Since then, almost everyone has some memories of Korean dramas, whether they are fans of Korean dramas or not. Because even if you don't like watching it, you must have heard it a few times when your grandmother chased the drama.
After the new millennium, a large wave of Korean waves flooded into the China market, such as Blue Life and Death Field, Project Runway, Miss Mermaid, Winter Love Song, Stairs to Heaven, My Girl, and My Name is Saint Jin Shun. They earned enough tears from the audience with several stalks, such as car accidents, cancer, amnesia, and lovers becoming brothers and sisters.
With the popularity of the play, many beautiful heroines in the play have naturally become the objects sought after by everyone.
Now, it has been 20 years since those explosive Korean dramas. Is the value of the first generation of Korean divines still there? Let's take a look.
I. Cui Zhiyou (46 years old)
200 1 Up to now, Cui Zhiyou has exploded three love dramas, namely "Beautiful Days", "Winter Love Song" and "Stairs to Heaven".
These three dramas not only made her a local first-line actress in South Korea, but also gained super popularity throughout Asia. It is no exaggeration to say that she is the originator of Korean Wave, and is the enlightenment to Korean dramas by many China audiences after 1980s and 1990s.
Cui Zhiyou's appearance is not amazing, but she is gentle and charming and has a special affinity.
She studied dance in her early years, and her height 174cm is quite outstanding. In South Korea, where the whole people are keen on "changing their heads", she is a natural beauty, with natural facial lines and a bit of intellectuality in silence. It is precisely because of her sister-like face next door that her sadomasochism plays always make people move.
When she appeared in these explosive dramas, she was in her twenties and her acting skills were already very skilled. In particular, crying has a strong sense of substitution, and with her natural melancholy temperament, each role is impressive.
To be sure, South Korea does have a way of making love dramas. Even if those bloody plots are repeatedly concocted, they can always attract the audience.
In addition, the modeling in these plays is also very classic, such as the modeling of Cui Zhiyou in Winter Love Song, which seems to be out of date today.
During this period, Cui Zhiyou's career in South Korea also gradually declined. Since 2003, she has only published a work for several years, and she has not published a work for four or five years now.
As for her appearance, she is often in the voice of "plastic surgery". Many viewers found that her face became stiff in recent years and her nose was a little different from before.
With her face value and her marriage.
In 20 18, 43-year-old Cui Zhiyou announced his marriage to an outsider who was 9 years younger than him. It should have been a blessing, but soon the media broke the news that her husband was a cowherd in his early years, and his love cycle and name were all fake. They were all packaged by Cui Zhiyou, and even the company where she served as president was founded by Cui Zhiyou.
However, these negative reports did not shake their love. In May 2020, 45-year-old Cui Zhiyou gave birth to a daughter for her husband.
In June of this year, her husband cheated again, and she still chose cold treatment.
I don't know if I was disturbed by these negative news. Cui Zhiyou lost a lot of weight when she came back nine months after delivery this year.
Second, Seo-hee Jang (49 years old)
When Miss Mermaid was broadcast on CCTV in 2004, many viewers had a question: How many episodes are there in this drama? Why can't it go on live?
Later, I learned that the original version had 247 episodes, and CCTV changed it to 164 episodes after 45 minutes.
This story makes people cry. The woman's father was robbed by the mother of her second daughter. The woman robbed her second daughter's boyfriend in retaliation and successfully married him to complete the revenge.
There is no love at first sight, no memory loss in a car accident, no terminal illness, and the story logic between many protagonists is clear, and the feeder lines are also brilliant. After the film was broadcast in South Korea, the response was unprecedented, and the heroine Seo-hee Jang won the prize. After the introduction of CCTV, it also set off a viewing frenzy in the mainland.
However, after many years, many masters have different fates. Jin Shengmin, the actor of 20 16 Wang Zhu, committed suicide, and Mi-seon Jeon, the actor of 20 19 heroine Mei Sheng, committed suicide, and the heroine Seo-hee Jang gradually faded out of the audience's sight.
Child star Seo-hee Jang, who won the "Beautiful Children Trial" at the age of ten, began to shoot advertisements. 18 years old, officially became a professional actress, but she didn't play the heroine until miss mermaid.
Miss mermaid was a hit in China, and in 2006, it went to China to shoot The Boxer. However, during the filming process, she was exposed to a big name, got a slight cold and had to go back to South Korea for treatment. She left the crew for 33 days and lost nearly 3 million.
This cooperation made her reputation plummet, and then she continued to return to China for development. In 2008, the temptation to go home made her reach the peak of her career again.
