Most Overrated Korean Actor/Actress

@Emperor

"Then I don't know what happened after that , he got disease of song Hye kyo of 'frozen face'  in this act , actor tends to reduce their expression and become highly dependent on the camera movement , background score , cinematography and robotic delivery of lines ...actors tend too care too much about aesthetics of face that they become highly concious how they look , how their fans will percieve it later  . I think they got trapped in their star persona   "

this x 100000000. So well said. Yes, they eventually develop the "frozen face "syndrome as you say (look no further from Han So Hee who is giga FrozenFace in My Name) . I agree it has a lot to do with visuals (don't want to wrinkle their faces much), though some just mistake character strength for lack of emotion (this  is a massive problem with actresses who view "strong female" as essentially an expressionless robot)  and some over certain age injected Botox. :)

I’m giving Han So Hee the benefit of the doubt since she is still a rookie actress and doesn’t have formal acting training but if she didn’t improve and didn’t take acting lessons, then she’s one of them. I hope she won’t rely on her fame alone.

OMGGGG I thought I was the only who thought that Lee Jung Suk looks like Michael Jackson xD.....When I first saw him in a drama,I was like wtf is that the korean MJ lol....

sorry I ended up bumping up an old comment from 2017 but I thought the same at first while watching Secret Garden long time ago, it was because of his really pale skin and nose looked fake (no offense) but I did enjoy some of his dramas and he was pretty good at playing the villain in V.I.P. so I didn't mind his looks that much later. 

Lee Minho-hum

I see that a lot of people don't like Park Shin Hye. I was 1 of them too. But I am starting to think that, at least in my case, it was bc of roles and dramas that she played. Those cute, naive girls... 

I don't think that she is bad in acting. Especially after watching Tree of heaven.... She was good, but maybe overshadowed by ML. The ML actor, Lee Wan, was AMAZING! I think that the way he acted is among my favourite of all times.

Kim Young Dae & Cha Eun Woo ? Especially eun woo, i feel like people still watch his acting bcs of his face.

hmm I'm guilty of that. They're not good actors imo pretty basic but I do find them "pretty boys" so at least I get to see some eye candy lmao

At this point is LMH even overrated? I see more people hating on him than actually liking him. I still like seeing him as a person though out of nostalgia for BOF and City Hunter. LOTBS was his last good drama as he had more personality there compared to his robotic role in TKEM, the romance was so cringe it felt like a comedy I actually enjoyed those parts for the laughs xD
