In the few years that Suzy and Lee Seung Gi have matured since their first collaboration in sageuk Gu Family Book, and moving their characters up a few hundred years to modern times, some things never change. In the latest Suzy-centric teaser for upcoming SBS action thriller Vagabond, she still reads her dialogue so flat and it’s distracting against the backdrop of action scenes. Like she’s laying in bed telling him to trust her lol, but the action sequences look great with plenty of chemistry to spare between the leads. Whatever is lacking in believability factor with Suzy, I see Lee Seung Gi making up for it with his angry vigilante energy shooting sparks everywhere.
Suzy teaser for Vagabond:
This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

All the same old Suzy, same old cliche looking drama, I want to feel this I really do but unfortunately am not feeling it.... I hope they change my mind somehow.
Why do good writers and PDs waste their drama on types of Suzy when they can get very talented actress at much lesser price? It's not like big stars win ratings these days.
Why does Suzy never work on improving her acting skills? Even a rock can act with constant practice. Despite getting one big chance after another why does she not feel embarrased of all of negative comments directed at her?
She has money and resources at her disposal to get best training. But no, these stralets take everything for granted.
Imagine a sports person getting Olympics ticket despite poor performance or a medical student getting degree despite failing his exams !
When we can't tolerate inefficiency in other work fields then why with the acting?
It's not like acting is a joke. It's a very tough job and it takes decades for actors to grab the nuances.
I feel it's really abhorrent how these lazy actors/actresses don't take their profession seriously and make mockery out of the K- dramas. There is nothing to learn from them except art of making money.
Suzyiaaaah! atleast you can learn to deliever your lines properly. If you don't have passion for acting then better retire so that viewers can take K dramas and profession of acting seriously...?
@Female - all very good, valid points you made there.
But the truth is she gets hired because PPL pays for drama budgets, and she hasca lot of endorsements = more PPL potential. I think it's ridiculous for writers and PDs to be wasting so much time trying to make her acting look slightly better when she's been acting for 8 years and still like this.
Also her fans love to bash Park Shin Hye but PSH had done You're Beautiful, Cyrano Agency and Flower Boy Next Door by the time she was younger than Suzy is now, and I don't see Suzy ever putting out a performance as good as those. The old excuse used to be "Suzy is an idol, PSH's job is actress" even when Suzy had no idol activities. Wonder what their excuse for this performance will be now that Suzy left her idol agency for an acting agency lol - do you think they'll blame the PD? The writer? Anything other than admit her own lack of talent is the ptoblem.
@salmos
Oops! I accidently replied to you. It was supposed to be an independent post.?
The pd looks great tho, maybe they can save her like how HDL's PD save IU
HDL's PD did direct Suzy in While you were sleeping. And she wasn't too bad in that one.
suzy is hopeless. i feel bad for LSG, hope he gets paid well.
I'm excited to see more Shin Sung Rok. And he's not the villain. Hurahhh!
After reading the director's interview, I think there are several reasons for her casting, just my assumption. First, the budget, they need someone can attract investors. Second, they need an actress can do action scenes. Third, seems like they had a hard time casting actress for this drama. She is popular, can do action scenes and gladly accepted this project, that's all they need to make this drama come true. As for acting, I can only hope and pray she's improving for the sake of the cast and for herself too because she isn't newbie anymore, no more excuse for her acting.
Her fans call her Legend for this terrible acting. Their standards have fallen so low. Now look like late 90s has some pure real actresses emerging who can act and these terrible idol actresses has ruined so many shows. They could've casted someone like kim tae ri who is getting popular and can act circles around this wooden piece of plank. Unlike suzy these actresses has to work hard to get roles. This idol actres has banked on male leads like yoona and when suzy got her own movie few years back flopped hard. Even yoona was flopping for years before exit movie where script director and male lead worked hard to make it hit. Funny yoona and suzy fans try to credit them. First of all how can someone be fan of these bad actresses?
