Kim Jung Hun is Jisoo’s big brother. He is 6 years older than her. The boy appears in his sister’s pics from time to time. He looks really handsome, and many of Jisoo’s followers nicknamed him as a “hottie”.

In May 2019 he wedded his loved one, and all the girls from “Blackpink” and members of their families were the guests at his wedding ceremony.
Bio
Kim Ji Soo gained international popularity as the member of the popular South Korean band “Blackpink”. The group, signed by YG Entertainment just several years ago, became popular within hours after the release of its first mini album “Square One”, which consisted of just 2 singles, both of which topped the charts.
The band consists of 4 girls, and each of them insists, that there’s no leader among them. But some fans suppose that it’s Jisoo, who is actually the Visual of the group. She is the most experienced and easy-going among the girls. She can make anyone laugh.
Kim Ji Soo grew up in a rich South-Korean family. She spent her childhood and teen years in Seoul. With the great support from her father’s side, she fell in love with music and acting and entered Seven Fine Arts School.
In 2011 she visited audition, arranged by YG Entertainment and was signed to the newly-created band “Blackpink”. They say, she got an offer from SM Entertainment managers, who work with the rival band, but she refused to live Blackpink, mostly because of close relationships with the other girls. They are really friendly and name one another “the sisters”. Very often she invited her band-mate Lisa to her family holidays, because the latter one comes from Thailand, and thus she can’t see her parents and other relatives too often.
Jisoo is the only member of the band, who can’t speak English fluently, but she knows some other foreign languages – they are Japanese and Chinese.
She is the oldest girl in the band and the most experienced one – previously to “Blackpink” she starred in a number of commercials and appeared in several music videos.
