Netizens quickly hit back at the criticism, claiming that people were just hating, and after claiming K-Pop wasn’t fun again, they turned their noses down at Lisa, who is doing something new, fresh, and different. Many also shared how forced the hate was, adding that because it was Lisa, the concept was getting hate while other artists would be praised.
