Jisoo (BlackPink) is constantly clinging, rejected from cooperation now turned away by his hometown fans

Jisoo's role in the new film was suddenly hotly discussed by Korean netizens. Many opinions said that the acting ability of the eldest sister BlackPink will hardly be able to take on the "heavy" main role.

As YTN Star reported on August 31, Jisoo will play the female lead in the zombie-themed Korean drama "Influenza." Her co-star will most likely be Park Jung Min – an actor born in 1987 who has a lot of acting experience and is highly appreciated for his role-playing ability.

Both Jisoo's agency Park Jung Min, SEM Company and YG Entertainment, confirmed that they had been invited to star in the project. While the eldest BlackPink sister has accepted the offer, Park Jung Min's side is still considering whether to accept or not.

As soon as this news was widely spread, it quickly became a hot topic of discussion in the Korean online community. While many fans are happy to know Jisoo is about to return to the small screen after a long absence. Others questioned, is the eldest BlackPink sister capable of taking on the lead role in this movie?

"I'm surprised she's acting so badly," "I guess she wants to make a name for herself more in movies," "I like Jisoo, but her voice isn't suitable for acting. I hope she practices a lot to improve. I don't want to see her criticized", "With Jisoo's acting, how did she get the lead role?", "Jisoo just goes singing?";

"I don't think Jisoo is a good actor but there are a lot of harsh comments," "Please don't ruin projects by giving roles to people who don't know how to act. If the other actors do well, Jisoo's shortcomings in acting become even more apparent." are a few comments left by netizens.

Remember at the end of 2021, the idol born in 1995 first encroached on acting with the female lead role in the movie "Snowdrop" co-starring Jung Hae In. At this time, Jisoo received quite positive feedback from international fans, but the hometown audience spared no criticism of her.

They commented that Jisoo's pronunciation was hard to hear, and viewers had to read the subtitles to understand what she was saying. And yet, according to many viewers, the female idol spoke quite clumsily, her expression was too exaggerated and somewhat forced, even mocking Jisoo for getting the lead role thanks to BlackPink's popularity.

Besides, another department also repeatedly criticized YG Entertainment for choosing a script that did not suit Jisoo. They said that the female idol had just tried her hand at a new field, her experience was still young, and the office took the lead role in a film on the topic of politics and thorny war is not satisfactory. Fans believe that Jisoo should act in a gentle, romantic movie that does not require too much acting skills will be better.

Despite some noise, the drama still achieved good airplay and Jisoo was recognized by professionals. In early 2020, she received the "Best Rookie Actress" award at the Ddu Korean Drama Awards.

The "Flower" hitmaker was honored at the Seoul International Drama Awards in September of the same year with the "Outstanding Actress" award. However, netizens still did not spare her, they vehemently protested the result and judged Jisoo unworthy of the award.

However, when accepting the invitation to return to the small screen after 2 years, maybe the eldest BlackPink sister has quietly improved her acting ability and is eager to prove to the audience what about progress. Therefore, to be fair, we have every right to expect Jisoo's new role in "Influenza" and support her instead of digging up the past that happened a long time ago.

"Influenza," adapted from author Han Sang-woon's novel of the same name, is set in an air defense unit located in a high-rise building in Seoul, depicting how soldier Jae Yoon (expected to play Park Jung-min) and his girlfriend Yeong-joo (Jisoo), run towards each other while fighting zombies.

It was penned by screenwriters Han Ji-won and Ji Ho-jin, produced by Blade Entertainment and aired on Coupang Play. Yoon Seong Hyun is directing. Notably, Han Ji Won is the writer of the hit work "Parasite" that won 4 Oscars in 2020.
