Bae Suzy's performance so far in "Uncontrollably Fond", infatuated by her beauty

Bae Suzy is pretty. Comments after comments about Bae Suzy's beauty pile up after the drama. Her beauty was picked out as one of the points to look out for in the drama but that was it. She hasn't done anything to turn the tables on the issues of her performance until now.

Bae Suzy takes on the role of Noh Eul, a documentary director. Noh Eul was a bright girl even though her family was wealthy but after her father died of a hit-and-run accident, she does anything for money. Her life changed overnight.

She's been involved with Sin Joon-yeong (Kim Woo-bin) since her teenage days. Noh Eul and top star Sin Joon-yeong go way back since their teenage years. In the third episode, Noh Eul was hit by a car because of Sin Joon-yeong.

It's only been 4 episodes but Bae Suzy hasn't had enough time to deal with the issues of her acting skills. The amount of emotions Bae Suzy has to express through Noh Eul is deep and wide. However, her speech and awkward facial expressions is still out there on the table. She is yet to relate with Noh Eul's complicated emotions as well. Bae Suzy started acting in 2011 with "Dream High" and she's led several other dramas but the controversy about her performance is still there.

Sometimes, there are reviews that Bae Suzy did well in some parts of the drama. However, that's not enough for a leading actress who has taken on a 20-episode drama. A drama is not a practice for a single actor. The fact that "Uncontrollably Fond" is a pre-produced drama is also another concern.

It's a good thing that Bae Suzy's performance is getting better by every episode. The chemistry she has with Kim Woo-bin is also the reason for the double-digit percentage.

One thing to go over is that the standard of evaluating an idol-actor doesn't reflect the fact that she's an idol. Regardless of the results of "Uncontrollably Fond", Bae Suzy is already a good enough star to be recruited by other dramas. Hopefully, the drama will end with Bae Suzy getting a standing ovation.
