AfreecaTV BJ Tomato Has Meltdown After Being Compared to BLACKPINK Jisoo

On August 13, BLACKPINK appeared on a live stream to promote PUBG. The stream was broadcasted to AfreecaTV for South Korean viewers, and those tuning in could watch the girls playing the video game with a professional e-sports team. Following the live stream, many people praised Jisoo's visuals.

The "Snowdrop" idol-actress visuals got praised for being goddess-like despite the natural light. Many noted that official broadcasts such as these are often avoided by female BJs (broadcast jockeys) since there is no program or light that could filter their face, revealing their true beauty.

However, Jisoo showed no worries about such things, boasting flawless and overwhelming visuals in her shots. Jisoo became a hot topic due to this, but so did another AfreecaTV BJ. BJ FreshTomato became a hot topic, but the reason was the opposite of why Jisoo started trending.

Her post reads:

"I thought I would be fine if I took a break

But I am so upset about the constant mention of the workshop cams.

There is even an article about people comparing my appearance to other people.

Comparing me to top-ranked celebrities has crossed the lines.

If I did something wrong, I would rather spend time thinking about it and reflecting on myself.

But it is not that; it is purely a problem with my face.

So I do not even want to look in the mirror. What should I do?

I thought I would be okay if I laughed, but I am not okay at all.

Do not look for me... I am going to hide..."
