After Lisa, Jennie and Rose, Jisoo is the last member of Blackpink to return as a solo artist. Jisoo's return with the mini album "AMORTAGE" was praised for being meticulous and having a breakthrough in appearance. In the MV "Earthquake", "Blackpink's eldest sister" has stepped out of her comfort zone in terms of fashion style and music style.
However, in addition to those things, Jisoo also faced countless criticisms for her singing and dancing skills. With the performance of "Earthquake" on the Inkigayo music stage, Blackpink's Jisoo is said to have been the most disappointing as a member of a top group and has 9 years of experience. Jisoo's singing voice was criticized for being thin and flat, and her dance moves were also judged to be indecisive. In a rotation, Jisoo was somewhat wonky and unable to stand firm.
While the three Blackpink members all broke their own records with solo projects, "Earthquake" was somewhat behind "Flower" - Jisoo's hit released in 2023. The early-hour achievements of Earthquake were far behind the song Flower with 6th place Bugs, 10th place Genie and 16th place Melon Top 100.
The achievements of Earthquake in Korea also did not seem to be as expected. After 1 hour of release, Earthquake only took 73rd place on the Bugs chart and 242nd place on Genie, unable to enter the top domestic chart - Melon Top 100.
Not only in singing, Jisoo has also been continuously criticized as an actress. Appearing as the female lead in "Newtopia", Jisoo was criticized for her lack of variety and bad dialogue. Many people also think that she should stop playing the main role to improve her acting skills before becoming a real actress. Previously, Jisoo's performance in "Snow drop" also received many criticisms.
2025 will be a busy year for Jisoo as she continuously has projects in both music and acting. As expected, Jisoo will appear in the movie "Boyfriend On Demand" and the movie "All Readers".
Along with that, the female idol will return with 3 Blackpink members and conduct a world tour with the group.
She also toured in 6 Asian countries as a solo artist. With a tight schedule, the audience hopes Jisoo will spend time improving her skills to have better performances in the future.
