LISA from BLACKPINK made history on June 13 (Vietnam time) as the first female K-pop artist to perform at the 2026 World Cup opening ceremony held at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Wearing a sporty white outfit with subtle cutout details, the 1997-born artist performed 'Goals' alongside artists Anita and Lema, showcasing captivating dance moves and impressive hip movements. LISA became not only the first K-pop female artist but also the first Thai artist to perform at a FIFA World Cup opening ceremony. Her appearance drew roaring cheers from the audience, and the performance garnered widespread praise across social media and international media for her vocals, choreography, and stage presence. The outfit choice was considered well-suited for a large-scale sporting event with diverse audiences. However, some noted the performance was relatively safer compared to her previous solo stages, with certain fans expressing they had anticipated a more explosive performance given LISA's renowned stage control abilities.
