New Teaser for jTBC Period Drama Snowdrop Elicits Criticism of Female Lead Jisoo’s Dialogue Reading and Schizo Narrative Tonal Shift

View Comments

• I noticed the bad enunciation since the first teaser.

  Of all the BP's girls, I only took a liking (though little) on Jisoo. Even then, I have bern skeptical over her casting as FL right from the get go.

  In here, she was trying to act and sound cute and naive, instead she appears stupid and seems like having few loose screws (based on the teasers so far), widening her eyes at every chances. And she does not appear to be that pretty as how shes being glorified as the visual of BP.

  Well, it wpuld be interesting to see how this drama fare given how blinks been busy defending her casting and the hype around BP which I find so over the top.

  • yeah, i've seen similar comments about her visual. this is what happens when fans overate their biases. she definitely benefits from the blackpink styling and makeup. although suzy's acting is polarizing and leaves much to be desired lol, she is able to pull off the more natural look onscreen and live up to the name as "visual" of her group.

  • I think her visuals tend to be glorified as the best cause she is probably natural or maybe had the least work done.

  • Such a crap article with crap hateful comments.jisoo is beautiful as main visual of group and her voice is awesome .About acting I saw the teaser it was good nothing like hateful comments said.crap article full of crap comments even saying they r jisoo fan .take a rest u liers disgusting peoples

    • Finally someone who agrees with me

  • Erm I didn't always see she widen her eyes just one scene

  • Pls, netizens are too harsh she barely said anything and y'all are creating a issue out of it, isn't it obvious she's doing what she's being told too y'all are too much!

• I don't think she did anything that looks that horrid. I mean she barely says any lines and yes, I do find her voice a bit off but hey, it may just be weirdly done teaser. I'd rather watch it first, see a few episodes before commenting on her acting. Its not enough to critic her yet. I can tell that Jung Hae In is being primed to do some of the acting heavy lifting already which makes sense. I don't think the team would give Jisoo anything she can't carry. At least I hope not.

• please netizen, don't be so brutal. let this aired. they are just fickle for no reason and ridiculous. especially what happen to joseon exorcist.

• her tone and diction are worse than hyeri to be honest. her speaking voice is already nasally and congested, so if she is serious about her acting career, yg should send her to a speech therapist. however, i won't comment on her acting since it's just a teaser.

  • Ain't u too toxic?Send her too speech therapist
    She's being loved by millions for acting and it has a reason

    • For true blinks jisoo is the ultimate queen .. I truly support u

• Jesus Christ.. This blogger is too judgemental and she attract equally judgemental and bitter people like her. I have never seen this type of blog before.. It is like a bunch of haters and bitter people team up to open a blog where they will let out their vile vomits on celebrities.

  I am starting to get confused if we all watched different kind of teaser bcos what I watch was awesome.

  • I know right. I'm always astounded by the amount of hate on this blog. It's like kneitizens but international version.

    • If this is “astounding” I’m assuming you haven’t heard of Twitter in your life? Lol, check it out sometime. You’ll not find anything here nearly as “astounding”.

      ?

    • To show this is just pure hate.. The clowns are even attacking her visual which is laughable bcos say anything about jisoo.. She is one of the greatest visuals to come out of Korea full stop.. She is actually well known for it outside the blackpink fandom .. And I can bet you that the clowns attacking her look like dog poo.. That I am sure off

    • @butterfly sorry but that's a dumb parallel. What's the relationship between what I said and twitter. So because twitter is toxic, every other source of media should be too. Give me a break.
      Funnily,I'm pretty sure I'm more versed with twitter than you aare ?

    • @Dandelion

      The fact that you can’t see the parallel? Yup. Shows how smart you are ?

      And yep. I’m way more versed at Twitter than you are. That’s my initial assumption so you just proved me right. Check it out and oriented yourself tho. Might make you look less “dumb” around these grounds. Or not. No cure for stupidity lol

  • Weren't you the one who said GHJ is ugly and that the eternal chaebol deserves a gorgeous female lead? And you talking about people here being bitter? lmao

  • you’re one to talk about people letting out their “ vile vomits “ on celebrities ?

  • funny you say that because you're always here hating on everyone, don't dash it if you can't take it

  • I agree with you lods.

  • right... and the comments just horrid. i bet the same bunch petitioned SD to get cancelled.

  • Me too!!!I was literally SHOCKED when I see so many comments saying her voice and acting. Her acting I personally can't feel any bad in these teasers. The voice I like it compare to those cute voice

• Contrary to popular belief, I have always found BP's visuals to be quite average. It's their styling and make up which makes their over all appearance outstanding.
  I am not that active in kpop but if I have to mention someone from the current grps who never fails to surprise me with her visuals ,that person is Irene. Can't believe she's 30 year old.
  In some pics, she can easily be passed off as song hye kyo's sister.

• Poor Jung Hae-In and other great actors like Kim Hye-Yoon, Jang Seung-Jo, Yoo In-Na and Yoon Se-Ah...

