Lisa’s $1.50 Daiso Cup Steals the Spotlight: BLACKPINK Star’s Relatable Side Wins Fans Over
BLACKPINK’sLisa is reminding everyone that even global superstars enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
On May 17, the Thai-born singer shared a cozy moment on social media: curled up with a cup of tea and the bestselling novel Pachinko. While her elegant visuals drew the expected admiration, fans quickly zoomed in on something far more surprising the Minnie Mouse character cup in her hands. What looked like a high-end accessory turned out to be a humble find from Korean discount retailer Daiso, priced at just 2,000 won (roughly $1.50).
The contrast couldn’t be sharper. According to British analytics firm Hopper HQ, Lisa’s Instagram posts command an estimated $620,000 each, fueled by her staggering 100 million-plus followers. Yet here she was, unwinding with an everyday item anyone could pick up at a local store.
Social media lit up with affectionate reactions. “She’s even more likable because she’s so down-to-earth,” one fan commented, while another admitted, “I genuinely thought it was some luxury brand collaboration.” The moment quickly spread across platforms, turning the affordable cup into an unlikely viral star.
This glimpse into Lisa’s unpretentious lifestyle comes as she prepares for another major milestone. The BLACKPINK member is set to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in June at SoFi Stadium, sharing the stage with international heavyweights like Katy Perry and Future.

In an industry often defined by opulence, Lisa’s choice resonates as a refreshing reminder that true star power doesn’t always need a price tag. Fans say it’s exactly this grounded charm that keeps her connection with millions so strong.