KTR has a steady movie career why would she do dramas? Suzy has a mass fan following so no matter how much you dislike her acting as long as she has the bigger fan base she'll be the first pick of most directors and writers. We can keep going back and forth on this but it won't change what is real even if it is unfair. Suzy and other big named idol actresses have big companies and strong fan bases to back them for the rest of their careers. They'll move on to being serious actresses in the eyes of the public at some point I mean IU is already there and Yoona is on her way to success as well. Suzy, Hyeri and Seolhyun are getting better scripts than any of their counterparts. Look at the awful scripts PSH, KSR and PBY get and its always some weird romance drama and compare that to the variety of scripts these girls are getting. Recently only GA and SSK have started getting a broader range of scripts but these girls are already hitting 30 and its a little late in their career to be branching out.
I thought PSH has a hugh fanbase. MOA script is good, just that her acting sucks. SSK is always good in sagueks and she has also done modern dramas (although not as good), so saying SSK is late in branching out is wrong. SSK is 2 months younger than Yoona, so your nonsense theory about big named idol actresses is not valid.
Is there really that big acting difference between Suzy and PSH? Aren't they both differently but equally bad? Suzy has better kiss scenes and maybe a bigger fandom but yeah they both need acting classes. Maybe Suzy takes more risks with her characters but they aren't that broad or varied at the end of the day. PSH we all know does the same character her whole career with flower boy or popular actors.
Candy ny biases r not over the hill. And they still earn more. My bias jun ji hyun recently got big alien movie offer as main lead which was confirmed and she is in discussion . Shk already was in talk with hyena show which she refused. U think iu will get that when she will be her age lol! So when u come for my bias come with atleast facts. My bias is s tier actress who holds so much aura that dhe can take break and still make millions from cfs and offers will never be short. Can iu afford break? She suzy types know the break will destroy them lol. Comparing iu to ts wont make her taylor swift in success. It was about her weak vocals and ts can sell albums
Excuse me? I am trying to straighten you out about IU. She is not my bias, but she is not that bad for you to bash. Leave the talented one alone please. Your bias cannot sing, not one has sold any records ever. I have been to IU’s concert & she can sing live perfectly. What about yours? Not one with a voice let alone writing music. So you should refrain from commenting about music, period!! This is not your area. Suzy cannot do anything so she’s your to trash ? Enjoy.
@yura no 90s actresses doing well now. Ktr has became cf queen after mr sunshine and is a proven actress. Iu suzy yoona will never be respected as actress. Iu just got one hit drama and people like u think she is great lol. Yoona was flopping for years and finally got hit bcoz of male lead and director and script wheras seolhyun drama flopped. hyeri has done nthng after reply show...Suzy always bank on male leads. so no.
Directors r giving real actresses chance too. SSK is already a cf queen whereas psh is doing well too and her drama r hit too. ur point is invalid.
Yoona suzy hyeri iu will be over when they hit their late 30s. They wont last like taehyeji. period!
Late 90s real actresses has started doing well. Kim so hyun kim yoo jung became cf queen at age of 17 when love in moonlight became bb. Whereas suzy and types will be replaced by new set of bad idol actresses.
Real actresses r going nowhere. And future looks bright with new emerging pure actresses. N ssk is of yoona's age and has already better acting career. your point is useless
suzy will be over at taehyeji age
IU has two hit dramas - HDL and MA. IU is a good actress. Please do not group her with Suzy and especially Hyeri. No comment on Yoona coz she is older and approaching 30. IU will not be over at late 30s. She can sing, write songs, act - very multi-talented, one of a kind. IU cannot be replaced, she will always have her spot in music and now in acting. Name another female celebrity who can cover so many different areas in K-entertainement. This is my honest opinion.
Covering so many fields doesnt makes j gud. She is song writer. Her voice is weak as well just like taylor swift bad singer.
