Why Park Min-young only does dramas, not movies…jpg
The discussion took off as commenters contrasted Park Min-young’s leading drama roles with the pay and treatment offered by Korean films.




















Come to think of it, I really have never seen Park Min-young in a movie.

The movie industry is a trashy sausage fest, so I get what she means. She’s already established in dramas, so why bother getting involved in that?
Park Min-young became popular through rom-coms, but romance and human-interest movies are basically dead, and most people think those genres aren’t worth paying to see. Most movies end up having to be action or something… Unless she personally wants to try something different, I don’t think she needs to challenge herself with movies. People say her roles all feel similar and there’s been controversy, but Marry My Husband was still a hit, so romance clearly still works for her.
The movie industry won’t even let male actors in unless they’re part of the club, so female actors obviously have it even worse. There are so damn many female characters treated like disposable props… Now that K-dramas have more prestige, it’s funny watching the film crowd shamelessly slide over into dramas.
