She shares how it all began.
Dua Lipa recently released her new song, “Houdini,” and to celebrate the release, she sat down with Warner Music Korea.
Greeting her Korean fans, the English Albanian singer-songwriter answered fan-submitted questions, and naturally, the topic of her collaboration with K-Pop idols was mentioned.
A fan asked, “You had Korean guests on your podcast and worked with artists. How did you make such connections with Korea?”
Dua Lipa collaborated with BLACKPINK to release their track “Kiss and Make Up” in 2018 and invited BLACKPINK’s Jennie as a special guest for an episode of her podcast Dua Lipa: At Your Service in 2023. Dua Lipa also collaborated with MAMAMOO’s Hwasa for a remix of “Physical” in 2020, and has also been spotted hanging with CL.
Dua Lipa admitted that her interest in collaborating with Korean artists began because she was “a real fan of BLACKPINK.”
In the early days of her career, she wrote “Kiss And Make Up” and sent it to BLACKPINK “on a whim,” asking if they would be interested in working on it with her.
Dua Lipa shared that it was “fun to hear the way they had translated [her] lyrics and made them their own.”
She stated it was the beginning of her connection to some “really super talented Korean artists.”
She shared that they’ve stayed friends ever since, which was how Jennie was able to join her on her podcast.
