2014 Editors’ Picks [Year in Review, Part 6]
BEST ACTRESS
Jeon Ji-hyun, You From Another Star
javabeans: Sometimes an actor has the good fortune to come across a character so well-conceived that it would have propelled anybody to success; those actors owe Fate a debt of gratitude for gifting them with the draw. And at other times, it’s the actor who brings her own magic to a role and creates her own success, as Jeon Ji-hyun did in You From Another Star, taking generally likable parts and fashioning them into a sparkling, one-of-a-kind character who became an instant icon. Jeon’s natural charisma was an asset, certainly, but it took more than mere charm to give our boldly brash, cheeky heroine her winning combination of hilariously skewed hauteur and earnest sweetness. Jeon could turn her emotions around on a dime, traversing a wide swath of comedic and dramatic terrain in a flash, drawing us into the immediacy of the moment. Sure, Do Manager came from outer space, but it was Jeon Ji-hyun who sucked us into her orbit.
BEST CHARACTER
Chun Song-yi, You From Another Star
dramallama: In a year of lovable office grunts, mathematical liars, and a sea of noble idiots, one character stuck out like a pair of glittery heels. Coming back to television after fourteen years, Jeon Ji-hyun hit another career peak by eliciting envy from a whole ‘nother generation of drama watchers in her creation of the fabulous, shameless, yet poignant Chun Song-yi. Her character was so well-branded that the real world reflected her virtual fame and googling “Chun Song-yi” meant inseparable related searches about her makeup, style, and lipstick. But behind the “effortless” beauty, brazen attitude, hilarious frivolity, and egotistical façade were heartbreaking vulnerabilities in her longing for acceptance and an escape from isolation. She was a wonderful combination of outlandish humor and heart, and best of all, she embodied the phrase “don’t hate me because I’m beautiful” with a strut, a pop of lip color, and one simple word: sawry (not sawry).
BEST ROMANCE
You From Another Star, Kim Soo-hyun & Jeon Ji-hyun
purplecow: With the undeniable chemistry between Jeon Ji-hyun and Kim Soo-hyun in The Thieves (they only kissed once, but man was it steamy!), everyone had high hopes for their reunion in You From Another Star—and our leads didn’t disappoint. She was a fascinating character in her own right, at once wonderfully crass and refreshingly open, but put her in a room with the jaded professor-manager-alien and magic happened. They were the perfect match; if he wasn’t saving her life or offering her a shoulder to cry on, she was busy thawing his heart or poking holes in his crusty exterior. Their love transcended centuries, galaxies, a psychotic chaebol with crazy eyes, and—most horrifying of all—disease-causing kisses.
