Conversations in an online community have brought attention to the varying views of Korean actors from audiences worldwide regarding the acting performances of Nam Joohyk and Cha Eunwoo.
A user on Instiz raised doubts about how international viewers can judge the acting skills of Korean actors by pointing out Nam Joohyuk's rising acclaim as a skilled actor compared to Cha Eunwoo, who is often seen as less proficient in acting roles.
This led to a discussion among users with different viewpoints on this topic.
"I recognize Nam Joo Hyuk as an actor in his performances; however, I view Cha Eun Woo as an actor who struggles in the acting department." What sets them apart?"
One observer mentioned that in Korea, Nam Joohyk does not have a reputation as a "bad actor." Another individual highlighted that language differences could influence how non-natives judge their acting skills.
"But hasn't Nam Joohyuk's performance significantly improved?" inquired a user, mentioning his role in the series The Light, in Your Eyes.
Some individuals noted that international viewers tend to pay attention to facial cues and hand movements rather than verbal presentation when evaluating performance quality in acting roles.
"Foreign viewers value expressions more, than vocal delivery " one participant mentioned as a critical observation.

On the other side of the debate were individuals who highlighted the importance of nuances in acting, such as voice modulation and articulation, when assessing an actor's skills."If someones voice or pronunciation isn't on point " as one person put it, " we tend to be strict, in our judgment of their acting prowess."
The discussion also veered into sharing stories about interactions with movie sectors, where some mentioned the difficulty of accurately evaluating the capabilities of actors from different countries.
One participant amusingly shared how they admired Kristen Stewarts' performance as Bella in Twilight despite being widely criticized.The ongoing conversations on the internet fuel debates on how cultural variations in entertainment consumption and the impact of language and context affect how audiences perceive acting abilities.
Here are some netizens' comments:
It may feel that way because of the language difference, but didn't Nam Joo-hyuk's acting get a lot better?
Cha Eun-woo is not a good actor. I really wanted to watch the drama because I enjoyed the webtoons Gangnam Beauty and Today's Lovely, but I couldn't watch it because it's really hard.
Foreigners say that Blackpink's J.S. acting is really good.. But isn't Nam Joo Hyuk's acting also good??? His acting was really good in The Light in Your Eyes
Overseas fans unconditionally praised him
Nam Joo-hyuk's acting isn't that good, is it?
I felt like the difference in direction was bigger than the difference in how well I did. I felt like it was really big yesterday.
Seriously, Nam Joo-hyuk's acting has never been talked about since his debut, so I don't know what the fuss is about... In the past few years, all his works have been well-received or are passable, so that's good, but do directors only accept Nam Joo-hyuk?
Nam Joo-hyuk is really good at things like Cheon-in, but when you look at him as Baek Yi-jin, he's not that good, but he's not bad.
