The viral music video, by K-pop sensation Lalisa Manoban, or “Lisa”, which attracted almost 120 million views on YouTube in the three days following its online release, has been praised by Thailand’s Ministry of Culture for helping to promote elements of Thai culture.

 

In Lisa’s first solo mini-album, the 24-year-old Thai rapper, singer, dancer and only non-ethnic Korean member of the girl group “Blackpink”, the pop idol is seen in a golden Thai dress, with an elaborate headdress, sitting on a throne at a replica of Phanom Rung Historical Park, a landmark in Lisa’s hometown of Buri Ram in north-eastern Thailand.

 

Deputy Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Culture, Prasop Riengngern, praised Lisa and Thai designer Polpat Asavaprapha, better known as “Moo ASAVA”, who is behind the headdress that she wore in “LALISA” music video, for using creativity to enhance Thai culture through fashion, which helps it to gain more recognition on the international stage.

Speaking of legs....  I've watched a few of the BlackPink music videos, however, I usually turn off the sound so that I'm not subjected to their godawful caterwauling.  ????

If she weren't Thai, the Ministry would probably have been outraged that she was blaspheming sacred Thai cultural objects in a pop music video.
