BLACKPINK's Jisoo appealed with visuals like a Christmas princess. Today (15th), fashion magazine 'ELLE KOREA' released the cover of Jisoo's December issue. Incorporating a Christmas atmosphere, the photoshoot took place outdoors in late autumn, where Jisoo showed a bright demeanor throughout the shoot, leading the atmosphere on set. After finishing filming for the movie 'From the Perspective of a Knowledgeable Reader' and the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia', when asked if there is a difference in her sense of responsibility as a singer and an actress, she replied, 'There is only a difference in the energy that can be seen in the moment, but both require a long time and effort, so the weight of responsibility does not change.' She added, 'However, when I receive a good script, I tend to want to meet with the director and discuss a lot. Since we have to work together for a long time, I think it's important to have the same direction.' Showing her professional side, she mentioned that after establishing her personal agency, there are many things to research and decide in the music-making process. 'It's difficult but enjoyable, and I have come to feel how many people are supporting me. Because of that, the significance of the results will also become greater. I want to share it with you soon,' she expressed passionately. When asked about her feelings regarding the upcoming release of new works in 2025, she said, 'Since we filmed together for a long time, my affection for the work can only deepen. I hope those who watch it will find it interesting because we filmed it with joy and effort. I am worried, but I am also very excited.' She did not hide her affection for the work. Additionally, she added, 'Despite this year being one with many first challenges, I felt a lot of warmth while receiving various support and encouragement. If this year has been a new turning point for me, I think next year will be a starting point.' She expressed her expectations for future activities. Jisoo's gravure and interview can be found in the December issue of 'ELLE' and on the website, and the interview film is scheduled to be released through the official YouTube channel.
