These Korean actresses make the viewers want to “gatekeep” the male lead.
Beautiful and famous, but the following 3 actresses make fans of male stars anxious every time they are confirmed to join the same project, and here’s why.
1. Shin Se Kyung
Shin Se Kyung has always been a controversial actress, ever since the day the second season of hit sitcom High Kick ended on a tragic note. In many other dramas and films, Shin Se Kyung also draws critical comments for her stiff acting and lack of emotions, affecting even the performances of her male co-stars. That’s why fans of male stars are not so pleased if their bias takes on a role alongside Shin Se Kyung.
2. Song Hye Kyo
Song Hye Kyo‘s popularity can undoubtedly benefit her co-stars if they join the same cast lineup with her. However, not every fan wants to see their favorite actors share the same frame with Song Hye Kyo. This is because Song Hye Kyo has a “reputation” of getting involved in dating rumors and also official romantic relationships with her male co-stars after filming together. Therefore, whenever Song Hye Kyo confirms her participation in a new project with a handsome actor, not only fans but Korean netizens also leave comments telling the actor to be careful not to be “seduced” by Song Hye Kyo.
3. Ryu Hwa Young
As an idol-turned actress, Ryu Hwa Young has received many compliments from the viewers for her natural acting. Leaving T-Ara in 2012 after the bullying scandal, she quickly achieved much success in acting with challenging roles. However, after the truth about Ryu Hwa Young being bullied by T-Ara members was revealed, the public started to turn their backs on her. Every time she takes on a new role, fans of male stars are against their bias acting alongside a female celebrity with such a controversy over her personality like Hwa Young.
