Ahead of her acting debut in season 3 of The White Lotus, BLACKPINK's Lisa has been selected as one of the stars included in Vanity Fair's 2025 Hollywood issue, and she's using the chance to not only gush about her acting beginnings but also share a couple of her favorites, including her infatuation with POP MART and her latest K-drama obsession.

In her interview, Lisa revealed she watches a lot of K-dramas (hey, same here!), which has partly helped her become even more fluent in Korean. She also namechecked Love Next Door as her most recent favorite.

“I just love the combination of the guy character and the girl character,” Lisa told Vanity Fair. “They start as friends! Like, they are friends for 30 years. Those things feel so real. [K-dramas are] nothing too serious, so when I need to try to calm myself down, I watch them, and it really helps.”



Love Next Door aired from August to October earlier this year on tvN in South Korea. It also was immediately available to stream on Netflix for international audiences, where Lisa is currently watching it.

Starring Jung Haein (who previously worked with Lisa's fellow BLACKPINK member Jisoo on Snowdrop) and Jung Somin, Love Next Door follows the story of childhood friends Choi Seunghyo and Bae Seokryu as they reconnect in their 30s when the latter suddenly returns to Seoul after quitting her high-profile job and calling off her engagement.

If you are in the market for a slow-burn romance, which taps into the friends-to-lovers trope, but also the enemies-to-lovers trope, and with more than a handful of twists and turns along the way, Love Next Door is the one for you — and it clearly is the one for Lisa!

Lisa's stamp of approval is probably the ultimate sign to add Love Next Door to your Netflix watchlist if you haven't already seen it, but if you need some more convincing, we'll leave the show's trailer below:
