View Comments

• I feel so bad for Kimgoeun ,she doesn't deserve the hate she's getting.

  • I know - just because she's not "classically" beautiful! At least she doesn't look interchangeable with the next starlet and, ahem, can act!

    • I think she's beautiful, she reminds me of Gong hyo Jin (who also used to get hate for for "ugly " but won people over with her acting ) they both have this charm to them that makes them so beautiful, natural, talented ladies ! But people are acting like Kimgoeun cleaned her toilet with a washcloth and shoved it down their mothers throat -_- ,the hate isn't justified

    • I'm so happy when people shower her with praise when Cheese aired. But after her interview people back to hating her look.

• Lmfao yo, the story reminds of me ofarang and the magistrate

• She indeed very talented young actress, but i think she still lack of star power..

  • Which actresses do you think have star power?

    • The previous female leads of KES' dramas? People shouldn't have expected another top star given this is cable though and they are already paying Gong Yoo.

• She was already confirmed apparently and knetz are ripping her to shreds! I don't think I saw one positive comment in that comment section. Will the writer change her mind? Song Hye Kyo got a few negative comments too when she was cast in DOTS, but SHK is a huge star, while KGE is still starting. I have a feeling this casting drama will be more entertaining that the drama itself lol

  • Just curious. In knetizens' mind, whom do they prefer to be the leading lady?

    • They want someone more beautiful and with more star power, possibly older, but their main problem is that she's less attractive than previous actresses that played the lead in Kim Eun Sook's dramas.

    • I think even if Kim Go Eun get cast in anything other than this, she will still get so many hate.

    • I think mostly they want Jung Yumi or YEH..

• She's not beautiful enough? This just goes to prove the skewed values in entertainment. What should matter is that she is an incredibly talented actress, with charm and personality and her own unique look. Instead, everybody wants her to look the same as every other freaking "star" in Korea. If Meryl Streep was Korean I think she'd be stuck playing the waitress on the main couple's first date.

• She's not bad, but I can get the complaints about her given the typical KES female lead. They are all huge stars and known to be seriously beautiful, while this girl really isn't.

  • Honestly, ppl just have different aesthetic values. For me, not all the female leads in KES' dramas are beautiful. I don't think Ha Hi Won is SERIOUSLY beautiful (plus she's suspicious of having PS done). Kim Sun A is charming but not considered beautiful in my eyes. I have another example whose looks are totally not my cup of tea. I don't want to say the same since a swarm of rabid fans would tackle me with their dirty mouthing. In my eyes, KGE owns no inferior looks to these actresses. Ppl who can't act with star power (i.e. more popular or well-known) suck multiple times more than those who have acting chops but look average.

    • I meant Ha *Ji Won

    • WHat part of HJW that you're suspicious? TEll me.

• Love love her! In all the 3 movies I have seen her so far, she is always intense! Not afraid to be gritty and dirty. Wonder if she will play a totally different role this time. About how she looks, she actually resemble Suzy, forgot the title, but in that movie she made where she was also made to look unglamorous. If KGE is styled like an idol, we will see her differently....... But people see her mostly in her movies where she is natural, more like real life. I'll look forward to watching this , both actors mostly of the big screen .

• Go Kim Go Eun! Go! Knetz needs to stay pressed. I love Park Has Jin, but really? Hating her over an interview just because she didn't speak up for him is a bit much. So all the praises she got during the show before just disappeared. They didn't care about her appearance then. *eyeroll*
  Anyway she won't really get quality with this writer, but at least star power they say she's lacking lol They quickly forgot about SHK tax scandal, didn't they? So she'll be fine.

  • SHK is a huge top star and the first person cast in DotS, and a big reason SJK even took the role says him. They could make petty comments about her age or tax scandal, but nothing else. Stop comparing the two. The comments about KGE's looks are unnecessary, but the rest they aren't wrong about.

    • Mmm I'm not trying to pit them against each other or say they have the same star power. You don't need to school me on SHK star power. My point was mostly on knetizens changing their opinions on a whim. KGE has been getting hate for a long time now even in articles about her being on vacation with another actor. I just used SHK as an example in terms of their fickleness. I guess I should have used someone else *shrugs*

• I don't like this writer, her dramas were too cheesy and childish lol, I'm a huge fan of Song Joong Ki and I still hasn't continue Dots starting from ep. 3, it's just too cheesy I keep cringing

  • TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!!!

    • Right? but I'll still give this a chance maybe the first two episodes, I hope it's not to cheesy as usual lol

• KES needs to have one drama that fails, maybe this one will be the one. She is the absolute darling of Asia. However, her dramas are really cheesy. That's her style and it seems the women of Asia can't get enough of her writing style (I can understand because her dramas makes your idol churn out cheesy lines which he would never say in real-life). It really doesn't matter who the lead actress is.
