In K-drama Land many of our favorite actors and actresses get paired up. Some are the perfect fit like Cinderella’s glass slipper, while others are the wrong size. Which of the pairings below would you deem the perfect size?

From top to bottom: Nam Joo-hyuk with Shin Se-kyung, Suzy, and Lee Sung-kyung
I’m going to have to agree with the meme and pick Nam Joo-hyuk and Lee Sung-kyung. Their chemistry in Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo was so real, they ended up dating for a little while.
Kim Soo-hyun with Jun Ji-hyun, IU, and Seo Yea-ji
This was a tough one since Kim Soo-hyun and Jun Ji-hyun were so believable in My Love From Another Star! But I’m going to have to agree with the meme again, and pick Seo Yea-ji as the perfect fit. Their chemistry in It’s Okay To Not Be Okay gave me goosebumps and made it one of my favorite dramas of all time.
Park Seo-joon with Go Ah-ra, Kim Ji-won, and Park Min-young
My favorite pairing actually isn’t on here! I loved Park Seo-joon with Hwang Jung-eum in She Was Pretty.
Hyun-bin with Ha Ji-won, Park Shin-hye, and Son Ye-jin
I mean…there’s a reason Hyun-bin and Son Ye-jin are dating in real life. Their chemistry in Crash Landing On You was palpable! I still think about it to this day. However, I will say he also had good chemistry with Ha Ji-won in Secret Garden.
Lee Jong-suk with Suzy, Shin Hye-sun, and Han Hyo-joo
Unfortunately, my pick isn’t included. I think he had great chemistry with Lee Bo-young in I Can Hear Your Voice despite the age difference. My #2 pick is Han Hyo-joo though. That handcuff kiss in W was swoon-worthy! (I’m also sad Lee Na-young from Romance Is A Bonus Book isn’t included. Lee Jong-suk said she was his ideal type, and I felt something genuine in their acting).
Cha Eun-woo with Shin Se-kyung, Im Soo-hyung, and Moon Ga-young
I haven’t seen many of his dramas, so I don’t have a strong opinion. I imagine many people would say he had good chemistry with his True Beauty co-star Moon Ga-young.
Song Joong-ki with Kim Ji-won, Jeon Yeo-been, and Song Hye-kyo
Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo made a beautiful couple in Descendants of the Sun, and in real life as well. But I personally thought he had the best chemistry with Moon Chae-won in The Innocent Man.
So, which pairing would you give Cinderella’s glass slipper to?
Personally, I think Park Seo-joon had the best chemistry with Ji Sung in Kill Me, Heal Me. And I don’t think I’m alone—they won best couple that year!
