Wonder Girls' Yoobin's Acting Criticized by Netizens

Since Wonder Girls leader SunYe was married on January 26th and announced she would be taking a break to adjust to married life, the other members were going to focus on individual activities in her absence. Ye Eun is currently in The Three Musketeers musical as Constance while Lim is hosting a educational radio show that teaches it's audience English called 'English Go Go'. TBH I'm not even sure what Sohee is even up to at this moment. 

Yoobin's acting debut is in the drama "The Virus" which airs on OCN, she plays Lee Joo Young, a computer hacker who is a part of a special task force that takes down contagious viruses. The show began airing on March 1 and netizens had much to say about it.

1. [+124, -49] What has become of the rest of the members all because of Sunye. Just so they can put some food on the table, they're forced to stick their fingers into this and that. Yeah, I know that everyone is saying that we all congratulated Sunye's marriage but it's not like we were going to cause a huge fuss even when we knew what the consequences would be since it's her decision

2. [+113, -47] Please stop stealing the opportunities of other actors... If you're an idol, go practice your singing...

3. [+88, -28] I actually like Yoobin but the minute Yoobin said her first line in The Virus, a sigh escaped my lips automatically...

4. [+35, -14] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ What is going on, all because of Sunye... Sunye basically kicked away the bowl of food of the other members so now they're forced to run around begging to for food. Yoobin, don't act again ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+16, -4] She was so unstable the entire time I was watching... Because of her, the rest of the cast looked like they were extra extra better at acting. 

6. [+15, -5] What exactly is Yoobin good at? I'm curious now to see if her acting's any good because her singing and rap are all crap. 

  

After an article was published that praised her acting debut, netizens really weren't satisfied.

1. [+49, -18] Journalist, do you really consider it a passing grade?

2. [+49, -19] I didn't know what to do with my hands the minute she said her first line.......

3. [+47, -20] Looks like she stuck a stick in her nose

4. [+16, -6] Idols, please stop acting

5. [+14, -5] And who exactly gave her this passing grade?

6. [+11, -5] She was a bit awkward but it was worth watching. Her awkward pronunciation, though... I don't have any opinion on Yoobin but her acting made me question why they would use her instead of a rookie actress. Is it to export the drama?

Besides Yoobin's acting, netizens also began looking at the group as a whole and their activities since SunYe's wedding and the comments aren't pretty. If you're a Wonderful, brace yourself for some of these opinions. 

1. [+553, -30] How do they expect actors to put food on the table anymore

2. [+464, -27] I feel so bad for them... If only they had saved some money in the mean time.. Seems they've crashed all their money and popularity into America

3. [+429, -16] It's a bit late for them to be starting just now... If only Park Jin Young hadn't been so greedy with America

4. [+403, -21] I can see this being better for their fans. Thanks to Sunye's marriage, they can be in Korea more, whereas before, all of them were away in America. 

5. [+375, -15] Poor Hyelim ㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+310, -27] So easy for them to switch careers into acting ㅋ Sad for the rookie actors

7. [+243, -21] They are basically stepping all over the people who have been dreaming of one day becoming an actor while playing supporting roles all their careers... How is this any different from a corporate chain coming in and pushing out a local bakery?

8. [+244, -37] They're starting off with OCN so it's not too bad compared to other idols. At least the JYP kids never caused a nuisance to anyone yet. 

9. [+151, -2] Such an easy life for an idol ㅋㅋ Actors can barely make supporting roles after 10 years in the industry but idols just snatch up the leads ㅋㅋ

10. [+152, -33] This article reads like we're being updated on the whereabouts of a group after their disbandment


  Do you agree with netizens about her acting or just about idol actors in general? Also what do you think about what they said about Wonder Girls?
