Besides good acting skills, “chemistry” or interaction between actors is a very important thing in every drama. However, the 6 couples below are said to have the worst “chemistry”.
Park Shin Hye & Jo Seung Woo – Sisyphus: Mythology
The fact that Sisyphus: Myth becomes a disappointing JTBC drama in 2021 not only comes from the bad script, bad effects, or Park Shin Hye‘s acting skills but also from the boring interaction between her and Jo Seung Woo too.
Although Jo Seung Woo is a talented actor and Park Shin Hye has also played well alongside many actors in previous projects, their combination is still so bad that no one can explain why. With so many shortcomings, Sisyphus: Mythology fails is understandable.
Kim Da Mi & Park Seo Joon – Itaewon Class
In this case, the audience thinks that Park Seo Joon has great chemistry with Kwon Nara while he and Kim Da Mi don’t look like a couple at all. However, it is understandable since most of the time in the 16 episodes Park Seo Joon has a crush on Kwon Nara while he and Da Mi have very little time as a couple.
Kim Yoo Jung & Ji Chang Wook – Backstreet Rookie
Although Ji Chang Wook and Kim Yoo Jung both have outstanding visuals, their chemistry does not leave an impression on viewers. Maybe that’s one of the reasons why this drama didn’t do as well as expected.
Song Hye Kyo & Park Bo Gum – Encounter
Encounter is a disappointing drama of Song Hye Kyo and Park Bo Gum for various reasons, including the two’s poor chemistry. Song Hye Kyo is usually considered to have a youthful appearance, but when standing next to Park Bo Gum, she looks significantly older than her co-star. Not only that but viewers are also fed up with the way the two interact in the drama. It seems that the age gap prevents them from having better interactions.
Kim Go Eun & Lee Min Ho – The King: Eternal Monarch
Since the debut of The Eternal King, the audience has always mentioned the couple Kim Go Eun and Lee Min Ho to give an example of how bad the interaction between the two main actors is. Even thinking about it, it’s hard to explain why the two’s “chemistry” in this drama is so bad. Many viewers even commented that the interaction between Lee Min Ho and Woo Do Hwan was several times better than between him and Kim Go Eun.
Im Soo Hyang & Cha Eun Woo – Gangnam Beauty
Perhaps the main reason why this couple has such a bad interaction is due to the personalities of the two characters. Both of these characters are people who are less emotional and always appear cool throughout the drama. Playing the same type of character, but Cha Eun Woo in True Beauty had much better chemistry with Moon Ga Young.
The 6 couples above are all actors with outstanding good looks. So it can be seen that sometimes the actor’s beauty is not the most important thing to make a perfect couple in Korean dramas.
