On February 28, Lisa released Alter Ego, and netizens paid attention to her track called “Dream.”

In particular, the lyrics sparked attention as Lisa seemingly spoke about heartache.

Are you happy? Are you sad?
Are you always gonna hate me for that night in Tokyo?
When it ended, I kinda hoped that it’d be open-ended
But you never looked back

Along with the specific mention of Tokyo, Lisa references 2019.

Unsurprisingly, it sparked a lot of speculations about who Lisa could be referring to.

hear me out. i’m gonna sound like a delusional chaelisa rn but idgaf. these lyrics?! that one interview where rosie said if she and lisa met in australia, they’d be able to “live freely”. 2019 being chaelisa’s best year, rosie constantly travelling, rose street being in melbourne pic.twitter.com/s75Hwzob8H

Even on TikTok, the line became a hot topic.

WHO HURTS MY GIRLS FR ????? #blackpink #fyp #lisa #lalisa #alterego #dream

While some speculated about the person, others were just surprised at how open the BLACKPINK members were about past relationships. Some thought it might not be a romantic relationship, but it was just one she had experienced in her life.

While the lyrics could stem from personal, romantic feelings, they could also be more general. They have definitely had an impact on fans.
