Rumors of a romance between Blackpink member Lisa and Thai actor Blue Pontiwat — often called the "Thai Cha Eun-woo" — are spreading rapidly on social media.
Posts raising the possibility of a relationship between Lisa and Blue Pontiwat, along with reported sightings of the two together, have been circulating quickly across online communities and social media platforms.
The pair had long been known as close friends who frequently met in Thailand, but sighting reports and photos of them spending time together abroad — in Hong Kong, Japan and elsewhere — have fueled the dating rumors.
Born in 2000, Blue Pontiwat is three years younger than Lisa and works in Thailand as an actor, singer and model. He has built a global following through appearances including the Netflix series "Ready, Set, Love." In April, he posted a photo with Lisa on his Instagram along with a congratulatory message, publicly acknowledging their close friendship.
Lisa had previously been spotted on dates with Frederic Arnault, son of LVMH chairman Bernard Arnault, in what was widely regarded as an established relationship, though neither side ever confirmed it publicly. Neither Lisa nor Blue Pontiwat has commented on the latest dating rumors.
