Lisa drops a new visual for Dream with Japanese actor Kentaro Sakaguchi, trading high-octane pop for a quiet cinematic story. The release arrives amid her solo momentum tied to her debut album Alter Ego, and it’s designed to be watched like a movie, not just a music video.
Directed by Ojun Kwon, Dream opens on a mood of loss and remembrance, then moves through bittersweet moments that feel like memories resurfacing. Scenes are paced with care, soft light, close frames, and stillness, letting small details do the heavy lifting. Lisa and Sakaguchi don’t oversell it; they let the silence speak. That restraint makes every look matter.
The emotion builds through intercut memories and quiet exchanges. Instead of flashy choreography, the film leans into intimacy and tone: nostalgia in the colors, tenderness in the framing, ache in the pauses. It plays like a day you can’t forget, looping back until it lands. The song’s themes of distance, time, and what remains settle in without hurry.

Dream sits within Lisa’s solo chapter under LLOUD and RCA, and it marks a deliberate shift toward filmmaking as storytelling, not just performance. Casting Sakaguchi brings cross-market energy and grounded screen presence that pairs seamlessly with Lisa’s.
Credits read like a film, not a standard MV: Ojun Kwon at the helm, Lisa and Kentaro in the leads, and a full crew across camera, lighting, art, and post. That scale shows on screen. It’s polished, patient, and confident. Dream doesn’t chase spectacle, it invites a rewatch and it lingers.
