Happy birthday to the one and only BLACKPINK’s Kim Ji-soo! Turning 30 on January 3, this BLACKPINK queen is not only an international pop icon but also a seriously talented actress and she proved that she is not just the ‘unnie’ of the group. And on her special day, we’re throwing it back to one of her most iconic moments – her acting debut in Snowdrop. Let’s dive into why this drama wasn’t just a regular K-drama but a legit game-changer for Jisoo’s career. Released in 2022, Snowdrop had Jisoo starring alongside Jung Hae-In in a political romance that had us all on the edge of our seats. Set in the 80s during a time of political unrest, the show had all the drama, suspense, and emotional highs we could ever ask for. But what made Snowdrop special was Jisoo’s mind-blowing acting debut. Here’s why this role was more than just a stepping stone for her. ‘Newtopia’: BLACKPINK’s Jisoo Looks Stunning in NEW Stills From Her Upcoming Series Co-Starring Park Jung Min (View Pics).
