1. [+364, -30] Not really looking forward to Song Hye Gyo's acting again

2. [+161, -30] Song Hye Gyo peaked in the 90s... ㅋㅋㅋ not good at acting, doesn't have a model private life... physique is whatever... I don't get why she's so popular???

3. [+47, -8] Kim Eun Sook's dramas are a hit or miss, and no one's watching dramas anymore purely for a famous cast

4. [+15, -0] Her acting feels too robotic for me. Every character she plays feels like the same character because she speaks in the same speedy, cold tone. Actors these days seem to have no problem transforming it up as needed, which really brings to light how bad Song Hye Gyo or Kim Tae Hee's skills are. And they're always trying to act so reserved in their interviews when some of Song Hye Gyo's best characters have been more outgoing roles like 'Full House' or 'Soonpoong Clinic'.

5. [+22, -8] Has she ever been known as an actress that many looked forward to? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+18, -5] With Song Hye Gyo as the lead, I already know what this drama's going to be like without even watching it..

7. [+12, -0] She's become unlikeable since her divorce with Song Joong Ki

8. [+12, -0] So boring~ her acting's always the same!!

9. [+13, -3] I know it's wrong to talk about age but there's an age for women that they look most beautiful at, and she keeps trying to stick to the same roles she played when she was younger which makes it harder to relate to her as the audience. It's the same for men but they have more leeway in terms of that age window. To the younger generation, Song Hye Gyo probably just looks like a really pretty ajumma who's taken care of herself well.

10. [+9, -1] I like Kim Eun Sook but Song Hye Gyo... her facial expressions, actions, and tonality are always the same!

11. [+7, -0] Song Hye Gyo is supposed to save Kdramas on Netflix? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

12. [+3, -0] Kim Eun Sook's dramas are so cringe. Song Hye Gyo's acting always feels like she's drunk off her own beauty.
