When K-ent decides on their buzzy stars it’s always the same names dominating the news cycle for that period. 2021 is heading into the final quarter soon and all the dramas on schedule have been cast and filmed/filming so it’s time to take a look at what is being watched by the industry. K-news is reporting on the four young actresses in the same age group that are on deck this fall/winter 2021 with anticipated K-dramas that will either continue their hot trajectory or put a damper on things. There is Kim Tae Ri who is starring opposite Nam Joo Hyuk in Twenty Five, Twenty One, a modern period drama set in the IMF crisis. Kim Go Eun will be in the K-drama adaptation of Yumi’s Cells which is really centered around her character and a bevy of male leads. It’ll be a two-fer of IT leads for the upcoming That Year, Us with Kim Da Mi and Choi Woo Shik, and last but not lead Han So Hee will be segueing from the underwhelming Nevertheless to her next drama the Netflix action drama My Name. To me the outlier in gathering these four actresses in the same article is Han So Hee who has yet to have a hit drama or movie as a lead herself whereas the other three have a longer resume and headlined hits under their belt.

Is 21-25 set in the IMF crises? Wasn't it from 1999-2003? The IMF crises was in 1997 if I remember correctly.
KTR and KGE have both headlined hit dramas but they did with the help of more popular male leads and hit writers. They still have to prove their ability to carry dramas on their own. Nevertheless is a flop but HSH isn't at fault for that she still has the potential for hit dramas if she gets the same treatment as KTR and KGE. KDM has only had one drama with a popular male star but her movie was a hit that she carried on her own.
KGE debuted in a blockbuster movie
Almost all these actresses are originally movie stars with Kim Taeri and Kim Goeun breaking out through hit erotic movies. Its a bug deal for Han Sohee to be put in the same category. Proves her star potential and public love.
Kim Ji Won is casted in the new kdrama by My Mister writer, and Han hyo joo will also be in the upcoming dystopic kdrama Hapiness, with Park Hyung Sik. Wonder why they weren't mentioned. HHJ is not from the same age range though, but still.
And that answers your question on why HHJ was not included. It's because she's not in the same range.?
Those drama's will probably air in 2022
HHJ has scandals because of her brother and KJW isn't considered a trending actress anymore. She would be in 2017-18 but not anymore.
Kim Ji-won is still a bigger actress than Kim Da-mi and arguably also Han So-hee. Kim Ji-won is a bonafide actress, whilst Han So-hee is pushed so hard after the TWOTM but apparently not able to pull in the ratings on her own.
Park juhyun is also one of the upcoming actress to look out for . After watch extracurricular and mouse in which was the leading role she can also ? be apart of the trending upcoming actress.

Damn how did I miss the news that Kim tae ri would be acting with nam joo hyuk. Its laughable really but I respect his hussle, he's clearly lucky with a good management.
He has always had great luck with his female co stars. Starting from Kim sohyun to Kim taeri he has almost always had actresses who can cover for him.
Very true the excellent actresses he acted with atleast helped shine somewhat. Except suzy haha but then again he's atleast better than her.
it's very interesting to see the power they hold (except han sohee, already saw her rating drama performance in nevertheless) to carry the drama without the bigger co-star. previously, we had ktr-lee byung hoon, kim dami- park seojun, and kim goeun- gongyoo/lee minho. their previous drama had a good rating (goblin for kge).
Seo ye ji would probably be in there with the ocn drama, she's awful though so good riddance.
I wonder about lee sung kyung since she headlined arguably the biggest drama of 2020.
Huh?
Maybe visuals, don't think Han So Hee belongs to the same league as Kim Ta Ri, Kim Go Eun and Kim Da Mi acting wise.
Agreed.
