A History of Speculation: From London to Tokyo
These recent Bangkok appearances are not isolated incidents but rather the latest in a series of sightings that have fueled dating rumours between the K-pop idol and the Thai actor for months. Speculation first surfaced prominently in August 2026, with reports of Lisa and Blue Pongtiwat being spotted in various international locations. In September, a video allegedly showing them walking arm-in-arm through the streets of London widely circulated online, though some reports noted the footage wasn't entirely clear to confirm identities.
Additional unconfirmed sightings placed them together in Hong Kong and Japan, including a fan video from August 13, 2026, in Japan that was later shared online in October. Despite the persistent rumours, neither Lisa nor Blue Pongtiwat has publicly addressed the nature of their relationship, leading some fans to suggest they might simply be close friends who have known each other for an extended period.

Before the ongoing rumours with Blue Pongtiwat, Lisa was widely linked to Frédéric Arnault, the son of LVMH Chairman Bernard Arnault, starting in 2023. Reports of their potential breakup circulated earlier in 2026, particularly after Arnault's absence from Lisa's birthday celebrations and other major events in June. As the public awaits official statements, the renewed interest in Lisa and Blue Pongtiwat's connection ensures that their every move remains under the spotlight.
