BLACKPINK member and actress Jisoo has shared her excitement about her upcoming activities following her solo career launch.

On November 18, Jisoo graced the cover of Elle magazine's December issue and opened up about her recent ventures in an interview.

Having recently wrapped up filming for the movie Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint and the series Newtopia, Jisoo was asked if there’s a difference in responsibility between her music career and acting.

She responded, “The energy might feel different in the moment, but both require long hours of dedication and hard work, so the weight of responsibility is the same. However, when I get a good script, I make sure to meet with the director and discuss it in detail. Since we’ll be working together for a long time, it’s important to make sure our visions align,” showcasing her professionalism.

Reflecting on the process of music production after establishing her own agency, Jisoo shared, “There’s a lot to consider and decide on my own. It’s challenging, but enjoyable. I’ve also realized how many people are helping me along the way. That’s why I believe the meaning behind the final result will be even greater. I can’t wait to share it with everyone.”

When asked about her upcoming project in 2025, Jisoo expressed her excitement: “After filming for a long time, it’s natural to become attached to the project. I really hope viewers enjoy it as much as I did while filming. Of course, I’m a bit nervous, but I’m also very excited.”

She added, “This year has been a year of many firsts for me, and I’ve received so much support and warmth. If this year was a turning point for me, then I think next year will be the starting point for even more.” Jisoo’s future plans are certainly something fans can look forward to with anticipation.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
