Annual Year End Joynews Poll of K-ent Insiders Picks Top Actors of 2025 with IU Leading the List
The annual year end lists tend to start earlier and earlier which is fine, the last two months tend to fly by anyways. The annual Joynews poll of 110 K-ent insiders from producers, to agents, to writers, to directors and more is out and the first category is Top Drama Actor/Actress of the year. IU leads with 23 votes thanks to When Life Gives You Tangerines, followed by Yeom Hye Ran with 19 votes for the same drama, and then Yoona with 11 votes with the hit drama Bon Appetit, Your Majesty. The ladies are definitely on top this year and all three delivered winning projects for sure. The top three are followed by Park Bo Young with 9 votes and Han Suk Kyu with 6 votes to round out the top five
I’ve given up on kdramas with the lackluster actors and actresses. Screenwriter creativity is also lacking.. sadly..
There’s nothing lackluster about When life gives you tangerines.
This year was a disappointment for K-dramas.
