surfaced on social media, their Korean fans started expressing surprise at seeing Lisa and Suho in the same frame. While some joked about the EXO member’s “wide network of friends," others asked if the two met at a Bvlgari event, as both are the ambassadors for the luxury jewellery brand. Another section was just surprised to see Lisa and Suho together.
As for their work front, Lisa is currently on BLACKPINK’s new world tour, titled Deadline. The group embarked on their tour on July 5 at the Goyang Stadium in South Korea, and even debuted their new single Jump on their first show. Following this, BLACKPINK is set to begin the US leg of their tour from July 12. They have multiple shows scheduled across Europe and Asia before concluding the tour on January 25, 2026, at the Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong. Besides their group songs, the four members have also included their recent solo hits in their set list for their Deadline World Tour.
Apart from her group activities, Lisa also released her first solo album, Alter Ego, in February and made her acting debut with the third season of the popular American series The White Lotus.
Speaking of Suho, the South Korean singer and actor successfully wrapped up his first solo tour earlier this year. He embarked on the tour, Su: Home, in May 2024. After multiple shows across Asia and Europe, the 34-year-old K-pop idol concluded the tour with the 2025 SUHO CONCERT ENCORE in January at the Handball Arena in Seoul’s Olympic Park.
