Released simultaneously worldwide at 9 a.m. on the 4th, Lisa’s new single “Sawdika” is a pre-release track from her mini-album “Press Play,” due out Oct. 23.

The music video, directed by leading K-pop director Bang Jae-yeop, highlights Lisa’s diverse performances against the backdrop of Bangkok landmarks and has sparked an enthusiastic response.
