The first two episodes of the series Newtopia have aired. In it, Jisoo stars alongside actor Park Jung Min. This is her second attempt at acting after the TV drama Snowdrop.
However, viewers have not been kind to Jisoo’s performance. The 30-year-old beauty has faced criticism for her acting, which some find unnatural. Some comments suggest that she overacts, especially in emotional scenes.

On the other hand, there are those who defend Jisoo, noting that compared to her previous project, she has made significant progress, particularly in her ability to convey emotion through her eyes.
Newtopia tells the story of the tumultuous romance between soldier Lee Jae Yoon (played by Park Jung Min) and office worker Kang Young Joo (played by Jisoo). Before Jae Yoon leaves for his military duty, they promise each other marriage. However, the long-distance relationship leads to conflicts.
The film has garnered attention for its unique blend of romance, horror, and humor. Currently, Newtopia holds the record for the highest number of viewers in the history of the online streaming platform Coupang Play.
The series has also received high praise from audiences. On IMDb, the ratings for the first two episodes are 8.8/10 and 9.6/10, respectively.
Jisoo (born 1995) gained fame for her beauty and singing abilities. She officially joined YG Entertainment in 2011 and debuted as a member of Blackpink in 2016.
Among the four members of Blackpink, Jisoo’s family background is the most intriguing. According to sources, she is reportedly the daughter of a prominent figure with significant influence in the Korean media industry.
Many reports suggest that her father is the CEO of a major entertainment company or television station in Korea. However, Jisoo has never confirmed these claims.

In 2024, Jisoo will join her brother’s entertainment company after ending her contract with YG Entertainment. Unlike the other members of Blackpink, Jisoo has focused more on acting and recently returned to music.
