BLACKPINK and TWICE are often seen as each other's toughest competitors in the K-pop scene.

People in these two groups were thought to not get along because they were in competition with each other in their jobs.

In spite of what people thought, though, BLACKPINK and TWICE members are actually close.

Chaeyoung has known Jennie and Rosé for a long time and is close with them, while Nayeon is close with Jisoo.

Lastly, Lisa from BLACKPINK and Mina from TWICE are both known to be best friends. They are part of the "97-line female idol friend group."

This made a lot of people on the internet very happy on January 12 in the afternoon when pictures of Lisa and Mina shopping together showed up.

The girls didn't wear any makeup either, which showed that they were at ease with each other.

Mina stands out with her fair skin and stylish black Miu Miu jacket, while Lisa's fluffy white jacket makes her seem like the younger sister who lives next door.

Even stranger, Lisa wore a Bottega Veneta bag that cost $4,500 and an ALANUI jacket that cost more than $2,000 while she was shopping.

What people have to say about this:

The friends of the same age are back together, and I'm so glad to see their bond grow.

People often put TWICE and BLACKPINK against each other, but it looks like the members are very close.

Lisa from BLACKPINK and Mina from TWICE?

What a strong relationship…

Have you seen how much Lisa's outfit costs? I was shocked.

They are not makeup-free and hanging out without a camera!

That shows how close they are as friends.
