Fans often mention some of their favorite idols as “actor-like” because of their clean facial features that will shine if they act
The “2023 Melon Music Awards” took place on Dec 2nd. On the red carpet, STAYC’s J appeared with the visual of an “actress”, attracting attention. J wore a glamorous black dress, showcasing an elegant figure. Fans showed positive reactions such as “J looks like an actress“, “I thought J was at the Blue Dragon Film Awards“, “I hope J gets to act“…
In fact, J is known to have been a former actress trainee under JYP Entertainment.
BTS’s Jin, who is globally popular, is also one of the figures that fans hope will debut as an actor.
Jin’s good looks are particularly highlighted when he receives close-ups and one-shots at events or on stage. Fans express their desire to see him in movies whenever an opportunity arises.
Actor Kim Nam-gil once mentioned Jin’s “actor-like” face. In 2020, he commented while looking at a sample book containing Jin’s face on the online channel “DICON”, “Although he’s an idol, he has an actor’s face.” He also mentioned that Jin’s vibe changes depending on the atmosphere.
IVE’s leader An Yujin is also often mentioned as an idol with an “actress-like” appearance.
An Yujin exudes an actress-like feeling with distinct facial features and a unique vibe. After receiving high praise for her crying acting in IVE’s music video “Either Way”, voices hoping for her debut as an actress have grown.
When her acting received positive reactions, An Yujin herself showed ambition about acting on the online channel “Channel 15ya” in October. However, she emphasized “IVE is active now” and is currently focusing on idol activities.
It remains to be seen whether J, Jin, An Yujin and other idol members with an “actor-like” appearance will engage in acting activities in the future.
