These days, Jisoo is making headlines as she is working on the upcoming zombie series- Influenza. Yes, we meant Blackpink’s Jisoo, whose acting skills are equally great. However, she suddenly received immense hatred, after Park Soo Ryun’s tragic death. To the newbies, the Snowdrop actress passed away at the age of 29, after a fatal fall from the stairs. It’s been a few months though.
Starting the discussion with Jisoo’s prominence, she made her debut with the Kpop girl group- Blackpink. She is signed under the YG Entertainment. However, just like most other Kpop idols, Jisoo also has a successful career as a solo artist. Did you forget about her song- “Flower”? It became so popular that it even led to a trending challenge on YouTube, where the creators copied the hook steps.
You must listen to Jisoo’s debut and only album so far – Me. It was released in March. Not to forget to mention, next month, she will turn 29. Well, Jisoo hails from Gunpo, South Korea.
On the other hand, Park Soo Ryun was an incredible South Korean actress. She gained massive recognition and fame for her portrayals in The Cellar, and The Days We Loved. Did you watch them?
You must have one question in your mind- why Jisoo? Park Soo Ryun’s untimely demise is still not acceptable to some of her fans. That’s understandable. But, what’s her relationship with the Blackpink singer? Well, the two starred in the TV series – “Snowdrop.” Here is what we know about the backlash.
Fans Showed Hatred Towards Blackpink’s Jisoo: How Is She Related To Park Soo Ryun’s Death?
Before getting onto the details of Jisoo’s backlash for this death case, one should know that Park Soo Ryun died on 11 June. Unfortunately, it was an accident and no foul play. She was in Jeju Island for work purposes. When she was rushed to the hospital, the medical experts announced her brain was dead. It was saddening enough.
Moving on with Jisoo and Park Soo Ryun’s portrayals in Snowdrop, they two acted very nicely. No doubt about that. The Blackpink singer was the lead one- Eun Yeong-ro, a freshman at the Hosu Women’s University, more precisely in the English department. Whereas, Park Soo Ryun was a student in the same.
Talking about Jisoo sparking controversy, people showed hatred towards her because she didn’t care much about Park Soo Ryun’s death. Even if the Kpop star did, she didn’t showcase her acts. Since both of them were like co-stars, who worked together on a project, fans expected her to mourn the loss. But, Jisoo did exactly the opposite. What?
People addressed Jisoo as a bug superstar but bad by heart. More precisely, at the time of Park Soo Ryun’s death, this Blackpink singer was busy partying hard in Australia. Not only that, she didn’t even pay her tribute by sharing any heartfelt message on social media. It naturally turned out to be a major shock to the people, even some Blinks (Blackpink’s fandom).
Many took the discussion on social media and slammed Jisoo. She simply acted as if Park Soo Ryun was a stranger to her. But, in reality, she worked with her in the Kdrama, shared the same screen, and were also believed to be friends.
Fans, disheartened by Jisoo’s behavior, shared that nobody in the Kpop industry is friends. They further added that even if some idols showcase their love for other stars, it’s fake. On the other hand, some defended this saying that not everyone in the Kpop industry is as heartless as Jisoo.
This was indeed a saddening thing to see, Jisoo getting hatred from her fans. Also, it feels bad to accept that we have lost Park Soo Ryun. Well, life never stops for anyone. Let’s just look forward in life, with positivity.
