'Dynamite Kiss' Ahn Eun-jin fully handled a full-fledged romantic comedy and once again proved she is an irreplaceable actor.
Ahn Eun-jin established herself as an actor "whose next work is anticipated" by showcasing solid acting skills and a unique charm through a variety of works regardless of genre. In particular, there is a response that her unique ability to make any work or character her own adds depth to the drama. Accordingly, cable channel tvN's "Hospital Playlist" Choo Min-ha and MBC's "Lovers" Yoo Gil-chae, among others, are still regarded as Ahn Eun-jin's all-time characters and continue to receive much love.
Ahn Eun-jin added another all-time character through SBS's Wed-Thu drama 'Dynamite Kiss' (written by Ha Yoon-ah and Tae Kyung-min, directed by Kim Jae-hyun and Kim Hyun-woo), her first full-fledged romantic comedy challenge. It is the bright, resilient, hardworking and responsible, and lovable sunny female lead Go Da-rim.
In the final episode of 'Dynamite Kiss' aired on the 25th, Go Da-rim met a thrilling happy ending. The early-drama image of Go Da-rim, who had to lower her head after failing to find a job, was nowhere to be seen. Now Go Da-rim was an autonomous woman who protects the person she loves and carves out her own path. Go Da-rim's growth, having firmly grasped both work and love, resonated with many viewers and was seen as bringing great courage and hope.
Ahn Eun-jin captured Go Da-rim's emotional line, which changes according to the development of the plot, with varied acting. In the early episodes when she was a job seeker she delivered realistic acting; when she meets Gong Ji-hyuk (played by Jang Ki-yong) and experiences a "cataclysmic" kiss and falls in love, she showed a popping yet lovely charm; when she had to support her family's livelihood she showed a solid and strong side. The dramatic changes that befell Go Da-rim felt natural thanks to Ahn Eun-jin's stable and flexible acting.
Ahn Eun-jin's true value really shone from the moment Go Da-rim reunited with Gong Ji-hyuk at the company where she was working undercover as a mother. Go Da-rim had to continue the undercover job to make a living, but she felt an irresistible attraction to Gong Ji-hyuk. Go Da-rim's inability to pull back her feelings for Gong Ji-hyuk, the tears she dropped alone on the street from that pain, and the courage to reveal her secret were all moments where Ahn Eun-jin's delicate and deep acting shone.
Along with this, Ahn Eun-jin perfectly handled the sweet romance scenes with Jang Ki-yong, giving many viewers a fluttering excitement. Through her smile, expressions and eyes she fully conveyed the happiness of a woman in love. Her acting chemistry and rapport with her co-star also shone brilliantly. Above all, her visuals and style, made even more lovable by meeting the romantic comedy genre, became a major topic.
'Dynamite Kiss' maintained the No. 1 weekday drama rating across all channels throughout its run and never left the top ranks on Netflix globally. It truly drew explosive reactions at home and abroad and achieved syndrome-level popularity. This was possible because the female lead, Ahn Eun-jin, who perfectly accomplished her first full-fledged romantic comedy challenge, was there. It is impossible to imagine Go Da-rim without Ahn Eun-jin. Ahn Eun-jin's portrayal made Go Da-rim more lovable and someone viewers want to cheer for.
Ahn Eun-jin, an actor who is good at everything regardless of genre. Having conquered romantic comedy as well, Ahn Eun-jin once again proved she is an irreplaceable actor, and her next move is anticipated.
