We are looking back at January 2021 when BLACKPINK’s Jisoo got candid in an interview with W Korea! The pop icon spoke about her birthday, the most memorable moment from the past year, and battling anxiety. When asked about how she spent her birthday, Jisoo said, “I happened to not have any work on my birthday. I slept soundly until late [laughs]. After I got up, I saw the many birthday wishes left by our fan club BLINK and thought ‘Oh, it’s my birthday!’ Thanks to them, it was a day full of gratitude and happiness.”
Jisoo was asked to share what the most memorable moment was about promoting BLACKPINK’s “The Album,” which came out in October 2020. “As you know, it was our first full album since our debut,” said Jisoo. “That may be why the most memorable moment for me is still the moment right when our album release began. I think I had two emotions at the same time. I hoped that the BLINKs who had waited a long time would like the album as much as we do, and I also felt sad that we can’t meet BLINKs in person.”
The interviewer commented on how Jisoo appears to be positive and easy-going in her live broadcasts. Jisoo was asked if she has any advice for people who are dealing with worries, fears, or hesitations. “When worries and fears come up, I think it’s a good habit to not fall too deep into that emotion and instead quickly switch to another thought,” shared Jisoo. “There will always be situations that can’t be solved easily, no matter how hard you try, so I hope you won’t hesitate too much. Also, we shouldn’t reproach ourselves too much over things we can’t easily change at will, and we shouldn’t regret things that have already happened either. It’s better to quickly brush it off and think about the next step and how it can be turned into a good situation, and the result will be better too.” On the topic of her greatest strength, Jisoo said, “I don’t dwell on the past or the future. I do my best while focusing on this moment now, on the present. It seems to make me strong.”
