My Favourite Korean Actresses
I have been watching K-Dramas since 2009 - and there have been so many artists who have awed me with their work.
Sharing some of my absolute favorites - have seen them in various genres/versatile roles and loved every bit of it. These ladies have powerful performances and not the usual cringe worthy stereotypes that FL suffers through.
This list is NOT in any order but just a list of my favorites - and if you are reading this, would love to hear your favorites among mine or someone else in comments or DM. Cheers!

Shin Hye Sun
Corea del Sud
I am so glad Mr Queen happened for her and what a big hit it was!
Have seen her in supporting roles in She was Pretty, The Legend of the Blue Sea, Stranger - and even in those limited minutes of screen time, she proved again and again what a talented actress she is.
Can't wait to see more of her projects - she is one of those actresses whose show I will give a try no matter the rating/reviews, cause I know she will be good and carry the show -

Kim Seul Gi
Corea del Sud
Can we please have her in lead role? Splash Splash Love was not enough.
Another actress who deserves more recognition than she gets - as I believe somewhere we have in our minds, set standard for the leading FL, but I really wish her talent outshines that we get to see more of her in dramas and movies.
Usually you would assume she would do comedic/sarcastic roles - but her work in The Guardian, Splash Splash Love, Queen of Ring and Oh My Ghost also shared her versatile acting. -

Hwang Jung Eum
Corea del Sud
I saw her first in She was Pretty, then in Kill Me Heal Me, Secret - and omg she has been so amazing. Every work of her and character is worth remembering for.
She brings in comedic relief while essaying roles that have emotional conflict with such ease that it is a delight to watch such an actress on screen. -

Park Bo Young
Corea del Sud
This list would be incomplete without her - or rather K Dramas would be incomplete without her. Small powerhouse who is so lovely and showcases her presence in a variety of roles.
