My Favorite Korean Actresses
A list of my favorite Korean actresses. Note that the list doesn't mean that the top actresses are the best actresses for me. There is just something with the actress that I really like and will always somehow root for her to become successful. Nevertheless, all these actresses have very good acting skills for me or else they won't make this list. The ones at the bottom does not also mean I dislike them, its just that I like the ones above them. This list contains the same people on my most talented Korean actresses list, just ranked differently.
The first roles are the first roles I've seen the actor in, the representative role is the first character and drama that I think of when the actor is mentioned. There is only one representative role for each actor except Kim Yoo Jung and Kim So Hyun (have to put their Moon Embracing the Sun characters too since I will always see them as a quartet with Yeo Jin Goo and Lee Tae Ri ).
Their character names contain the link of videos where their characters in the drama is shown. The drama names are the mydramalist pages of the drama.
*Disclaimer: This is just my opinion. This list doesn't mean it's real. This is only real for me
