BLACKPINK member Jisoo is drawing attention online after sharing a batch of behind-the-scenes photos from her new Netflix series “Boyfriend on Demand” — a move that comes as the idol-actress once again faces mixed reactions over her acting.
On March 12, Jisoo posted several photos on her personal social media account along with the caption, "I'm freshman Seo Mi-rae." The images quickly spread across fan communities and social platforms, where fans praised the cheerful set atmosphere and the singer’s college-student transformation.

The photos show scenes from the filming of Netflix’s original series “Boyfriend on Demand,” which stars Jisoo in the lead role. In several shots, she appears dressed as a freshman university student wearing a varsity-style department jacket, portraying a youthful campus look.
Other images capture her smiling alongside fellow cast members on set. One scene features Jisoo wearing a kendo uniform, while actor Seo Kang-joon, who plays a senior member of the university’s kendo club and a virtual-reality date partner in the story, stands beside her. The candid photos reveal a warm and friendly atmosphere among the cast.
The series, released March 6, follows Mi-rae, a webtoon producer exhausted by the realities of work who escapes into a virtual reality dating program.
However, Jisoo’s performance has once again sparked debate among viewers. The BLACKPINK member has faced recurring scrutiny over her acting since her earlier drama projects, and “Boyfriend on Demand” have received mixed reactions from audiences online.
Despite the divided reviews, Jisoo appears to be focusing on promoting the project, sharing behind-the-scenes content and interacting with fans through social media.
Meanwhile, Jisoo was recently selected as the recipient of the Madame Figaro Rising Star Award at the 9th Canneseries Festival and has been invited to attend the event.
