Lee Ji Ah and Han Hye Jin just made their small screen return with "Pandora: Beneath the Paradise" and "Divorce Attorney Shin." While viewers praise their acting in their respective dramas, some remain unsatisfied by their performances, while others even compare them to the previous actresses who concluded their dramas with high ratings.
Is It True? Lee Ji Ah & Han Hye Jin Fail to Impress Viewers With Their Acting
Jeon Do Yeon and Lee Bo Young, who played as leads in tvN's "Crash Course in Romance" and JTBC's "Agency," exhibited outstanding presence with their amazing acting skills. The veteran stars made successful dramas before passing the thrones to Lee Ji Ah and Han Hye Jin.
However, high expectations somehow ended up in disappointment.
In particular, Lee Ji Ah and Han Hye Jin are currently leading their respective weekend dramas "Pandora: Beneath the Paradise" and "Divorce Attorney Shin." Despite being the leads, they are being criticized for their dull performances.
Lee Ji Ah's Acting in 'Pandora: Beneath the Paradise' Called 'Dull' by Viewers
"Pandora: Beneath the Paradise" features the story of Hong Tae Ra, a woman living a life that everyone envies. After recovering her memories from the tragic accident, she seeks revenge on the people who control her life.
During its pilot week, the revenge series received favorable feedback from the audience as it was a new project of "The Penthouse" writer Kim Soon Ok.
Adding to the viewers' excitement is the fact that Lee Ji Ah, who played an important role in "The Penthouse," will headline the drama, making the two reunite.

It has been said that since Lee Ji Ah's new role is the perfect killer, she prepared by focusing on her physical fitness to put her energy into heavy action stunts.
However, people noticed her inaccurate pronunciation and unstable tone, which affected the viewers' immersion. Despite the strong character she portrays, Lee Ji Ah's performance is not that strong and inconsistent.
Han Hye Jin Fails to Convey Her Character's Emotions
According to a report, Han Hye Jin has stiff expressions and an unsuitable tone of acting that does not fit with the flow of the series "Divorce Attorney Shin." Some point out that the actress' unsatisfactory performance hinders the people's immersion in the story.
She plays Lee Seo Jin, a radio DJ, whose image is ruined by domestic violence from her husband. Despite portraying a challenging role, the actress fails to convey the character's emotional scars.
Others say that it maybe because of Han Hye Jin's voice tone and monotonous facial expressions, which fails to blend in with the story.
Both dramas have progressed, but viewers are still looking forward to Lee Ji Ah and Han Hye Jin's improved acting.
