Favorite Fridays: Kim Soohyun

This is linked to the last Thursday Melody, where I talked about my all-time favorite drama ever. this is actually the reason why I watched the drama in the first place. If you red my previous post, you probably know who this is~

This week's favorite is~

Kim Soohyun


Let's take a moment to admire how gorgeous he is. 

So this week's favorite is obviously a person. A very, very, very fine person. He has recently shot up my bias lists in the past few days while I was rewatching The Moon Embracing the Sun, and I am simply obsessed with both him and the story. Although Taeyang is still my ultimate bias, he is definitely my no. 1 actor bias. 

Soohyun has starred in many of my absolute favorite dramas: Dream High, The Moon Embracing the Sun, and most recently, My Love From The Stars. He is the best actor I've seen in the television business in my opinion; not just because he is good looking. I really admire his ability to put so much emotion into his acting and the way he makes the character he's playing come to life. I loved him the most as Lee Hwon. 


Kim Soohyun as Lee Hwon

Guys who play good historical characters have ability. Usually, when people make historical dramas, the King tends to be an older man. However, as King, I found Soohyun's skills highlighted through his acting. His voice, deep and rich, is so admirable and charismatic. Hwon is one of my most-loved leads in all the dramas I have watched, and I have watched countless dramas. 

Whilst watching and rewatching The Moon Embracing the Sun, I reached out countless times to his character. I felt so sorry for him and the tragedy he lives in. Even as King, he is lonely and happiness is hard to come by. He wants to stick to his principles, but is confused and running out of time. I cried for him and what happened to him so many times. Soohyun conveyed the emotions so well, it was like I was in the Joseon Era and everything was real. You could see Hwon in him, in his eyes, in his speech, in his aura. What especially touched me was his tears. Hwon was not afraid to cry, and the tears followed by the strong soundtracks hit hard and makes you cry all the more harder. I felt at a loss for him, I felt all the emotions, and I completely sympathized. The world was not easy to the King, and I admired the strength of the character to be able to hold up all these hardships and to have the ability to make somewhat clear-headed decisions. It hurt so much to watch him cry in vain; it was so heartbreaking and I feel like I spent the entirety of the drama watching through piles of tissues. 

Aside from acting ability, Soohyun is also incredibly beautiful for a man. Must I even need to explain? To all the people who are stereotypical over K-Pop and Koreans, no he did not have plastic surgery. He is one hundred percent natural and one hundred percent gorgeous. God, I've never seen a hanbok look so good on a guy before. And did I mention his equally amazing body?
