After her debut in Newtopia, the BLACKPINK star is set to play Seo Mirae, a workaholic webtoon producer who stumbles into a virtual reality dating experience.
Seo Inguk, on the other hand, plays her cold yet deep rival, Park Kyeongnam.
The internet, of course, has opinions. K-netizens are scratching their heads over the casting, questioning why Jisoo, still a relatively new actress, is leading alongside a seasoned actor like Seo Inguk.
Some are convinced it’s all about marketing, with Netflix banking on Jisoo’s name to push the show.
“Yeah, it’s obvious they’re making this a female-led story because of Jisoo,” one netizen commented.
Another added, “They’re selling this drama on her name, especially since it’s on Netflix.”
But not everyone is convinced. Some are skeptical about Jisoo’s acting chops, with comments like, “How many projects has she done?
Why is she still taking these roles?” and “Even with Seo Inguk’s top-tier acting, this drama might flop.”
Meanwhile, fans are hyped for the fresh pairing, with many eager to see Jisoo take on a more mature role.
The plot, blending romance with virtual reality, has also piqued curiosity.
But with dating rumours already swirling between Jisoo and Seo Inguk, could this drama turn into reality? Guess we’ll have to wait and see!
