Korean Blinks (fans of BLACKPINK), however, express a sense of missing the familiar. Comments on online forums range from “a bit disappointed, not K-Pop enough” to “love the concept, but miss the BLACKPINK flavor.”
This isn’t to say “Rockstar” isn’t well-received. The song’s undeniable swagger and Lisa’s captivating performance are getting global praise. But for some Korean fans, the K-Pop identity remains a cherished aspect of BLACKPINK’s music.
One fan commented, “This is clearly not targeted towards Korean audiences, and that’s okay! It’s great to see Lisa exploring her roots.” Another chimed in, “Maybe a full K-Pop comeback is next? We can dream, right?”

“Rockstar” marks a bold step for Lisa, showcasing her artistic growth and global appeal. While it might not quench the thirst for a classic BLACKPINK banger for some Korean fans, it undeniably paves the way for a more diverse and exciting future for the K-Pop superstar.