Hotel shit whit is only show which was sold on hk sisters and grand sets and fashion. Whereas my mister was decent drama but not any big hit first of all. The producers was sold on kim soo hyun name and had gong hye .. whereas we all know how she destroyed scarlett moon. She has no visuals and will have no acting career in mid 30s Where as will be singing osts fot dramas as her album and digitals will shrink with most singers in their 30s. Her albim sales r bad too. She is just digitals
IMO IU is good, not the best, but certainly good enough. You obviously don’t have an answer to my question. What’s the point of talking so much about when she is in mid 30s, it’s still a long way to go, while your bias are almost over the hill. You sound very jealous of young people. There is no creditability to your predictions. Being Taylor Swift is great, do you know how many concerts she has sold out?
Hey we know who you are just because you changed your name doesn't mean you've disguised yourself. Stop ranting about late 90s actresses those are still children and far from ever reaching IU, Suzy or Yoona level and they are definitely not CF stars not even by a long shot. If BP and Twice members start acting those girls will get overshadowed just like all the current 92-96 line actresses have been overshadowed by idol actresses. Neither IU, Yoona or Suzy will be over by the time they reach taejihye age and who said taejihye was still relevant? Korea hates SHK, KTH can't act to save her life and JJH can only do her My Sassy Girl role over and over again she has no versatility. Taejihye is also is semi retirement for the last 5-6 years with hardly any acting projects. Having CFs doesn't mean anything especially since they all endorse local brands while IU, Suzy and Yoona are global ambassadors for big brands. Just stop with your nonsense against idol actresses. They'll continue to dominate over your faves.
I get that you're angry but please let's be rational about this ok..both SHK and JJH are S-tier actresses, a level that not everyone can easily achieve. No comeback from them doesn't mean they don't get offers. Top stars can afford to be choosy you know. Why do you think WB is still so relevant? And Korea hates SHK? Where do you get that information from? Nate? NB? Even if she's hated, her dramas still managed to get high ratings. She'd dealt with a bigger issue before, but did that stop Koreans from watching DotS and Encounter? Products she endorses are sold out, her articles are always on trending topics. If someone as huge as SHK or JJH is considered irrelevant, then what do you call other actresses? Lol
@Aisa I get that you're angry but please let's be rational about this ok..both SHK and JJH are S-tier actresses, a level that not everyone can easily achieve. No comeback from them doesn't mean they don't get offers. Top stars can afford to be choosy you know. Why do you think WB is still so relevant? And Korea hates SHK?

Omg who is hiding my name? Wow i m so scared u found my old name. Ouch what will u do? Lol ur delusion if u think wooden suzy iu yoona r bigger than taehyeji. It shows how blind delusion tard u r!!! They are still relevant and make huge vucks bcoz of their brand. Unlikr suzy iu yoons who cant take year offs bcoz they are replaceable
No twice members not gonna overshadow late 90s girls.
Jjh shk kth are s tier actresses and are called goddesses of korea. Jjh earns way more per cf than suzy when she was at her age. Pls do your research. Suzy cf salary falls around 600 700 million eon whereas jjh earns 1.5 million usd per cf. More than double
And do your research properly jjh kth shk brands are big brands and high end brands more than suzy who appears for every other damn brand. Still cant outearn then. Shk was invited to newyork fashion week which suzy will never. Yoona was irrelevant for years before a movie
Idol actresses are bad and real actresses will always be better.
Jjh shk kth were already iconic at their age.
U mocking jjh shk acting skilla for wooden suzy iu u r really blind fan . Idol actresses suck and will never be respected
Twice members will never overshadow kim so hyun and others who r emerhing fast and they have already got huge cfs
@ sunshine she is so delusional. She called jjh shk irrelevant. The actresses whose longevity goes 2 devades. Other actress if their gen who were their rivals in 2000s has been forgetton. This aisa dont even know lee young ae still to day earns highest cf salary when she went on hiatus for 12 years. That is s tier actresses.
Yoona suzy iu cant afford breaks. Iu will comeback with music without shows. Suzy never take breaks and yoona was flopping big tine and hasnt made cf lists for years.
