Shin hye sun and Kim ji won are the most talented actresses I have ever seen they can portrait any characters

[julietgalinato]

For me shin hye sun all her moovies, , , , not one disappointed me when it comes for her acting.

[isabelcode.hello]

Park Eun Bin and Kim Go Eun are just brilliant. They don't need introduction. 😍

After FFMW, i am able to watch all Kim Ji Won dramas, and I got hooked. I love how she played the characters…from being naughty, spolied, lonely. I like her way of showing her emotions best on her eyes❤

[Kissyface]

Son Ye Jin should at least be in the top five. She has won 51 awards, 23 for Best Actress, Prime Minister's Commendation, 3 Grand Bell Awards, 6 Baeksang Arts Awards, 5 Blue Dragon Film Awards, 2 Korean Association of Film Critics Awards, 1 Asia Pacific Film Festival, she won the Grand Slam at the age of 25 and Now the BiFan Awards! ❤❤❤

People can't read or listen because the narrator said the actresses are not being ranked just listed randomly.

[thanaaabdullah]

Seo Ye Ji deserves to be higher than the number 12 spot

[BigdaddyGO]

Han Hyo-joo is d GOAT, was shocked when I watch Believer 2 and Moving was great too

[JDPanshel]

Think Son Ye Jin and Park Eun Bin are the most talented actresses in this list.

[tntnio]

Whoops, I forgot to add Han Hyo Joo, Kim Ji Won and Kim Go Eun too as amazing actresses too! Love them all and will always look out for their series or movies! ❤❤❤

[kazza]

Kim Ji Won, Seo yi Ji, Jun Ji Hyun, Kim Yoo Jung

[mgk]

The actress from " it' s ok not to be ok, " the actress of "something in the rain", the actress of " secret love affair" and " the whirlwind". The actress that plays moms and grannies usually are excellent.

[justanhuman]

What impressive about Kim Jiwon is her eye acting. Her eyes spoke so many emotions especially in Queen of Tears. Kudos to her! I hope she will pickup more challenging work that can show more of her talent and skills.

[alexakara]

SEO YE JI - 서예지 easily can walk in the best fashion shows

[BrooklynZad]

Thank you for featuring actresses with amazing range and true talent

[muz]

It's not hard for me to choose my favourite Korean actress. Unfortunately she's not on this list but Jung So-min is my favourite. Honourable mentions to IU and Shin min ah who are also talented and beautiful too

[RebJal]

I agree with Kim Ji Won placement on this list. Her role in Fight For My Way earns her the right to be first place. She has played, perhaps, the most challenging role for an actress ever. She was funny, emotional and endearing without being cheese or cringy. Not an easy task. Ask any actress what is more difficult to play a dramatic or a comedic role? In my opinion Shin Hye Sun deserves to be in the top 5 stops. Her range as an actress is quite amazing as well.
