BLACKPINK’s Jisoo faces backlash for missing “Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint” production briefing
BLACKPINK’s Jisoo is catching heat as she won’t attend the production briefing session for her upcoming film Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint. The absence has fans divided, sparking a controversy just weeks before BLACKPINK’s comeback and world tour.
Jisoo is the only cast member missing from the briefing, which is an important promo event and a rare chance to see the full cast together.
Fans quickly blamed YG Entertainment, accusing the company of not allowing Jisoo to attend because of the group’s busy schedule.

“yg is so nasty for this bcs jisoo attended every movie premiere of her friends but couldnt attend her own???”Luz (@ClaraAl99641407):
“I absolutely hate this YG always doesn’t some Be so jisoo can’t attend her own stuff”
Others called out the hectic scheduling, feeling it’s unfair for Jisoo to skip important promo events.

“‘booked and busy’ but never serious enough to attend actual events/promo related to her projects. why spend hours filming if you won’t have time for it later?”
Some fans defended Jisoo, saying the decision might come from her own choice to focus on BLACKPINK’s comeback and tour.

“idk why some people in the quotes are blaming yge or the director like have you guys ever think about Jisoo probably not attending because she either said no or she’s busy right now with her group activities ????”Alchemist (@Alchemist_204):
“Just frustrated…I think it’ jisoo who doesn’t want to attend cz if she wanted to attend she could. She has that freedom now. Yg is not the culprit here, an event of 1 hour would never harm that comeback or tour.”Ry 행복지수 103% (@rysooyaaa):
“Some people need to wake up! This has no connection to YG or Blackpink’s comeback – it’s her solo project under her own company It might be because she doesn’t want to or or there were issues with the film crew. Respect her choice.”
The movie is set to release next month, with anticipation still high despite the backlash surrounding the promo absences. BLACKPINK’s comeback and tour remain the center of massive attention.
