Jisoo in Newtopia

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo is at the center of an acting controversy following her role in Newtopia, a drama in which she stars alongside Park Jung Min.

The series, which tells the story of a couple rekindling their relationship after a zombie apocalypse, has been met with mixed reactions—particularly regarding Jisoo’s performance.

While international audiences have praised Jisoo’s versatility and willingness to take on new acting challenges, Korean viewers have not been as forgiving. Many have criticized her acting skills, pointing to issues with her tone, expressions, and pronunciation.

On online forums such as TheQoo, comments have been overwhelmingly negative, with some claiming that Jisoo’s acting lacks depth and that she benefited primarily from BLACKPINK’s global fame.

“She’s really bad at acting. Her voice and enunciation are also not that of an actor’s.”
“She can’t sing, but she managed to cover it up so far somehow. Now she’s moving into acting?”
“She should just focus on being an idol instead of risking her reputation.”

Despite the harsh domestic criticism, Jisoo has received support from international fans, who admire her efforts in branching out beyond music.

Many argue that she has improved since her previous acting endeavors and commend her for taking on a more challenging role in Newtopia.

This isn’t the first time Jisoo’s acting has been scrutinized. Her lead role in Snowdrop (2021) also received mixed reviews, though fans defended her performance at the time.

Regardless of the backlash, Newtopia continues to generate buzz globally, proving that Jisoo’s star power remains intact. Whether the criticism will impact her acting career moving forward remains to be seen.
