They should have different life style, she was bit scaried at beginning but her voice was her strength. She got selected in the audition. She was very excited about it. In 2011 she was taken into YG entertainments. At beginning she had difficult time in dance pratice. But she was determined to learn dance like her , she met 3 other girls with big dreams, Jennie from South Korea, Lisa from Thailand and Roseanne park from Australia. It was not easy for these girls to get to know each other because of language and cultural barriers , but they helped each other in eventually. Trainees there usually have one to five classes a day with each other being about 3 hours. When taking dance lessons,a trainee may train upto 5 hours or more a day practicing dancing,it was very difficult for Ji Soo to follow all these. The fact is trainees don't get paid, company paid for her food, housing, styling and even for school also but they had to return these money once they debuted. They were allowed to use phones twice a week ,it seems not much but Ji Soo used all the time for calling her parents because she have to work and continuously it was lot of pressure for her. Ji Soo had so much stress on her. It was not easy for her. After 4 years of training she had her first debute. Things were difficult for all of them. It was too late to regret their decision. Later Ji Soo got a offer to work in a k-drama. She was pretty excited it was a small supporting character, but Ji Soo gave her best to the drama, there she had new friends with popular artists. She and her friends had to pratice for their performance for like 14 hours per day and they were monitored while practicing in studio by their CEO. They had hard time but they never gave up. There were many popular k-pop girls group and solo performers but slowly their team not popular even though they had less popularity in Korean. They gained international k-pop fans attention. They wanted more popularity so CEO decided to send Lisa to military training and Ji Soo was given the opportunity to host a show, she also liked acting and things related to k-pop and that show was hosted by Ji Soo and other 2 male idols. She was busy with shows and performances. People started liking her because she was beautiful and few idols became fanboys for her unique beauty this lead to shipping her with some of k-pop idols. It was not easy for ignoring rumors but she comfortably worked in the shows and on the other side their group was gaining popularity.
People started staning individual bias from the group. It was quite common in k-pop to select their bais from the group, but in their group it was different , they started to criticize other members of the group. People started critizing other members of their group, just to show their support for their bias. Their group had individual fan base than as a group .It was not problem until they critizing Ji Soo. It was very difficult time for Ji Soo because fan started commenting that she danced stiff and doesn't know English properly. It was very disppointimg because Ji Soo left her family, came has trainee and worked there for 4 years. She worked so hard to give her best performance and show her love towards her fans. They bitched about her in social media. They spread bad rumors haunting Ji Soo, she stopped reading tweets or message to avoid negative comments, but she was strong girl. They had so many fan signs and other events as they became one of the most popular group and people some many times ignored Ji Soo in public it was very humiliting and she felt very bad but has she was idol she just hide her pain with big smile,but when she reached dormitory, she couldn't control herself from crying. It was hard and painful, because she did so much to make people happy but when she got to know she couldn't get back the same love, it was painful reality for her. But she was strong, she tried her best to learn dance and english, so that she could be treated in same way like other members of the group. But it was not easy for other members also Rosie was not been in any solo events and Lisa was not given proper custom like rest of them, Jennie was criticised as YG's pet and that she was more favoured by YG than others. It was was simple and it was hard to deal with anti fans in the name of being fan(blinks) ,the more fans gained, it was difficult for company to protecting these girls, they were threatened, they felt insecure to go in public places or places like airport. Their freedom was taken away from them. They became like angels without wings. They had to follow the strict rules of company like they were allowed to go to public places,they were not allowed to drive, go to clubs or walk around in public places, they were not allowed to do other projects without company's permission, so the acting offers for Ji Soo gradually decreased. They were made to follow strict diet, so most of them looked skinny and they were less weighing than average weight of their age girls. They could not date anyone, they were not allowed to hang out with boys. Even though Ji Soo was avoiding rumors, she was shipped with many k-pop idols. She had no other way but to ignore those rumors, she avoided gossips and comfortably intacted friendly with k-pop idols during work.

It was a big night, there were few moments which was mistunderstood by fans, they edited chips and new rumor came in social media, it was trending topic of that time , it was big deal because BTS and blackpink have highest fandom, fans went crazy over this,this rumor went viral in short period of time. It was pretty disturbing because many V crazy fans became antifans of Ji Soo. She didn't mind all these things, she was more focusing on her skills and improving them. Ji Soo always dreamer of becoming singer, but now people only see her, like her visual,it is very rare for people to recognise her singing talent, as lead vocalist in blackpink, jisoo was given the least number of lines in song, it was unfortunate that she never got the lines "blackpink in your area" a icon line which is used in all of their albums is not given to Ji Soo .She alway wanted to prove herself that she is not just a visual but also a good performer ,so she always kept her mic on avoiding lip sync, it was very difficult for Ji Soo her acting career was blocked by her company and she was the last one to get solo MV in her team and people continued to criticize saying she is not that popular among her group, still she continued to model as promoting brandsand now she is known as "Miss Korea" and "Miss Dior".