20 12 came to China to shoot Master Lin in Seoul, Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties, Heroes of the Gods, etc. In 20 15 years, film and television drama shooting gradually decreased.
Seo-hee Jang, for example, is almost fifty this year, and he is still alone. It is said that she has signed a new company and is going to start again at the age of fifty.
Third, Anglenala (40 years old)
In 200 1 year, Anglenala made her debut as a singer for the first time. The following year, she quickly became famous with two plays, Success of a Smart Girl and Love of a Red Bean Girl.
Two years later, Anglenala extended his tentacles to the China market, starred with Alec Su in Princess Diao Man, and performed countless pure and lovely Situ Jing.
By this time, it can be said that her career has developed very smoothly. At the age of 24, she has not only become a popular actress in her own country, but also a full-fledged actress in China.
In 2007, she became an ambassador for cultural exchange between China and South Korea. In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, she was one of the torchbearers. She is the only foreign singer who sings Welcome to Beijing.
At that time, she was really honored.
However, a year later, she became a "pain in the ass" because when she returned to China to participate in a variety show, she said that she would "go to China if she had no money".
Actually, this show is a little suspicious of her. At that time, her father lost a lot of money making movies. When asked in time, she said, "I will go to China, and then I will go to China if invited."
Subtitle Jun called her: Every time the production cost is tight, she will go to China to perform!
Although the meaning is not much different, the emotion is completely different. After this video was fermented in China, her image suddenly fell to the bottom. No matter how she apologizes, mainland audiences can't accept being treated as leeks.
After that, she returned to Korea to develop, and she was also brilliant in the field of TV dramas.
However, outside her career, her personal problems have not been solved. At the age of 40, she once admitted on the show that she had the trouble of her father urging marriage.
However, she is well maintained, and she can't be seen as a 40-year-old middle-aged person. She still has a strong sense of girlhood.
Fourth, Song Huijing (40 years old)
Song Hye Kyo Jing/Kloc-debuted at the age of 0/5, and 19 became popular with Love in Blue.
Many people have one or more idol dramas of Qiao Mei in their childhood, such as Love Hotel, Romantic Room, and even Descendants of the Sun in recent years.
Song Hye Kyo has a long flowering period and has been on the road of idol drama for decades. After talking about sister-in-law love, she can even play soap operas with various love themes in her thirties.
Her national goodwill is very high, and hundreds of Korean stars have publicly stated that Song Hye Kyo Jing is an ideal model. There are also some male stars in China, including Murphy, Ryan, Yang Yang, Du Chun, Han Geng and Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift, who expressed their appreciation for Beijing in Song Hye Kyo in programs or interviews.
And her love history is quite rich. She had sex with Lee Byunghun, who was 12 years older than her, with Lin Xuan in the world they lived in, and with Song Joong Ki in Descendants of the Sun in 20 16, and got married in an instant.
However, when an actress has feelings for her partner, it is easy to tell whether she loves the man himself or the person who loves his role. When dreams illuminate reality, feelings may hit the rocks. Song Hye Kyo, Beijing and Song Joong Ki also experienced flash marriage after two years.
Now 40-year-old Song Hye Kyo Jing is single again, and there are more possibilities in the future.
Not long ago, her new book "Now, Break Up" was released, and the ratings were good. Judging from her state in the play, she can play idol drama for a few more years.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) Li Duohai (37 years old)
In 2005, "My Girl" was broadcast, also known as "Brother and Sister Appointment". At first, the response was mediocre. With the development of the plot, it is like a dark horse, occupying the top spot in three TV series at the same time. Later, Hunan Satellite TV introduced broadcasting, which also set a good audience rating and reputation.
Playing Zhou, with a bright smile, makes people feel happy. Her crooked ponytail once set the trend.
200 1, 17-year-old Li Duohai won the "Miss Chunxiang" beauty pageant in one fell swoop, and then successfully entered the entertainment circle.
Before that, she attended high school in Australia and then moved to the United States, where she had many years of overseas study experience. During this period, she studied ballet and traditional Korean dance. Her height 1.7 meters, temperament and demeanor are excellent.
But comparing the photos of her beauty pageant with those of my girl, my girl has been adjusted.
Plastic surgery is very addictive. In the following ten years, she didn't publish many works, but news about her great appearance often appeared on hot search.
For example, when "The Legend of the Good Witch" was broadcast in 2065438+2008, the audience was shocked. I couldn't believe it was still that week.
It's hard to repair a happy face with an audience. It's embarrassing to be a face full of women's hearts.
In the past two years, she has settled in an audio platform and generously basked in daily life. The figure is still very good, but if you look at your face, you won't recognize it as "my girl" without indicating your name.
