Even though "Twenty Five Twenty One" has ended it is still a controversial topic on social networks.

In addition to the ending that destroyed all efforts to build in the first 15 episodes of the drama, another issue that was also discussed by the audience. It's the acting of actress Kim So Hyun, who plays the middle-aged version of Na Hee Do.

Although the movie has ended, the audience still feels extremely uncomfortable with the performance of actress Kim So Hyun. Many people think that from her charisma to her acting, she is far behind the female lead Kim Tae Ri - who took on the role of Na Hee Do in her youth.

Kim So Hyun's superficial performance as if sleeping makes the middle-aged Na Hee Do turn into a different person, no longer the enthusiastic and confident Na Hee Do of her youth.

On social networks, the audience left a lot of harsh comments regarding Kim So Hyun's performance. Many people also frankly think that even though she is a senior in the profession, her acting is far behind Kim Tae Ri.

However, she still has a lot of acting experience because she is a professional actor on the musical stage.

Because of the illustrious biography on stage, the audience had high expectations for Kim So Hyun's performance in "Twenty Five Twenty One", but only received disappointment.

Comments from the audience:

• The old Na Hee Do looks so boring, the acting doesn't have any similarities with the young Na Hee Do, it's like the same name, not the Na Hee Do anymore.
• Well, everyone, when Na Hee Do was a child, she always pouted her lips and asked questions when she was a child, but when she suddenly got old she didn't pout like that anymore feels like she changed her mouth muscles.
• This lady's acting is so boring I feel like she's trying to act quickly and then go to sleep or why is she so dazed that she doesn't have the depth of her emotions?
• Why don't you let Kim Tae Ri also play the middle-aged role and make viewers lose their emotions.
• But the middle-aged NHD's mouth is boring and always sticks out, with the image that I don't see any similarities with Na Hee Do on her young age
• This old lady's acting is worse. Every time the series shows a modern scene, she's in a mood drop. Wonder how she managed to successfully cast this role? I can't even stand up, I'm bored, I don't even bother to talk.
• About Kim So Hyun personally, she is a very new face on the Korean screen, although at her age, the number of films she has participated in, is only 2.

STAYC’s Sieun brought some serious laughs with her father, legendary singer Park Nam Jung, on JTBC's Knowing Bros during the Lunar New Year special on January 25!

In this special episode, Sieun introduced herself as a “transfer student” in the fun segment “Bound by Blood.”

She proudly declared, “I’m Park Nam Jung’s daughter, STAYC’s Sieun, with a perfect voice and honey-like charm.” She even joked, “The more I look in the mirror, the more I see my dad. I look just like him!”

While Park Nam Jung was full of praise for his daughter’s natural talent, recalling how Sieun would copy dance moves from TV performances and win every school singing contest since middle school, Sieun got real about growing up with a famous father.

“When I was younger, it was really hard to deal with,” she admitted. “But now, I’m starting to appreciate it more. When I go on variety shows, people always say, ‘I was a fan of your dad,’ and it makes me greet them again.”

But it wasn’t all serious! Sieun didn’t hold back when talking about her dad's fashion choices, saying, “Sometimes I feel embarrassed by his fashion sense,” sending the audience into laughter. She even shared how her dad doesn’t get mad, but just gets “sulky” instead.

Sieun and Park Nam Jung also put on a show-stopping performance, singing a mix of his hits “Days of Rain” and “Longing for You,” alongside STAYC’s “Teddy Bear” and “GPT” dances.

The father-daughter duo ended their performance with an emotional duet of Aladdin’s “A Whole New World,” which brought the house down.

On the group’s side, STAYC has been busy with major milestones, recently wrapping up their first world tour TEENFRESH and releasing their debut full album Metamorphic. The group is currently gearing up for their next big release!
