Gonna write a book:
I am going to disagree with all input of Song Joon Ki. While it may be true that he is over hyped, I do not think he is overrated. His overt popularity is likely due to his marriage to Song Hye Ko. It is already established that SHK was a very popular and well liked actress in South Korea. I think she is an OK actress, but she isn't a favourite. SJK is talented in my opinion and regardless of his youthful looks(part of the charm), he is able to play his characters quite well. He stole my heart in Warewolf Boy. From that moment on, I knew he would go far. Now. If he had not married SHK, he would have been an an "underrated" actor. But he would surly have gained the popularity for his skill had he not married her. Lee JunGi , for example, was underrated grew in popularity after Scarlett Heart. So, it all boiled down to Song Joon Ki's marriage to Song Hye Ko.
While I AM a Lee Min Ho fan, I DO think he is over hyped. I truly think that Person Taste and maybe S*itty Hunter was some of his best work as it showed versatility. As with Faith, perhaps. But Faith, to me in general, was not great. What I don't like is the fact that he is continually playing the same roles constantly. Or maybe the acting in his character portrayal, isn't captivating. He was fun in Legend, however. I keep sticking around and supporting him with hopes that he will eventually do something different and actually improve this acting abilities. Because, ya know what... Ahhahh. It's getting boring baby boy.
Hwang Jung Eum. Goodness. I love her. Generally speaking. I can see that this women is skilled but she is just now showing it to us. When I watch her dramas, I can not help but think"Unni, calm the F down girl! "?" why are you always shouting? " I also wonder why she is constantly over the top acting like that. Was it the request of the director? The script? Goodness, hun, I am not seeing the talent that I feel she has.
Lee Jun Suk. EHHHHHHHHH. Lol. What can I say? Potential? Absolutely. Execution? Not really. Makes me wonder if he is relying too much upon his looks.
JUNG Geun Suk (misspelled?) There is something about him that doesn't sit well with me. Whenever I see him, I just get angry. ?. As an actor, he is just OK for me. I could barely finish anything he is in. Definitely not on my top 5, 10, 15, or even 20. Whatever.
Park Shin Hye. Lol. I can see potential. And she did prove it in Doctors and in her movies. But I think she excels most in movies than dramas.
Lot of people said Gong Yoo, but I beg to differ. I find him very talented, certainly not worth the over hype but still worthy of the praise.
I don't have a general dislike for many of the actors and actresses, there are some that I can not understand why they are so hyped or extremely popular. I do tend to stay away from the Idol dramas. I mean... Just a no for me. There are some that I feel could be sooooooo much better to actually live up to their reputation. And there are some I feel, do not live up to the hype.
