Jisoo, a member of the group Black Pink and an actress, has once again faced controversy over her acting skills in the Netflix series "Monthly Boyfriend." The series was released on the 6th, and she played the role of Seo Mirae, a webtoon PD tired of reality. "Monthly Boyfriend" is a romantic comedy genre that allows viewers to experience love through a virtual dating simulation, and Jisoo is leveraging her strengths through this work.

In the drama, Jisoo attracted viewers' attention by showcasing her lovely visuals and charm. However, criticism of her acting skills still exists. In particular, shortcomings in vocalization and emotional expression have been pointed out, leading to controversy over her acting. Jisoo feels the weight of being the lead actress, but she is still evaluated as not meeting expectations regarding her acting skills.

Director Kim Jeong-sik expressed anticipation, saying that viewers will be able to see Jisoo's growth. Jisoo plays the protagonist living an ordinary life and is trying to establish empathy with the audience. However, viewers have left comments such as "watchable" and "not irritating" about her acting, while pointing out a lack of immersion compared to other actors.

Reactions from overseas media are relatively positive. Time magazine in the United States described it as "a tailor-made role that suits Jisoo best." In the global market, Jisoo is establishing herself as a leading figure in K-romantic comedies, effectively utilizing her charm within the work. Nevertheless, controversy over her acting skills continues to hold her back.

Since debuting with Black Pink in 2016, Jisoo began her path as an actress with the JTBC drama "Snowdrop" in 2021. From her first project, she took on lead roles, raising both expectations and concerns. Although she has built up her acting skills through several leading roles, controversy over her acting has not ceased.

Jisoo revealed her determination for acting by sharing behind-the-scenes moments from the work. On her Instagram, she posted several photos with the phrase "Sneak peek of Monthly Boyfriend's future." These photos show Jisoo with the male actors she worked with in "Monthly Boyfriend."

Black Pink continues their activities, having released their third mini-album "DEADLINE" on the 27th of last month. Jisoo is pursuing achievements in both group activities and acting simultaneously. However, controversy over her acting skills still casts a shadow over her career.

Ultimately, Jisoo has the opportunity to overcome the acting controversy and establish her presence through "Monthly Boyfriend." However, public expectations regarding her acting remain high. It appears that Jisoo will need to work even harder in future projects to meet these expectations.
