Famously secretive star Jisoo – known as a member of Blackpink – met with journalists after receiving the Madame Figaro Rising Star Award at Canneseries. 

“It was my first time at Cannes alone. Still, I was able to feel the significance of the Pink Carpet. The name itself has a special meaning for me,” she smiled.

Although the meeting was brief, there was a buzz of excitement in the room, with local journalists waiting for her entrance with phones already up in the air and photos to sign.
