In recent days, Kim Jung Hoon - Jisoo's brother (Blackpink) - has become the focus of controversy when he was arrested on charges of harassing a female streamer, and also faced accusations of violence from a person claiming to be his wife.
Previously, this person was also suspected of secret filming, but the incident quickly subsided. The noise seriously affected Jisoo's reputation and faced a wave of public boycott.
On the female singer's side, although there was information that she and her brother founded BLISSOO company, Jisoo denied it, affirming that she was not related to her brother and lived independently from an early age.
However, this statement quickly faced skepticism from a part of netizens.
The reason stems from the fact that in the credit section (recognizing participants) of the Netflix movie "Boyfriend on Demand", or the projects "Monthly Boyfriend", "Newtopia", Kim Jung Hoon's name is recorded as "management representative".
This makes many people question the real level of connection between Jisoo's brother and her activities, and at the same time request the company to clarify.
On the contrary, many opinions believe that the matter is being pushed too far. Some netizens defended Jisoo, arguing that the female singer was not directly involved in the accusations and clearly expressed a separate viewpoint, not supporting legally or financially.
They also pointed out that the filming time took place before the scandal was exposed, so the appearance of the name in the credits is not enough basis to blame Jisoo.
Meanwhile, Kim Jung Hoon is still the focus of criticism after being accused of improper behavior, although the request for temporary detention has been rejected by the prosecutor.
At the same time, a person claiming to be his wife also spoke out to accuse domestic violence, making the case increasingly complicated and attracting great attention from public opinion.
In the latest developments, Jisoo suddenly canceled her photoshoot with the press at Incheon International Airport scheduled for April 22, amidst a series of scandals.
