The hype for actress Jisoo of BLACKPINK is real! With all of her many upcoming projects, Jisoo is finally departing on a long voyage in the Korean filming industry. Still, all this hype also brings BLACKPINK Jisoo under the spotlight from the Korean drama community. This then resulted in unexpected criticism against BLACKPINK Jisoo, especially for her new drama with Seo In Guk, “Monthly Boyfriend.” So, what did the public say about Jisoo’s role in this project? Join us in a complete discussion below.
BLACKPINK Jisoo Faces Unexpected Criticism on New Drama with Seo In Guk, “Monthly Boyfriend”
Following her departure from YG Entertainment, BLACKPINK Jisoo finally made a name for herself in the Korean filming industry, starting with “Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint.” Since then, the BLACKPINK vocalist has joined the club as one of the most successful Korean idol-actresses in rising.
Unfortunately, every new voyage always comes with new challenges. As BLACKPINK Jisoo spreads her wings, unexpected mixed reactions and criticism started tackling her, especially in her new drama with Seo In Guk, “Monthly Boyfriend.”
Previously, BLACKPINK Jisoo was selected as the main lead for a new Korean drama by director Kim Jung Sik, “Monthly Boyfriend.” While this has ignited impressively positive fan anticipation, the issue started when Seo In Guk entered as the male lead in this drama.
On September 10, a post on the Korean online community TheQoo went viral for posting the cast update of “Monthly Boyfriend.” The post garnered intense mixed reactions from fans for this pairing.
What Happened?
While fans are incredibly excited about both celebrities and their new projects, while paired together, fans believe that Jisoo and Seo In Guk are not really compatible. And the most crucial factor of this issue is the acting gap.
Seo In Guk has been in the filming industry for over a decade. He is commendable for his versatile acting and for delivering impressively intense emotion in all his projects. His most recent dramas, “Death’s Game,” “Cafe Minamdang,” and “Doom at Your Service,” successfully captivated fans thanks to his incredible acting and chemistry with his co-stars.
In contrast, BLACKPINK Jisoo has just started acting a while ago with “Snowdrop.” Even though the drama was a massive hit, Jisoo’s acting was reportedly less than expected, with bland expressions and empty eyes.
Breathtaking Visual Chemistry VS Acting Imbalance
Therefore, while the two celebrities may be excellent individuals and form breathtaking visual chemistry, fans believe that pairing them together in a drama will only create a one-sided acting performance.
- “Jisoo is still acting.. Ah, I watch everything Seo In Guk is in, but ㅠ..”
- “Jisoo has a nice face, but… I really can’t watch because of the acting.”
- “I hope Jisoo’s acting has improved..”
- “Jisoo..? Why Jisoo, of all people…”
- “Please, I hope the acting has improved.. I don’t think the visual pairing looks bad.”
- “I really hope Jisoo acts well.. Such a waste of their looks.”
- “Please let the acting have improved..”
- “I wish Seo In Guk picked a different project… I really wanted to see him in something else.”
- “I’m a huge fan of In Guk, so I’m excited for this!”
- “It’s crazy how she keeps getting cast even though her acting isn’t great.”
- “Looks like Seo In Guk will be carrying the acting on his own…”
- “I watch everything Seo In Guk is in, but it sucks he’s paired with someone who can’t act well.”
- “Whoa, Seo In Guk is finally doing a rom-com!”
- “Honestly, they don’t look bad together.”
- “I really hope Jisoo’s improved her acting this time.”
- “Jisoo, please work on your acting ㅠㅠ. But I can’t wait to see Seo In Guk in a rom-com!”
Finally, what do you think about this issue? After all, all the dramas that Jisoo participated in involved veteran main actors with decades of career: Jung Hae In and Lee Min Ho. She even performed quite a cameo performance in “Dr. Cheon and Lost Talisman” and “Arthdal Chronicles 2.” So, please share your thoughts in the comments.

I know Jisoo is not good at acting (yet), but how can she improve if no chance given? This is a chance for her to learn from Seo In Guk too. Hope she gets better.
