New Faces Stir the Pot in October’s Netizen Actress Rankings
In true K-drama fashion, October’s Netizen Awards kicked off with an unexpected plot twist—three new contenders made a grand entrance in the Best Actress category: Park Minyoung, Jung Chaeyeon, and Suzy. Although their entry scores vary, all three actresses are setting the stage for a potential power shift.
Park Minyoung: The Quiet Storm at No. 7
Park Minyoung is off to a strong start with 95 votes (3.2%), landing her in 7th place. While there’s still a gap between her and the top few, Minyoung’s loyal fandom could be the secret sauce that drives her up the rankings. Currently playing the savvy leader Yun Iran in TV Chosun’s Confidence Man KR, she’s back in action and ready to stir drama—on and off screen.
Jung Chaeyeon: Debuting at No. 15 with Legal Flair
Jung Chaeyeon comes in at 15th with 21 votes (0.7%). Not bad for a rookie in this race. Her recent role as rookie attorney Hyomin in JTBC’s Esquire has caught viewer attention. Though her current ranking is modest, her online buzz could ignite a rise—especially if fans rally behind her with the same intensity as a courtroom drama.
Suzy: Star Power at Play in 17th
While Suzy lands at 17th with 14 votes (0.5%), her name alone turns heads. With Apple-level brand power, Suzy’s star quality can’t be underestimated. All eyes are on her upcoming Netflix series Doona!, set to drop on the 3rd. A solid performance could translate to a fan voting surge—and maybe a surprise rankings shake-up.
Kim Hyeyoon Leads, But the Game Isn’t Over
Kim Hyeyoon is currently the one to beat with 1,356 votes (a whopping 46.2%), but the three new entrants could stir momentum, especially in mid-to-lower tiers. The arrival of Park Minyoung, Jung Chaeyeon, and Suzy isn’t just about placements—it signals a generational mix-up in the best actress game.
What’s Next?
Will these rising stars disrupt the top ranks, or simply add depth to the game? Fans are watching closely. In K-entertainment, one viral scene can change everything. So, who’s your pick for the next curveball?
