Actor Jisoo, who left Korea amid school violence allegations, expressed her affection for activities in the Philippines by calling it her "second home."

Recently, a video titled "Kalurks: Moments in Sialgao with Alden Richards and Nadine Lustre Revealed by Kim Ji-soo!" was released on the YouTube channel 'YoüLOL'.

The video features Jisoo appearing on the Philippine talk show 'Kalurks'.

On that day, Jisoo was asked about her period of activity in the Philippines and her identity as a local. She responded, "My heart feels like it belongs to Filipinos. I've been active here for two years already. It feels like my second home."

She also mentioned a new drama currently in preparation. Jisoo explained, "I played a Korean character. While I wanted to start a new life, the character is shrouded in mystery."

Questions about her love life followed. When asked about the possibility of dating Filipino women, Jisoo said, "I am open to it. I don't really care about nationality. For the sake of love, anyone can be anywhere."

When asked if she could actually go on a date with one of the female MCs, she replied, "Of course. Why not? Isn't she truly beautiful?" drawing attention.

Meanwhile, Jisoo became embroiled in school violence allegations in March 2021. She apologized, saying, "I sincerely apologize to those who suffered because of me. There is no room for excuses regarding the misconduct I committed in the past. They were actions that cannot be forgiven."

At the time, he was starring in KBS 2TV's drama 'The River Where the Moon Rises'. Due to the controversy, he withdrew from the production. Na In-woo was cast in his place starting from episode 7.

Subsequently, the drama production company filed a lawsuit against KeyEast, Jisoo's former agency, seeking damages in the billions of won. However, in May 2021, Jisoo left KeyEast. KeyEast stated, "Our company judged that it would be difficult for Jisoo to continue activities and respected the actor's own wish not to cause further harm to the agency, ultimately deciding on a mutual termination of the contract."

After parting ways with her agency, Jisoo enlisted in the military and was discharged in October 2023. She also stated after her discharge that she met with those who first raised the school violence allegations, cleared up misunderstandings, resolved negative feelings, and has now become a supporter of hers.

Thereafter, Jisoo left Korea and is currently active in the Philippines. She appeared in the drama 'Black Rider' and the film 'Rainbow'. Recently, she played the villain 'Dong-hyun', entangled with a cybercrime organization, in GMA Prime Time Action Drama 'Taskforce Firewall'.
