At the time, the idol was hit with some criticism, but fans have called out netizens after members of HYBE groups SEVENTEEN and ENHYPEN recently made appearances in Singapore.

Yet, when the photos were posted, it sparked a wave of hate towards the idols. In particular, netizens pointed out that it was thanks to the likes of Lisa and even mentioned her rumored boyfriend, Frédéric Arnault. Netizens joked to “Thank Frédéric” because it was the belief that he was the reason that Lisa attended so it must be why other idols had the same treatment. They even added that HYBE was copying the idol, and that it wasn’t fair considering the amount of hate Lisa got when she made her appearance.

Thankyou frederic https://t.co/rf9qyIS1v7

Lisa being the first K-pop idol to go to F1 and paving the way for other artists and companies to want the same. Congratulations, K-pop matriarch, you’re the standard. https://t.co/jTv2MHjW14 pic.twitter.com/R2Pgyi6oNv
