"Queen of Tears" is currently on the air. With its smooth and full plot and the solid and delicate acting skills of the male and female protagonists,
has firmly occupied the throne of the "Korean drama topic king" in recent times.
The male protagonist Kim Soo-hyun returns to the small screen with no less momentum than before.
Song Joong-ki, who is also an A-list actor, makes a friendly guest appearance in episode 8.
plays Vincenzo, the divorce lawyer of the heroine Hong Hae-in, and has wonderful scenes opposite Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won.
Song Joong Ki, Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun are all good friends.
He has collaborated with Kim Ji-won in "Descendants of the Sun" and "Arthdal Chronicles", and he and Kim Soo-hyun got to know each other on "Will It Snow on Christmas Eve".
At that time, he and Kim Soo-hyun were both fledgling film and television newcomers. They didn't have many roles, but they had great looks and natural acting skills. Now that they have become superstars in the Korean drama industry, it is a wonderful fate.
Song Joong Ki and Kim Soo Hyun are in the same frame, which also makes people discuss the current situation of these two super popular male stars.
Both of them have a smooth stardom. Song Joong-ki has masterpieces such as "The Good Man", "The Wolf Boy", "Descendants of the Sun" and "Vincenzo".
Kim Soo-hyun's "The Moon Embracing the Sun" and "My Love from the Star" are also big hits.
In terms of private life, Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo have become the focus of the public due to their drama, flash marriage, sudden divorce news, etc.
is currently married to his girlfriend outside the industry and has children, and his family life is sweet.
Kim Soo Hyun rarely has any scandals. Even if there were scandals with Seo Ye Ji, Kim Sae Ron, etc. from the same company, they were denied and he always focused on his work.
Song Joong Ki has been seeking transformation in the past few years, but it doesn't seem to be going well.
"The Young Son of the Chaebol Family" is a high-investment drama with a male protagonist. The male protagonist lived a miserable life in his previous life, and his soul traveled to the youngest son of the chaebol group, starting a reversal story.
The characters have experienced ups and downs, and there is a lot of room for acting.
But Song Joong-ki's performance was not satisfactory;
was not only criticized for his frequent lip-smacking actions, but also was completely crushed when he was on the same stage with veteran actor Lee Sung-min.
In the end, Lee Sung Min won the Baeksang King Trophy, but Song Joong Ki got nothing and was ruthlessly ridiculed by netizens.
The movie "The End of the Road" has made obvious progress, delicately portraying the desolation and loneliness of North Korean defectors in a foreign country, and also reproducing highly infectious acting skills in scenes opposite newcomer actresses.
However, from the appearance point of view, many people feel that Song Joong Ki is too tired and has not maintained the tight and plump state in "Descendants of the Sun". Compared with Kim Soo Hyun, who has been self-disciplined for many years, Song Joong Ki still has a sense of age. Quite obvious.
Of course, Kim Soo Hyun is also facing a certain career crisis.
After retiring from the army, his films such as "It's Okay, It's Okay" and "One Day" were well-received, but their popularity was average and could not be compared with his peak period. The movie "real" was even more of a disaster, with both box office and critical reviews failing. Street, people have raised the question "whether Kim Soo Hyun has passed away".
Fortunately, this year he returned to the familiar field of romantic dramas and returned to TV dramas with "Queen of Tears". His co-screenwriter Park Ji-eun is his old friend, and he has also worked on previous "My Love from the Star" and "The Producers" Written by Park Ji-eun, this is the third collaboration, the tacit understanding remains the same, and the hit rate is almost 100%.
For Song Joong-ki, how to complete the transformation into a powerful group is a top priority.
As a first-line star, he has a wide range of scripts to choose from. How to choose high-quality and challenging scripts and roles requires careful consideration.
For Kim Soo-hyun, "Queen of Tears" helped him successfully turn around and brought a double harvest of traffic and popularity. How can stabilize its popularity and continue to output high-quality works is also critical.
are both top stars. It is difficult to tell who has better acting skills and better looks. Therefore, a reliable work is the most important to them. I look forward to more exciting performances from them in the future.
