Rumors of a romance between Blackpink member Lisa, 29, and Thai actor and model Blue Pontiwat, 26 — often called "Thailand's Cha Eun-woo" — have resurfaced.
Photos and videos showing a man and woman believed to be Lisa and Blue Pontiwat walking together on the streets of London have circulated on overseas online communities and SNS in recent days.
The woman in the footage wears a beige trench coat and black hat, walking arm in arm with the man. Their faces are not clearly visible, however, and it has not been confirmed whether the two are in fact Lisa and Blue Pontiwat.
This is not the first time the pair have been linked romantically. Blue Pontiwat is said to have attended Lisa's birthday party in March, and sightings of the two together have since been reported in Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan. In July, claims emerged that Lisa and her family had dined with Blue Pontiwat in Bangkok.
Neither Lisa nor Blue Pontiwat has issued an official statement on the latest rumors. Some observers note that, given the two are longtime friends, it is difficult to conclude from sightings alone that they are in a relationship.
Meanwhile, Blue Pontiwat is a Thai actor and model born in 2000, making him three years younger than Lisa.
