BLACKPINK’s LISA stepped away from the concert stage and into a Japanese variety-show adventure. On October 30, she joined Snow Man for an outdoor segment of TBS’s Sore Snow Man ni Yarasete Kudasai (それSnow Manにやらせて下さい). It marked her first location shoot for a Japanese variety program, with food, shopping and an unexpected dance collaboration all on the itinerary.
LISA was no stranger to the program. In March 2025, she appeared as a judge for its dance-copy competition. Her return took her out of the studio and into the streets, where the camera followed her reactions rather than a rehearsed stage performance.

From a sea urchin restaurant to the capsule-toy shelves
Snow Man members Ryota Miyadate and Koji Mukai accompanied LISA on the outing, with Raul joining the dance collaboration. The stops reflected some of her interests, giving viewers a chance to see her enjoying Japan away from the usual promotional schedule.
The group visited a restaurant specializing in sea urchin, one of LISA’s favorite foods, before exploring a capsule-toy shop. Instead of concentrating on the star’s music career, the segment followed her curiosity as she tried food and browsed the rows of toy machines.
These were ordinary activities made entertaining by the guests’ reactions. For fans who usually see LISA in music videos or on tour, the informal setting offered a different side of her personality.
Thai conversation and an unexpected guest
Koji Mukai also spoke Thai with LISA during the outing. Their exchange added a personal touch to a show that brought a Thai-born K-pop star together with Japanese entertainers.
Comedian and bodybuilder Nakayama Kinnikun made a surprise appearance, prompting LISA to exclaim “Crazy!” The moment was one of the highlights teased by TBS ahead of the broadcast.
LISA joins Snow Man for “Charisma Max”
The day ended with a dance collaboration. LISA teamed up with Miyadate, Mukai and Raul for Snow Man’s “Charisma Max” (カリスマックス), bringing her performance skills into the playful variety-show setting. A separate collaboration also featured LISA’s “SaWaDiKa,” as highlighted by Sony Music Japan.
The collaboration had a different feel from a formal concert stage. After a day of food, shopping and surprises, LISA joined the Snow Man members for a short dance that fans could watch again through the group’s official social media.
A return to the show, not a Japanese television debut
This was LISA’s first Japanese variety location shoot, not her Japanese television debut. She had appeared on Sore Snow Man ni Yarasete Kudasai as a dance-competition judge in March 2025. The new episode aired on October 30, 2026, from 7:00 to 8:55 p.m. JST, as part of a special broadcast.
The same episode also featured a studio ranking of notable past guests. Names including BTS’s V and Jung Kook appeared in that retrospective; they were not participants in LISA’s location segment. The outing centered on LISA, selected Snow Man members and the invited surprise guest.

Where to watch the official episode

On stage, LISA is known for polished choreography and a commanding presence. This time, viewers saw her enjoying food, reacting to surprises and sharing a dance with Snow Man. It was a lighter, more conversational television appearance, with just enough music to bring the day back to what she does best.
