While it remains unconfirmed whether K-pop group BLACKPINK has renewed their contract with YG Entertainment, news about the individual members exploring various opportunities is gaining attention. The four members, Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa, have been branching out into different fields. Among them, Jisoo is reportedly considering a return to acting.

Multiple reports are circulating, suggesting that Jisoo has secured a role in the highly-anticipated movie "Omniscient Reader." This film is an adaptation of a popular Korean webtoon with the same title and is considered one of the most influential webtoons to date.

If these reports are accurate, Jisoo would be joining the star cast that includes Lee Min Ho, Nana, Ahn Hyo Seop, Chae Soo Bin, and Jung Sung Il. This movie would also mark Jisoo's debut in theatrical acting.

The news of Jisoo's casting has gone viral, and it has elicited mixed reactions from netizens. Some Blinks are excited about her new role, but there are others who have reservations, particularly due to mixed reviews of her acting in her debut series, "Snowdrop," released in 2021.

About Jisoo's private life:

In a recent update, it was also confirmed that BLACKPINK member Jisoo and her boyfriend, Ahn Bo-hyun, have decided to end their relationship. YG Entertainment, Jisoo's agency, officially confirmed their breakup.

The separation is believed to be a result of the natural drift that occurred between them due to their demanding schedules. Reports suggest that their busy lives led to a mutual decision to go their separate ways.

Jisoo and Ahn Bo-hyun's romantic involvement became publicly known in August when both stars openly acknowledged their relationship.
