Dohee, Suzy, and IU all debuted as singers, have a cute image, and are even similar in age. Last year Dohee appeared in cable channel tvN's popular drama "Respond 1994" as the character of Jo Yoon Jin, who has the mouth of a sailor. She left a strong impression on the viewers with this role. Suzy created her "first love icon" through her appearance in the movie Architecture 101, then went on to become "another sensation" with her role in MBC drama "Gu Family Book." IU was nicknamed "Korea's little sister" while she was still just a singer, and she went on to star in KBS2 drama "You're the Best, Lee Soon Shin" and "Pretty Man," in which her acting skills were acknowledged.
Before, the public used to turn away from singers that turned to acting. That's because they knew that singers often tried to carry their popularity over to dramas as they made the transition. However, these 3 girls are making up an 'integrated image' on TV and on the big screen.
Let's analyze their charms to see why we should keep an eye on them in 2014.
Dohee - Colorful Charm Hidden Behind Her Thick Accent
Dohee debuted with the 'tiny giant' girl group Tiny G on August 13, 2012. At the time of their debut, the girls were noted for being the shortest new idols. However, they didn't receive the recognition they deserved for their talent, and the fans' interests faded. Just when the public was forgetting about the group, Dohee debuted as an actress with her role in "Respond 1994" in 2013.
Even though it was Dohee's first attempt at acting, she naturally absorbed the role of Jo Yoon Chin, a Seo Taiji groupie character with a thick Korean dialect accent. If we take a close look at "Respond 1994," we can see that although Jo Yoon Jin curses a lot, she is a deep, attentive, and warm girl. Jo Yoon Jin has her first taste of love with a boy she met in college, and even waits it out through her boyfriend's military service, which is a time that is rumored to have the highest breakup rate. She eventually marries him when he gets out.
Dohee amazed the public because "Respond 1994" recorded 10% viewership, despite being a cable channel drama. She's received 60 offers for CF, 100 interviews, and is being flooded with love calls from entertainment shows and movies.
While it's true that she left a great impression with her first drama appearance, Dohee's charm doesn't end there. In a recent photo shoot, Dohee revealed her cute charm, sexiness, and even innocence. How else will she surprise the public with her various charms?
IU - Talented Singer, Talented Actress
IU has succeeded with her outstanding acting and exceptional singing. She was dubbed as the 'uncle fan's vitamin.' She first attempted acting in 2011 on KBS2's "Dream High" as Kim Pil Sook, a character who had no confidence in her appearance. Although she didn't have a very big role, she was able to show off the character's lovely charm 100%, and was acknowledged as a budding actress.
After that, IU landed a role in KBS1 drama "You're the Best, Lee Soon Shin," where she showcased a lovely romance. The August 25th broadcast last year recorded an amazing 30.1% viewership rating (according to Nielson Korea). IU had the lead role of Lee Soon Shin, a character who stopped at nothing to achieve her dreams.
Her latest work was KBS2's "Pretty Man," which came to an end on January 9th. She took on the role of Kim Bo Tong, a fairly 'normal' girl. The drama's viewership ratings were low, but IU was still able to show off her own charm in the drama. She accurately portrayed Kim Bo Tong's single-minded love and used this unique charm to her advantage.
As she enters adulthood, she is shedding her token cute image and approaching the public as a matured actress.
Suzy - A Star on TV and on the Big Screen
Suzy earned the title of Korea's first love with her role in Architecture 101. She played the part of Seoyeon, a bright and outgoing girl, and captured the hearts of many a male fan. Suzy's innocent looks, ditzy personality, and easygoing charm are more than enough to understand why she is Korea's 'first love.' Her 2012 movie 0000 had a cumulative attendance record of 4,110,645 people. She truly is a singer turned actress that succeeded as an actress, even in the movie industry. But it doesn't end with just movies. Suzy starred in MBC drama "Gu Family Book" and showed off martial arts skills, too.
And so Dohee, IU, and Suzy started out as singers but proved themselves to be great actresses, too. Dohee's been added on last to the two "Korea's younger sisters," IU and Suzy. We can't wait to see what these 3 younger sisters will star in for 2014.
