I see a lot of great and freaking good actresses sidelined for no good reason in K-drama world. So I wonder, how come Shin se-kyung still gets good roles that she obviously can’t pull out?

    because she is pretty.. and that holds true for all the non talented guys and gals who keep getting these dramas..

    She is preferred as the one perfect to be the FL in SK sageuks. I guess it’s both her visual and the vibe she gives off. She has that beautiful but a bit detached vibe to her which might be seemed desirable for the FL in sageuks.

      I haven’t watched many of her dramas, but there might be some truth to your opinion because she was good in “Deep Rooted Tree”. I also liked her in “Run On”.

        Actually, her character was the only character I couldn’t really connect to while watching 6 Flying Dragons.

          100% of my knowledge of Shin Se-kyung is the 20 minutes of Captivating the King I watched last night, and I was Not Impressed. It was the gender-reveal/bedroom scene, where you would think actors would give it their all. Jo Jung-suk is amazing (of course he is) and she’s mostly kind of blank. “Reserved” would be a kind way of describing it.
