• Netizens say this idol nearly took the lead role in "Marry My Husband" but lost it to Park Min Young

    In the spotlight for her stunning performance in "Marry My Husband," Park Min Young wasn't the only one considered for the lead role.

    Surprisingly, (G)I-DLE's Minnie was in the running before Park Min Young ultimately landed the part.

    The series "Marry My Husband" has gained immense popularity in various Asian countries. Fans and critics alike have praised the stellar performances of the cast, particularly highlighting Park Min Young's exceptional portrayal of the character Ji Won.

    Notably, the series not only brought fame to its cast but also drew attention to a surprising candidate – Minnie from the popular music group (G)I-DLE.

    In the past, Minnie participated in a promotional clip and posed for the poster of "Marry My Husband." This led to speculation and rumors among netizens about her potentially playing the lead role.

    However, it turns out she was featured in an advertisement clip for the "Marry My Husband" series and not the main role.

    Reflecting on Minnie's portrayal of Ji Won, fans appreciate her beauty, but some feel she lacks the intensity required for the revenge-seeking character.

    Unlike Park Min Young, Minnie is perceived as too gentle and sophisticated, fitting more into a young lady role rather than that of an office worker.

    Despite her stunning looks, Park Min Young's performance still outshines Minnie's potential in "Marry My Husband."
