Quantcast

8. My Journey to You - Zhang Ling He in costume just hits different yo

9. Nokdu Flower - Han Ye-ri. Just looks better in costumes with old-fashioned hairstyles

10. Emress Ki -  Ha Ji Won. Feel like she fits beauty standards of sageuks


And now


10 titles in which a leading in your opinion better fits for modern titles than historical ones 

1. Bo-ra! Deborah -  Yoo In-na looks funny in wigs imho, she nails modern looks tho and red/brown hair

2. Hwarang (Park Seo Joon just seems out of place among all the male characters. It's especially obvious with this drama since everyone else looks good.)

3. Love O2O - Yang Yang has unparallel beauty, but he looks more handsome in short hair imo. It's sad that historical drama in general has more viewers and less expectation (in terms of plot), and he always choose the popular IP/trending plot (for example e-sport, he had 3 gamer roles iirc).

4. Unforgettable Love - Wei Zhe Ming is super cute, with his round eyes and soft facial features. He looks great in historical drama too (I just hate that hat he wore and minimum make up in Tang dynasty drama-so realistic though). But when he's wearing suits, he ate. And that gold rimmed glasses, it's the perfection.

5. Lost Track of Time - xing fei with her small features more fit for modern drama

6. The Blessed Girl - Lin Yi. Don't give him costumes drama anymore... It just not suit him... 

7. Twenty-Five Twenty-One - Kim Tae Ri. She nails all her roles in sageuks, she's great at acting. But I don't think those eras hairstyle are flattering for her. She looks better when her hair down, like in 25/21 or Revenant. 

And as much as I like her in Mr. Sunshine, The Handmaiden, Jeongnyeon, I feel like another FL is prettier... 

8. The Last Immortal - Wang An Yu. He is definitely double handsome in modern clothing/ modern dramas. When I watched that drama, even though he is a good actor, he looks unfit and out of place among others.

9. Blossoms in Adversity- Hu Yitian. His expressions and posture fit much better with modern dramas.

10. Handsome Siblings- Chen Zheyuan. He also suits much better with modern dramas.
