Jisoo "recovered" her reputation thanks to 5 minutes of shining in a supporting role, despite being taken advantage of?

The Complete Reader - the work ranked as the most anticipated blockbuster at the Korean box office in the second half of 2025 has officially been released in its home country. Accordingly, Jisoo (BLACKPINK) also participated in a role in the film and was unexpectedly praised for only 5 minutes of shining.

Omniscient Reader is a project adapted from the famous webtoon of the same name, set in a world that suddenly turns into a survival novel, where only one person - reader Kim Dok Ja knows the story's developments in advance.

Starring Ahn Hyo Seop and Lee Min Ho as the male leads, the film promises to be a thrilling, action-packed, and psychological journey.

And Jisoo only played a supporting role in the film, but she appeared on the poster and was frequently mentioned during the early stages of the promotion process. It was only when Jisoo had a schedule with BLACKPINK that she disappeared from the film's promotion process. The fact that she was only a supporting role but was constantly mentioned too much caused netizens to fiercely debate whether the film crew was taking advantage of the female idol's reputation.

Now that Toan Tri Doc Gia has officially debuted, netizens have discovered that Jisoo actually only has about 5 minutes of screen time, appearing at the end of the film, when the film has gone about 2/3 of the length. She appears to support the main characters in the most important battle. The relatively short screen time has disappointed many people, but others have many positive reviews, saying that Jisoo successfully shines in just 5 minutes.

On the X platform, countless comments praised Jisoo's performance, saying that this was definitely the most shining 5 minutes of her acting career after many years of being involved in controversial fields. In particular, Jisoo's crying scene in the film was also considered a highlight of the overall work, causing great surprise to the audience.

Some reviews from Korean audiences about Jisoo after watching the movie: "Lee Jihye appeared after 1 hour and 10 minutes, right at the key moment to support the main group. She was really cool, acted very well, pronounced clearly and had no problems at all. Ignore the negative criticisms from the media! The moment Jisoo cried made me choke up too", "I see many people criticize Jisoo quite harshly, but in fact her time in the movie is not much, there are still scenes that leave an impression and express genuine emotions. Overall, it's okay. Maybe many people just watched the trailer and rushed to attack her for no reason".

Up to now, when entering the acting field, Jisoo has had 6 movies in hand but has not really made a splash.

Previously, singer Jisoo (member of Blackpink) received many negative reactions from the audience because of her performance in the new film project " Newtopia ". The first two episodes of the film Newtopia have aired. In it, Jisoo plays the main role with actor Park Jung Min. This is the second time the Blackpink member has tried her hand at film, after the TV project Snowdrop.

However, the audience did not have a positive response to Jisoo's role. The 30-year-old beauty was criticized by a part of the audience for her acting and unnatural dialogue. Besides, there were also comments saying that her expressions were too exaggerated, and her performance in the emotional scenes was not really natural.

However, there are also opinions defending Jisoo, explaining that, compared to the previous project, the acting of the eldest member of Blackpink has improved a lot, especially the ability to act with her eyes.

The work attracted attention because the script combined horror and romance genres with humorous scenes. Currently, Newtopia has set a record for the highest number of viewers in the history of the online movie platform Coupang Play.

The film also received high ratings from the audience. On IMDb, the first two episodes of the film scored 8.8/10 and 9.6/10 respectively.