In September this year, she dressed as Zhou again 16 years later, with familiar music, the same name and completely different faces.
There was a war of words at the bottom of her comments. Some netizens said, "You can't say exactly the same, just two unrelated people." Some netizens said, "I can't recognize Li Duohai without remembering my name now." Some netizens lamented that "a girl who used to be more aura is now …".
Six, Li Yingai (50 years old)
In 2003, the Korean drama Dae Jang Geum won the highest honor award of MBC acting award for Li Yingai, and gained a high popularity in China.
At that time, the theme song of Dae Jang Geum was sung all over the street, including Call, Hope, Mandarin version and Cantonese version. ...
Li Yingai is a rare natural beauty in North Korea. She was beautiful since she was a child and was praised as "oxygen beauty" by Korean media.
She/kloc-started modeling at the age of 0/5, but at the same time, she put one foot in the entertainment circle and did not delay her studies. She studied German at Hanyang University, a very famous local university, and didn't officially start shooting until after graduation.
In just a few years, she and Dae Jang Geum became household names. But when her career was in full swing, she chose to get married and then go back to school to study for a doctorate.
Therefore, in performing arts, her works are not many.
20 1 1 and 20 15, respectively, she gave birth to a pair of children and completed the upgrade of her life. She is 50 years old this year. She is well maintained. She looks intellectual and elegant, wrinkled, but real and natural, without a trace of medical beauty.
On June+10, 5438, her new play "With Jing Yi" was broadcast, which was her masterpiece after she despised the screen for a long time, and the response was not bad.
Seven, Gianna Jun (40 years old)
173.5cm tall, beautiful and free from vulgarity, Gianna Jun was found to be a model when she was a freshman. The next year, she began to shoot TV series and be a program host.
In 200 1 year, the romantic comedy "My Barbarian Girlfriend" became popular, and Gianna Jun became the top goddess in Korea, and was also recognized as a beauty in Asia.
20 13, Gianna Jun, who once again appeared in the idol drama after many years, achieved great success with You from the Stars. The play was all the rage, and A Thousand Songs also caused quite a stir in China.
20 16, The Legend of the Blue Sea starring Lee MinHo, who is six years younger, is also a very valuable idol drama.
Her career is developing smoothly and she can get along with her love. In 20 12, she held a grand wedding with her husband Cui Junhe and gave birth to two sons.
Cui Junhe and Gianna Jun have known each other since childhood. He is the grandson of Hanbok designer Li Yingxi and the son of fashion designer Li Zhenyu. He is also a financial talent, worth over 100 million yuan.
Gianna Jun's life is like dying, and the years are especially gentle to her. Now at the age of 40, her gas field is fully open and her face has not changed.
Eight, Kim Hee Seon (44 years old)
Korean actresses generally debut earlier. Song Like Hui Jing, Li Duohai and Gianna Jun, Kim Hee Seon entered this industry in his teens. /kloc-started advertising at the age of 0/6, and then starred in TV series. Most mainland audiences know about Jackie Chan because of her "Myth". The scene of her dancing on the cliff is simply amazing.
That year, she was 28 years old, and many media called her "the first beauty in Korea".
Korean beauty always avoids many things related to cosmetic surgery. As the first actress to become famous abroad, Kim Hee Seon can't get around this hurdle. She is frequently reported as "the first person in plastic surgery" and "the first beauty in man-made".
According to her interview, when filming "Myth", even Jackie Chan thought she was an artificial beauty and didn't dare to get close to her face when she slapped. But she said her face really didn't move.
Later, when my daughter was born, her face value as a child was not satisfactory. Rumors of cosmetic surgery are prevalent again.
But in fact, it can be seen from the commercials taken when she 16 debuted that she should not have moved much.
She didn't even have an awkward period, from childhood to adulthood.
However, she is old and does not rule out medical beauty. In recent years, whether it is a selfie or a photo of attending an event, there are often photos with stiff and unnatural faces.
It is not difficult to see from the above Korean actresses that the contrast is very obvious when they have not had a full face. Like Li Yingai, his face is expressionless and wrinkled when he is old, and he doesn't hide his elegant temperament, while Li Duohai has been tossing his face since he was in his twenties. Now he obviously doesn't talk about silicone, which is completely different from when he first debuted.
As Lemon once said in the program, when you suddenly change your face after accumulating a certain popularity, it means starting all over again. This is undoubtedly unfavorable to the actor's acting career.
Although everyone loves beauty, it is better to grow old with a sense of superiority and calmness than to become a "gegewu".
