    Why not? You get more freedom and higher pay. For Twice I don't think the latter applies but the freedom is def worth it.

    I'm honestly not even sure about the freedom part either. Assuming we're talking about creative freedom, yes, idols mostly just do whatever they're told, but at least in a senior group like Twice you have the opportunity to contribute to the songwriting and have at least some input on various other things, whereas these Kdrama actors just do whatever the script calls for. Outside of choosing which projects they sign onto -- which, in the case of idol actors, their companies might actually have a big say in as well -- they're basically just a cog in a machine.

    Idols have more freedom as actors cuz delulu fans don't care about them dating when they become actors cuz they get used to seeing them on screen with other people. That's what I meant by freedom. And of course the projects they choose at least in Twice's case. JYPE lets them choose their own songs now it's not farfetched to say that Twice will choose their acting projects too. That doesn't mean JYPE won't be there to advise them but they won't be making the decisions. They haven't been for a while now.


    There is nothing worthwhile the acting industry has to offer to Twice but you can't deny that actors are much more respected and have more time for themselves. It's also a mystery to me why idols choose acting as their second profession but as a Kdrama enjoyer, I am not complaining.

    Are you talking about idols who retire from music and just do acting? Because from what I've seen, actual idol actors have to abide by the same rules as regular ol' idols. They don't get any extra leeway from the public in how they present themselves and their private lives are scrutinized all the same. This is why JYPE would prevent them from taking on any roles with objectionable material, no matter how badly they wanted to do it. They have to protect their own investment still.


    Actors are obviously more respected in Korea, and don't work nearly as hard, so I can see the appeal if you're looking into an actual change of career, but adding acting on top of your duties as a busy idol just strikes me as a big yikes. I suppose they want to get their foot in the door ahead of time, so they won't have to establish their reputation post-idoldom, but you can't just pause what you've already got going in the meantime.


    I personally have zero interest in Korean film & TV, so I'd much prefer they just stick to focusing on music.

    But that's the thing, i don't think they are going to be as busy as they were last year from now on. They have done 1 big tour that most idols can only dream of and are all expressing interest in solo activities so Twice activities are going to take a backseat. Who knows maybe Jihyo will choose an acting debut over solo comeback?

    You call having an acting career "GG military"??? 'TF???


    Why are you upset at them for pursuing something else beyond being in the music industry?

    Sana also said she wants to try acting or voice acting. Iirc, in their Teen Vogue interview all members expressed interest in acting. It's common for idols to transition into acting.

    I would love to see Sana try voice acting :mesmerized-bee:

    She will have to try her luck in Japan where she will have to start from tiny roles
