Famous film director Bong Joon Ho is facing backlash from BLACKPINK Lisa’s fans after his recent interview.
During a BuzzFeed Celeb interview, Bong Joon Ho was asked about his favorite K-pop group, and he immediately responded, “BLACKPINK”.
However, when asked about his favorite member, he said, “Rosé, Jisoo, Jennie, everyone,” without mentioning Lisa’s name.
The interview, known for its fun concept where celebrities play with puppies, also had Bong Joon Ho talking about his upcoming movie Mickey 17. But this small moment sparked anger among some Thai BLACKPINK fans.

These fans accused the director of racism, saying, “Why did he leave out the only foreign member?” and “This is discrimination!” Some even posted harsh comments attacking him online.
However, many netizens found the reaction extreme. Some defended Bong Joon Ho, saying, “He probably just forgot, it’s not that deep,” “Calling it racism over this is too much,” and “People are overreacting. He even knows BLACKPINK, which is already impressive!”
What do you think? Was it an innocent mistake or something more?
