Acting for the first time in 7 years really caught BoA’s ankle. As a singer who debuted 25 years ago, BoA has skills that no one can say in her main job. However, after becoming an actor for the first time in a long time, his challenge came back to 'shaving off my skin'.

While tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Marry My Husband' continues to gain popularity by exceeding 10% in viewership ratings, BoA's popularity, which appeared at the end of episode 11, has surpassed that of 'trash husband' Lee Yi-kyung. Unlike Lee Yi-kyung, who received favorable reviews for her creepy villainous performance, BoA's awkward expression and acting skills are the reason for the topic.

BoA's role is Oh Yu-ra, the vice president of a cloud airline and the granddaughter of a chaebol, the former fiancé of Yoo Ji-hyuk (played by Na In-woo). As he is a character introduced in the latter part of 'Marry My Husband', he also plays the role of a key player who turns the situation around and controls the situation.

However, BoA's acting skills were disappointing compared to expectations. Also, his facial expression and over-lip makeup that seemed to have changed somehow were more noticeable than his acting. Viewers also commented that BoA's lips seemed to have changed, making them less immersive.

BoA responded immediately to this reaction. Through the live broadcast, he explained, "It seems like a lot of people are interested in my appearance these days. I have a habit of biting my mouth. I guess that's why it has spread. You don't have to worry. My lips are fine."

BoA coolly responded to negative comments about her appearance. However, the problem was not overlips but inaccurate vocalization and awkward acting skills. Above all, in 'Marry My Husband', actors who play villain characters such as Lee Yi-kyung and Song Ha-yoon show acting skills that earn them rave reviews as 'characters of life', so BoA's performance as the 'final villain' is even more powerful. It felt like it wasn't there.

Above all, BoA has starred in the dramas 'Expecting Love' and 'This Week, My Wife is Cheating' as well as the movies 'Big Match' and 'Autumn Post Office', making the untimely controversy over her acting skills all the more unfortunate.

Just focusing on your main job is enough. He debuted as a solo singer at the age of 15 and is already an industry legend based on his accomplishments. He is a leader in K-pop who pioneered the Korean Wave throughout Asia, especially in Korea and Japan, and was the first Korean singer to enter the Billboard 200, the main chart of the US Billboard, helping to promote K-pop around the world. Recently, he also served as a producer for NCT WISH.

His performance as a judge was also great. With the know-how and skills accumulated over a long career, she showed off her strong presence in 'Street Woman Fighter', 'Street Man Fighter', 'Produce 101 Season 2', and 'K-Pop Star Season 2'.

‘Marry My Husband’ became a painful filmography for BoA. It's unclear whether we'll see actress Kwon Bo-ah again, but wouldn't fans also want her to focus on her day job rather than acting? We already know that her challenge is great.
