7 Top Kpop Idols Turned Actors

-
As fans of Kpop, we all like to see our Bae try something new, especially acting because then we get to see them weekly for some-time. Some idols succeed in giving us perfect satisfaction as actors and some don't. We keep loving them though, just not as actors. Everyone probably has their list of the best Idol-Actors and we decided to share our list with you. 

Best Kpop Idols Who Can Act


1. Choi Siwon ( Super Junior)


Super Junior's first centre "Choi Siwon" is probably one of the best Idol-Actors you could think about. His first role in the drama "Oh My Lady" was very good. Although the drama itself was not highly rated, his acting did show enough talent to grab the attention of various directors. He followed that role with some unique roles in dramas like Posseidon, She Was Pretty, King of Dramas, etc. No one can forget his acting in “ I Was Pretty”, it left us all heartbroken with the worst second lead syndrome you could think about. His final role in the drama " My Fellow Citizens" shows such unique comedic acting. The writing itself also shows unique potential as it discusses social aspects in a different and unique setting.

2. Park Hyung-Sik (ZEA)


Although ZEA members are no longer together, too many of these talented guys are actors right now and Park Hyung-Sik is amongst the most well-known members. Who didn't hear about " Strong Woman Do Bong Soon"? I think no one. Park Hyung-Sik has a very sweet voice but he is also a very good actor as well. Try the Korean version of "Suits" if you wish to see his acting ability. 

3. Seo In Guk 


Although many people know this guy as an actor, the truth is he did not start as an actor. Seo In Guk started as a singer and he literally has one of the best voices I ever heard. Seo In Guk is very well-known amongst the international community thanks to his roles in dramas like I Remember You, Reply 1997 and Shopaholic Louis. 

4. Junho (2PM) 


Junho is probably the 2nd member of 2PM to gain attention due to his acting skills. If you ever watched "Chief Kim", you probably know what I am talking about. His acting from his very first drama was just perfect and he managed to follow it up directly with a leading role. His leading role in "Just Between Lovers" is simply amazing. His role was extremely sad and complicated and he managed to deliver all the emotions perfectly. 

5. Ok Taecyeon ( 2PM) 


You can't mention 2PM without mentioning Taecyeon. Taecyeon is probably the first to get noticed as an actor in this boy group. His role in "Cindrella's Step Sister" was his starting point and "Dream High" was the beginning of a streak of leading roles for him. He is not in the same company as 2PM anymore, however, they all did mention that they will still be together so we will have to wait and see. 

6. Rain


Who did not hear about Rain before? I am sure no one. You all probably heard about "Full House" before and if you still haven't watched it, go and watch. This classic drama is a gem in terms of acting, comedy and even romance. Rain is still an amazing actor until now; watch his latest drama " Sketch" if you wish to see a unique drama with suspense, mystery, Sci-Fi and much more.

7. Hoya ( Infinite) 
Hoya is a former Infinite member who gained a lot of attention as an actor due to his unique role in "Reply 1997". He also recently appeared in another unique character as a weak intern in the drama " Radiant Office".  He has a lot of potential as an actor and we seriously wish to see him as the lead soon. 
Now, what do you think of this list? Do you have another list you'd like to share with us? Tell us who is your favourite Idol turned actor.

BeetBits: Move To Heaven

 Probably the fastest binge ever in my own history of binge-watching. Move To Heaven is a short 10 episode drama produced by Netflix, especially for Kdrama lovers. It explores life and death through the story of the workers at Move To Heaven trauma cleaning agency. From Lee Je Hoon to the newly discovered Tang Joon-Sang, the cast for this drama is more than top-notch.  Trauma Cleaning  Ever heard of trauma cleaning? Personally, I have never heard nor even thought about them. It is weird, they say, "away from the eyes, away from the mind." It is totally true in this case. I have even written about unconventional careers before for a job; surprisingly, this job was not even mentioned anywhere. It is like the whole industry of crime scene cleaning is not exactly recognized by people. After reading a few articles about a trauma cleaner's job, it is a job that requires handling chemical materials that remove the worst type of contamination you can think of. Certainly, a j...

Actor Scope: Choi Tae Joon

Tae Joon is one of the actors I believe need more attention from the public. He is not as famous as other actors internationally despite being a great actor with a good resume. He started his career as a child actor. However, he stopped for a bit during puberty and returned as a handsome guy through Padam Padam (2011). He is also a full-round entertainer. I always look around searching for more content for this guy which is why I think this article will be the most prolonged Actor Scope ever for me.  Variety Shows  I can’t mention this guy without mentioning his appearances on Korean variety shows. I got to know him as the  Choi Tae Joon of Hello Counselor  at first so I will start from it.  Hello Counselor  (2010) Tae Joon is probably the only actor to join the cast of this famous Korean variety show. It is a show that receives citizens concerns and tries to solve them through discussions. He first appeared as a regular ...

BeetBits: Good Morning Call

Good Morning Call Cast Taken from a famous manga, "Good Morning Call" is a Netflix Original Japanese drama  starring  Haruka Fukuhara,  Shun'ya Shiraishi,  Dôri Sakurada  and produced by Mayuko Okamoto and Akimitsu Sasaki. The drama started airing on 2016 and currently has two full seasons following the main couple throughout both high school and university. Good Morning Call manga was written by Yue Takasuka and sold more than 5-million copies. Although the manga itself is popular, as a person who never read the manga before, my review will only consist of my opinion on the drama alone, without any comparisons to the manga. On IMDB, the rate for this drama is 7.9, which is extremely high if you count the genre of the drama. Typical rom-com dramas are rarely actually given good rating cuz of the repetitive storyline and the level of acting. Personally, I have stayed away from a lot of the famous live adaptations of mangas that I love, because of h...