  The focus of this drama is only about Ji-Soo and for now it doesn't look promising...

  • YIN is much better choice for lead. i bet she will overshine JS like she did with KGE in Goblin. Second lead syndrome is real

    • This is her first time acting though. Give her a chance maybe. Then if she's not so great, we can expect some improvements. But people are acting like Jisoo should be perfect right off the bat. One strike and she'll be trolled forever.

      K-drama followers behave such harshly sometimes.

  • Acting like they were held at gunpoint to act alongside an untested idol with a cult-like following lmao she’s the most popular by far in the cast of course they’re going to take advantage of that? Just like Zendaya with less than 5 minutes screen time in Dune was all over the promo circuit of the movie… And the FL character’s a college freshman, YIN would not fit at all lol should’ve just said KHY but alas, she’s not even 3rd billed in this

    • Lol, Zendaya, you are comparing Jisoo to the emmy winner, fashion trend setter, MJ of spider man Zendaya who worked her but off to get her success in Hollywood? Really!

    • Was talking about the way she was utilized for the promotion of the movie with that screen time, can you read? I didn’t compare Jisoo and Zendaya as actresses and all that you said lmfao

    • Zendaya will be a key character in the next movie and it was well known prior to the promotional events to at least North Americans...this was a Denise Villenueve film. Completely different things at play here. Even minus Jisoo, this show has heavy hitters. I can only hope Jisoo was cast on merit, not clout. Because Koreans will tear her apart even if her fanbase abroad laps it up.

    • I was merely commenting on how they are using their popularity reach to promote their respective projects, that’s literally it… not everyone knows who’s the people behind every movie or series lol I don’t care how Jisoo will be received when the drama airs I am checking it out for the writer and PD and frankly, the non-romance part of it lmao

• Honestly the drama looks like a good love story set in a different era. But my god, does she stand out as cringeworthy from the get go. It’s not about her visuals, which is meh frankly, but the diction and simply the wide-eyed stare is kinda… creepy? There wasn’t a feeling of first love to me. Then it kinda ends that way, so maaaybe that was purposely done?

  This drama is so odd with the promos. I can’t tell what the tone is.

  • The promos have been totally weird and have put the entire drama into a sort of blackbox. There should be footage ready for a substantial teaser, but they're going with these dumb, vague teasers about love. When you mentioned if it was purposely done, I wonder if the teasers are some misdirect. Like maybe it will turn out that the FL is actually a cold-hearted, serial killer arsonist and she's out to seduce the ML so she can kill him?

  • Where is the wide eyes. Only appears in one scene though. She is shocked to see the man she met. That's it

• To everyone sending hate to the drama and the actors, just stop! The drama haven't even aired yet and your judging it. Haven't you heard the saying dont judge a book by its cover.
  And for those claiming to be blinks and talking bad about jisoo. Do you even deserve to be a blink,we are all here to support her, even if the drama is bad.That's what a real blink would do, even if she is not your bias.(i dont think anything is wrong with the teaser and i know its going to be a great drama series.) who cares if her voice sounds weird or she's acting innocent. Its a drama and what do people do in drama, they ACT!!. SO why dont you just watch the teaser and if you have nothing good to say keep it to yourself and stop bringing down the movie ratings before its even aired.

  • Can u stop praising ur idol? Are u blind?? Didn't u see her weird acting?? Before getting the lead role easily, she should begin with small roles to practise her acting. Plus, she isn't the same level as other korean actresses in terms of visuals. Why are all of her fans exaggarating her typical face? Kinda boring

    • The sad thing is that there's so many better actors/actresses in the industry who are just waiting for their big break but I don't understand as to why the production team always cast new idols as leads. Is it for the hype? Knowing that all the side characters in this drama had already proved theirselves in the acting industry. I really hope Jisoo would deliver. *fingers crossed*

    • Weird acting bish it's just a 1 min teaser where she isn't even showed properly

  • Just because you think she "acts weird" doesn't mean we all do. This is bullying at its finest and you're trying to cancel her because of a teaser. And why are you bringing up her visuals and comparing her to other idols. Lmao she is in a drama not in a visual competition. And honestly Jisoo is much more beautiful than majority of the actresses today tf are you talking about. Your comment just justified how retarded you are stfu.

    • I don't understand why her fans are so toxic that even they cannot see her weird acting! U can defend ur fav but if it should make sense. She robbed the lead role because of her fame. If this casting had been honest, she would nevee been chosen. She doesn't have acting chops at all. She could begin with small roles. I don't know her expression is always so stiff and weird. Eveb in their MV she cannot express emotions. BTW, I am not anti or something. I just state the facts

• I thought koala was exaggerating about the 'stuffy nose' voice until I actually clicked and realised no, you were not. I hope the drama is much better than this frankly cringeworthy teaser at any rate.

  And I see the kpop fans are here and throwing tantrums already, as expected.
