Ha Ji Won Voted Worst Onscreen Kisser in Hilarious K-netizen Poll

View Comments

• Don't agree.Park shin hye is the worst kisser.

  • What dramas have you seen of Park Shin Hye??? Don't tell me your judgement is based on Heirs only. I actually agree with k-netz, HJW is a stiff kisser.

    • Does it matter which dramas? Every kiss up to Pinocchio is cringe worthy.

    • PSH is pretty bad a kissing tho. I thought LMH was a bad kisser then I watched LoBS then I realized it's BBC he didn't have much to work with in Heirs

    • Bcz those replyers didn't see pinocchio nor doctors nor flower boy next dramas to admit she is willing to kiss Bcz they are haters so don't reply on non fans called themselves as the philosophers of Korean dramas they will keep commenting "she can't kiss" Bcz the ignorance

  • I agree. PSH looks always looking like she's cringing. I'm sure the direction she's given in every kiss scene isn't "think creeper's got you". She's an actor, she's supposed to pretend to like the lead. Not only when she actually likes the lead (Pinocchio). And I like her as an actress, I see her faults. Some can't cry, emote anger without bug glare, or play drunk (seems to be the first thing to learn), PSH can't kiss.

    • Are you saying PSH was good with her kiss scene with LJS  only because she was supposedly dating him?? Lololol, okay she must be dating Kim Rae Won now because Doctors kiss scenes were even better hahhahah

  • Agree with you @Nilechocolate, it's almost like PSH is the most famous Korea actress so let's jump on her and name her. They are biased on their perceptions. They haven't watched enough of other Kactresses acting.

  • LOL very much spot on about PSH. I really think she is worse than HJW.

    • You think , no the exact word is you Didn't see or won't admit she is kissing like a normal person in doctors but haters don't have minds to think .

  • Why keep sterotype PSH is a bad kisser? Maybe in her early days drama, she was but she's improving in Pinocchio and especially in Doctors. Thanks to KRW, he's a great kisser and he lead her well but good kiss scene is a give and take, both actor and actress have responsibility so please watch the drama before any judgement and highly recommend to watch the dcut version of Doctors. Their kiss is sensual.

• Lol, couldn't agree more.

• I wouldn't call HJW's fridge kiss with Lee Seung Gi TK2H a dead fish pucker though. I fact she was partcipative in most if not all the kisses in TK2H.

  • @ Madqueen
    I concur!!!

  • I agree. TK2H actually had pretty decent kisses.

• Park Shin Hye definitely deserves to be on this list though. Ha Ji Won is a great actress though, I love the way she looks at her leading men...

  • My TOP 5 :

    1) PSH
    2) Han Ga In
    3) HJW
    4) Shin Se Kyung
    5) GHJ - although I saw some lip movement in Jealousy Incarnate otherwise she would have been one of the TOP 3.

    • i wouldnt list GHJ- she had such hot kissing scenes in It's ok thats love, opposite Jo In Sung. Yes to all the rest on your list. I maybe would say its a tie among the top3

    • U r right. How could I forget about IOTH!!! Awesome kisses. I need to take her off the list now.

    • Not agree as said watch PSH in Doctors before any judgement.

• Nah ... on KTH. She gave effort. There are a lot worst.

• On the contrary, I don't enjoy passionate open mouth kiss scene for Asian actors. I have no issue watching Hollywood actors in total making-out scenes but I really do feel uncomfortable watching Asian actors doing so. So yeah, I like what HJW has been giving us and she still sell the romance to me even with that constricted kiss.

  • Its uncomfortable watching asians kiss because asians themselves look uncomfortable when they are kissing.

    • Hahaha I laughed so hard with this statement.

      Those actresses don't do open mouth kisses. I think we are talking arms hanging limply, lips still, eyes open or closed kissing. Some participation even pressing lips towards the male would be movement. We are not ambitious about open mouthed passionate kissing. It won't pass the NC 15 rating for the 2155hrs dramas.

    • God, this made me laugh so hard. But in Korean films we do get proper kissing , so I guess it's a dramaland thingy?

  • hmm but whats the point to kiss, constricted or not and looked like u dont enjoy it

• I always found it weird as to why fans would get so worked up on how a drama would have couples kiss, and then go on to say it wasn't hot enough. Funny how back in the early 80's Hong Kong family drama including wuxia such as the '83 condor heroes or other hit Hong Kong dramas that are considered classics today did not have anyone kissing, and yet those are the most memorable dramas and the ones that are held as a barometer to >30 years later.

• i do agree with gu hye sun,but i think they forget song hye kyo.

  • She definitely wasn't prudish in Worlds Within with Hyun Bin though.

• Kang Dong Won? I don't remember he kissed anybody on screen

  • Kang dong win had a passionate kissing scene with Song Hye Kyo in Camellia, Love for Sale.

    But if his other movies, he doesn't prefer to have romantic scenes.

    Camellia is the exception?

• The problem isn't lack of deep kissing. Even without kissing you can make your audience hot and bothered:) The problem is the basic male-female structuring of K-dramas which gives a woman very little agency, even suppressed sexual longing is not allowed. Plus the ridiculous style of shooting kisses.

  Despite this actresses like YEH, Shim Mim-a, Park Bo-young and Yoo In-na bring both spunk and passion to a romance (YEH being the best, girl knows how to commit to a role even in the worst cases). Actresses like Moon Chae-won seem to be able to convey passion without much kissing. On the other hand I adore GHJ but her one fault is her prudishness with kissing. She is a good enough actor to cover it up but there is no denying her inability to truly bring out a passionate side.

  I haven't seen many K-dramas so my list is not definitive. Movies are different of course, especially K-movies which tend to Restricted rating.
