Jisoo's new film's press conference not only promoted the work but also turned into a tense "courtroom" of public opinion. The focus of attention was on the number 250 – the number of outfits the Blackpink leader wore throughout the film. Instead of receiving admiration for the investment in her outfits, Jisoo faced a wave of harsh sarcasm from the audience. Many argued that the excessive changes in her appearance were merely a gimmick to distract viewers from her already "stiff" facial expressions.

In this virtual reality project, Jisoo takes on a multifaceted role, having to embody many different characters. However, the constant changes in clothing have led the public to question: Is this a real film or just a disguised fashion show for a member of a global girl group? Viewers are beginning to doubt the psychological depth of the character as the external elements are overemphasized, creating a feeling of "covering up" her true abilities, which are still unproven.

Faced with harsh criticism, Jisoo responded with remarkable confidence and sharp wit. She asserted that wearing 250 outfits wasn't about showing off, but rather about portraying the contrast between the exhausting reality and the colorful virtual world of her character, Mi Rae. Jisoo boldly expressed her desire to be recognized as the "goddess of romantic comedy," a direct declaration of war against the outdated stereotypes that have plagued her since she began her acting career.

The most shocking moment of the press conference was director Kim Jung Sik's statement. When asked about the female lead's abilities, he made a remark that stunned netizens: "Effort can overcome talent." This statement was immediately dissected in a negative light. Many believed the director was implicitly admitting that Jisoo lacked innate talent and could only compensate with hard work. Was this a subtle compliment or a harsh truth about the YG star's skill level?

Skepticism intensified when viewers looked at the relationship between Jisoo and her co-star Seo In Guk. Despite their sweet interactions, the gap in experience between a "master" of romantic dramas and a newcomer was all too clear. Jisoo's admission of having to "follow the guidance" of her senior colleague raised concerns about a lackluster performance, where the female lead would be merely a decorative figurehead instead of the soul of the work.

The debate over whether Jisoo's acting is "wooden" or "effortful" is far from over across social media platforms. All eyes are now on March 6th, when the drama officially airs. Will those 250 outfits be a springboard for her to shine, or will they become an excuse for viewers to criticize her for focusing only on her appearance? The final answer will rest with the audience – the most impartial judges of Jisoo's efforts to shed her idol image as a drama actress.
