Idols who venture into acting face great criticism because of the stigma that they can't act. Many are trying to change this perception, and SISTAR's Dasom is one of them; however, it seems that she herself is disappointed in her output.
Dasom headlined the recently concluded KBS daily drama "Love Rides The Song" (also known as "Melody of Love"), but despite the time she spent as an actress, she admitted to be lacking in the acting department.
Starnews revealed an interview of the idol-actress on the 11th, and she shared, "My acting lacks a lot of things."
"When I began filming the drama, people had high expectations of me as an idol-actress, and it was burdening. Looking back, I don't think I managed to change the perceptions of idol-actors because of my acting."
In addition, she said, "While watching 'Love Rides The Song', there wasn't a moment where I was satisfied with how I acted. I was always thinking, 'I could do better, but it's a shame I couldn't. Ultimately, I was always filled with regret."
She continued, "I like acting, and I did it because I enjoyed doing it. I don't know what the viewers think of how I acted, but regardless of their opinion, I just hope that they acknowledge that I did my best."
"Love Rides The Song" is about the aspiring musician Gong Deul Im (Dasom), and her quest to perform on stage one day.
