Members from idol groups have been pretty actively recently, striking
out in the acting industry. But there’s something that’s inadvertently
holding them back. As a member of an idol group, their image has
already been acknowledged and recognized by the public, and thus you
feel that they somehow can’t shake off their idol tag and show their
acting ability to the fullest of their capability.


Kim Ki Bum had expressed during the filming scene of his new daily drama,
“Happy Events at Chunja’s”, “I hope that everyone won’t look at me as
Kim Ki Bum from Super Junior but rather as actor Kim Ki Bum.”


Im YoonA of Girls Generation expressed the same thoughts at the press
conference of her daily drama “You’re My Destiny”, “Whether it’s acting
or singing, I will do both of them well.” Her words echoing what Kim Ki
Bum said.

This has been a problem that members from idol groups find themselves
afflicted with. The media often does not regard idols as
actors/actresses but as members of idol groups taking acting as a
challenge. Thus even if you do gain immense popularity as an idol group
member, it inadvertently holds you back.
