Did Jennie make a mistake acting in The Idol instead of a Kdrama?

No one had a problem with Euphoria but this show is a problem. Also jennie apparently barely gets any lines anyway.

I dont think so. Hbo is Hbo regardless of how shitty the show might be. It still is bigger exposure and better experience than a kdrama. Either option would be fine but if it The Idol flops it will be considered the show's fault. If the kdrama she starred flopped ppl would consider it her fault.

I just watched the trailer, and honestly, it just looked like a man sat down in the writing room and shat out one long sex fantasy of what he imagines of a female pop singer. The whole thing was honestly uncomfortable to watch. If there was supposed to be a message or a story anywhere in that trailer it failed to stick out.

But for Jennie? Would this be a mistake? Well, not really. If this show does get the kind of audience and hype it's aiming for like Euphoria, then Jennie will still benefit from the exposure even if the show is shit. As as for Korea? Well, I doubt she really cares all that much about their opinions. She's already obtained all that she can domestically, her new goals a re to break out into the west. And, so long as she doesn't do any nude scenes, the only thing Koreas can say is that she's acting in a trashy drama.

thankfully jennie has little screentime so it's gonna be fine

I think Jisoo appearing in that drama was a waste of time.

Good that Jennie showed up in a HBO show.

The Weeknd probably wanted to ally with BlackPink to attack BTS but that plan became moot because BTS imploded first

so long as she doesn't do any nude scenes...

And if she does?

No but she might have thought that this will blow up just like euphoria. And since she has less screentime, it'll be take less investment. But I do think she'll be dragged alot cus there's not even one actor in the show and plot is crap just like euphoria.

this has sounded like a shitshow since the beginning. the Weeknd is apparently a massive diva and fired the old writer or something.

Not really...

It will either have positive impact on Jennie if the show become a hit or it will do nothing if it is a flop.

It is basically pop star version of Euphoria.

note: if army is talking about it then at least the show already have some kind of hype that they have a need to attack it.

And if she does?

I rebuke this possibility

I don't think she would. Not even Zendaya did nudity in Euphoria. YG would never allow that. But if by some stroke of madness this does happen well... all I can say is RIP

She will probably be the standout of the Cast. I’ve seen Lilly Rose Depp and her acting isn’t anything interesting. Sort of one note.

Quote from crystalblues

Originally her character and script was much different before she signed the contract, it is almost like the Weeknd did a bait and switch on all the women who signed on originally for an empowering show about women in the industry. Changing it after everyone signed on to a really sick fantasy of his.

Wasn’t her character written as bisexual?

I think this could be an opportunity for Jennie to show her skills and maybe work with more talented/renowned Directors, Producers if that is something she wants to pursue.

i don't even care about the idol, ever since i saw the description of the show it looks gross.

if Jennie can't act or act amateur like Jisoo
I rather Jennie being extra or special appearance in the Idol

unless Jennie get supporting cast route first or even 2nd lead
rather than goes straight as a leading role

I edit the Jisoo to Jennie 🤦‍♂️
sorry for the typo

abel and lily rose depp have not impressed me with these teasers. jennie not being featured a lot on this trailer even though she appeared a lot on the teaser is not a good sign about how many lines she got. if they had something substantial out of her they would've included her more because 1. blinks 2. right after coachella?
