I did not think about whether it was hot or cold water."
The singer then commented, "It was so cold." "I was the last person to film a scene. After the break, I had to wait for a long time. I had to shoot other parts at night, and then I went into the water. I was so cold, so it was like that," she added. The vocalist also mentioned that fans might notice that she was frozen in the scene. After hearing this, the other BLACKPINK members complimented Jisoo, saying she looks beautiful in her solo parts.
