On September 14, 2025, at the Peacock Theater in Downtown Los Angeles, Lisa made her first Emmys appearance in a bubblegum-pink Lever Couture gown, a choice that echoed the sacred pink lotus, a symbol of purity and resilience rising from muddy waters, mirroring Lisa’s journey and her debut character Mook in The White Lotus.

Ribbons flowed like liquid around her, a thigh-high slit slicing through the look with playful edge. Sparkling Christian Louboutin “Miss Z” pumps added a Cinderella-esque touch, while a gold Bulgari Serpenti necklace coiled around her collarbone, referencing the snake she embodied as Mook and creating a meaningful tie between her character and her red carpet styling.

The White Lotus Season 3 earned 23 Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series, tying with Apple’s The Studio as one of the most nominated programs of the year. Lisa, submitted for Best Supporting Actress, marked a potentially historic moment for K-pop idols transitioning into global television recognition. She didn’t take home Outstanding Choreography for her James Bond–themed Oscars performance with Doja Cat and Raye, but her presence felt electric, a quiet flex of versatility that resonated with Thais and fans worldwide.

Earlier this year, she reflected on the role as life-changing, admitting, “I’m so nervous; I was sweating,” revealing her dedication and vulnerability stepping into acting. Her Emmys look fused Thai heritage, her character’s essence, and her evolution as an artist expanding beyond music, holding her own alongside Hollywood’s finest.
