Let’s travel back in time to 2007. A friend recommends that I watch Tree of Heaven; a melodrama starring Park Shin-hye and Lee Wan that had come out one year prior. I give it a shot, and I’m thrust into the all-consuming rabbit hole of Korean dramas. I fell hard, guys. To the point where my body no longer recognized the concept of sleep.
Since then, Park Shin-hye’s held a special place in my heart and I’ve watched her become one of the most popular leading ladies in the Korean entertainment industry. She’s done everything from hilarious comedic dramas like You’re Beautiful to whimsical fantasies like Pinocchio and medical procedurals like Doctors. She’s a talented actress, and fans often joke about how she can cry at the drop of a hat. With the release of her new drama Sisyphus: the Myth (which we are doing a live recap of), it’s got me thinking of just how expansive her resume is. She’s been in a ton of dramas over the years, so which one is your favorite?

Wait a sec, Sisyphus isn’t on the list??? I vote Sisyphus!

I didn’t add it since it kinda just started airing. Should I?
Yes, because it is glorious! 😂
I only watched the first three on the list but I like Pinocchio the most. I am not saying her performance is not as good on the others but sometimes the drama itself can make a difference. I have watched quite a few medical Kdrama but I really didn’t like the Doctors that much.

That’s true. Bad scripts, bad directing…etc. can water down good acting. In the dramas I’ve seen PSY in, she’s pretty expressive though.