And she says they are bigger than taehyeji. Delusional defines her
@YoonaSuzycantact Idk if you're really a fan of SHK or not but I would appreciate it if you can stop dragging her into your arguments. She doesn't deserve this.
@Candy young used to take break too. Jjh shk took breaks tok in their 20s. Likes of iu suzy types cant bcos they will be over. They cant afford to.
Queens r old too bad. Your iu will never be queen!! She us bad actress for me n u need to stop shoving down ur opinion. Wont chnage mine . Even if u write 100 times. Atleast suzy has looks. Iu is ugly
@mary who d fck r u to order me around? u dont have to feel bad for s tier actresses when u stan for mediocre stuff like suzy iu types. They will be over when they reach goddess's ages. They are pathetic and so r u
Agree with you. What the point to discuss 90' generation. This is business, acting is about act, work hard and money.Good acting but lazy and only make movie or drama /2-3 years is not enough. May be suzy acting's skill is not come close to the haters standard, but she become international brand ambassador, has many cf, producer and PD nim love her, fans crazy about her, her co star praise her highly (LSG), and all of this, she looks very happy, her life is full of fulfillment. Just wait and see what vagabond big impact in her career after all she had done in years of filming
Candy my bias jjh and shk r s tier actresses like your bias lee young ae who can take break for years and will never be short of offers. Jjh recently got alien movie offered where she is in talks and that movie is big bduget which iu type idol will never get. Shk refused big show bcoz of divorce and she can. They are not over the hills and still going strong after 2 decades. But iu suzy can never take breaks. Iu will release music bcoz she knows a couple ofyears break and she will be finished. Same with suzy wooden plank . Jjh can sit home and make more money from cfs than these idols.and will nev3r be short of offera. If u come for ky biases like jjh and shk, u will never win. They are queens. Iu suzy will never have that aura. And ts comparison was about voice. Ts is album seller and sold out showsm iu isnt. She can sell cheap singles
When IU in her late 30’s, all your bias will be over the hill. SMH you cannot even read properly. How many times you have to repeat the same thing here? Are you demented??
Btw, young people don’t need to take breaks. Only old ones do ???
Queen Elizabeth is 93 years old. Queens are old!! Good luck.
@yoonasuzycantact girl please grow the fck up. are you 12? bashing idol actresses isn't gonna stop them from being popular lmao. you sound like a bitter child. i feel bad for song hye kyo and jun ji hyun for having a fan like you.
Maybe Suzy botox her entire face because she never has an expression. Her face is the same blank look in every frame.
Yes u can check her old pics. She has changed her whole look. Only blind fans think she is natural. She is all plastic
She looks too young and too pretty. I didn't feel the spy aura she should have. By example, Kim So Yeon was not good at sport, but in IRIS she killed her role as a North Korea spy.
This aisa member is so delusional. Calling jjh shk irrelevant when they are still at top for 2 decades and jjh recently got big alien movie offer which suzy types will never get lol!! She is in position to relax for years and all producers lineup for her to carry such big movies. That is called s tier goddess. Shk and jjh r s tier goddesses. And she talked about their cfs being cheap when jjh shk endorse high end brands and get invited to big event all thr time. When jjh shk average way more salary lol. But suzy cant catch a break. Have to appear everywhere bcoz she knows if she takes break another plastic will take over lol. Yoona flop acting career is there before exit movie where she was d last reason it became hit.
And she talks about versatile when she stans suzy yoona hyeri iu of all people. So delusional. Suzy will be finished by their age and will be like another han ga in types. And yes they will be replaced by new gen of bad idols whereas real actresses will shine. I m glad kim tae ri ssk have picked up in their careers without any compamy and now getting top work. Kim tae ri already huge movie superstar!! Kim so hyun anoyher late 90s actress have emerged so fast and no twic e member will beat her. Cant wait to see suzy fadr away in her late 30s along with plasyic yoona
