Knowledgeable Beanies: Do you know why Junho is getting leading roles but Chansung is always supporting? I like them both and I just was curious because they are the same age and… group 🙂

    I feel Junho’s acting is way better than Chan-sung and so he’s getting leading roles which he deserves.
    Chan sung is still sharpening his skills.

    Oc Taec, Chansung and Wooyoung debut in acting first compare to Junho. But, Junho take different route, he start in big screen and has good review for his act. His experience in big screen with many famous co-star give him chance to explore his talent and when he made debut in small screen, he always choose good drama with good rating. That’ why his journey to take lead role in small screen is faster compare to the others.

      Thank you! I see your point, that he did a great job choosing projects (combined with his abilities of course). In the end it’s always a combination of looks + abilities + strategy, and he seems to be excelling at all 😀

        Yes, in one interview he said that when his group member made debut in acting or solo, he does nothing. He feel desperate to figure out what he is best with. He is not confidence enough to made acting debut, so he does nothing. But he learn how to acting in his free time. He is luck to meet sunbaenim such as Han Hyo Jo, Jung Wo Sung, etc to made him learn about acting.
        And yes, with the right project, he can show many things that somehow Knetz forget that he is an Idol.

    From what I’ve seen of the 2PM members’ acting, Junho just has a much bigger range and has picked good projects recently. He seems very naturally gifted.

    Chansung is good but I feel like he can only play certain character types right now, and he excels at the slimy/annoying/egotistic/comedic types. I don’t think he’s got the gravitas and subtlety that Junho has. Yet!

    Taecyeon… needs to improve. His handsome face can only get him so far in the acting industry right now. 🙂

      thanks for your explanation! Now that I think about it, Chansung really only plays a certain type – but he is very good at that 🙂 After all the beanies nice answers to my question I have to watch more of junho! And yeah… didn’t even think of Taecyeon, who is … his own class of face to acting ability ratio 😀
