BLACKPINK’s Jisoo Set to Star in Highly Anticipated K-Drama “Influenza”
Jisoo, a well-known member of BLACKPINK, is in talks to play the lead in the next K-drama “Influenza,” which would mark her comeback to television. Due to its interesting plot and esteemed creative team, the series, which is scheduled to be broadcast on the new South Korean site Coupang Play, has generated a lot of hype.
The novel “Influenza,” written by acclaimed author Han Jin-won, who received praise for his contributions to the Oscar-winning film “Parasite,” promises a dramatic and engrossing story. The protagonists of the plot are a soldier named Jae-yoon along his girlfriend Young-joo, who are respectively portrayed by possible protagonists Park Jung-min and Jisoo. The pair decides to break up shortly before a zombie epidemic happens, which causes the narrative to take an unexpected turn.
A 26-year-old man playing Jae-yoon joins military service after trying to defy South Korea’s compulsory enlistment. He makes the difficult decision to end his relationship with Young-joo while grappling with his future possibilities and the state of their relationship. The globe is simultaneously plunged into turmoil as a zombie pandemic creeps quickly.
Young-joo, on the contrary, has had a sheltered life and is currently coping with heartache and navigating the complexity of the outside world. When she comes across a zombie, her quest to get in touch with her ex-boyfriend takes a terrible turn. She embarks on a transforming journey as she faces her anxieties and vulnerabilities after being forced into a struggle to be alive.
The core of the story is the juxtaposition between the two protagonists, who are each coping with their own problems in the middle of a major calamity. Despite his initial insecurities and limitations, Jae-yoon proves to be a capable leader as he organizes a group to survive the end of the world. Young-joo transforms into a strong and courageous person as she battles for her survival after being pushed into a circumstance that is very different from her protected childhood.
With renowned author Han Jin-won in charge, “Influenza” is anticipated to present an exciting story that skillfully combines character growth with challenging survival aspects. Fans eagerly look forward to Jisoo from BLACKPINK and actor Park Jung-min’s potential partnership in this singular and thrilling series, so their inclusion adds an extra element of excitement.
“Influenza” sticks out as a fascinating addition to the K-drama environment as it continues to change, ready to enthrall viewers with its dynamic narrative and the examination of human power and perseverance in the face of unthinkable circumstances. The anticipation for the series just keeps growing as Jisoo from BLACKPINK is rumored to play a lead part.
