BLACKPINK member Jisoo is all set to venture into the world of zombies in her upcoming K-drama Newtopia (previously titled Influenza). The announcement, confirmed by Coupang Play, has fans buzzing with excitement, especially with the involvement of Oscar-winning Parasite writer Han Jin-won. Jisoo will share the screen with Park Jung Min, who starred in Hellbound and Smugglers. Newtopia tells the story of Jae Yoon (Jung Min), a soldier, and his girlfriend, Young Joo (Jisoo), as they navigate a zombie-infested Seoul in an attempt to reunite. In newly released stills, Jae Yoon is seen gasping for breath, looking shocked as he encounters the outbreak during his military service. His subordinate, In Ho, portrayed by Im Sung Jae, appears even more horrified. Another image shows Young Joo in a seemingly calm alleyway.
