In recent years, it has been quite common for K-Pop idols to transition into acting quite early on in their careers. We cannot help but wonder what the EPEX members would be like if they were to debut as actors. Here are 8 K-Drama genres we think would fit the 8 EPEX members perfectly!
1. Wish - School Mystery
Wish’s charming and protective nature would be perfect for a campus mystery drama. He would make for an amazing student detective as he unravels the mysteries that lurk behind a prestigious private school. Something like “The School Nurse Files” or “The Great Shaman Ga DooShim” would be ideal for Wish’s drama debut.
2. Keum - Music, Youth
There’s a dreamlike quality to Keum that is hard to miss. Even though he has already debuted as an actor (he was in “Best Mistake 2” and will be appearing in “Best Mistake 3”), a drama that holds the magic of young minds with big dreams is perfect for Keum, especially if it is related to music or any other art. As it is still a sentiment that is rich in Keum, he would be able to fulfill a similar character better than anyone else.
3. Mu - Noona Romance
Mu’s puppy-like personality would be perfectly suited to a noona romance. An upper-class senior student, a friend’s older sister, the possibilities are endless. Such a story would be pure and innocent but still exciting and entertaining. Even though Mu might seem reserved, he has a fire inside him: a characteristic that makes us believe that he would be able to woo his noona with ease.
4. AMin - Family Drama
AMin has such a soothing and adorable personality that we would love to see him every day of the week in a long-form family drama. Something like “High Kick!” or “My Father is Strange” would be perfect for highlighting AMin’s strengths. With Korean sitcoms on the rise once again and global OTT platforms taking them on, it doesn’t sound too far-fetched at all!
5. BaekSeung - Historical Drama
BaekSeung has already appeared in a cameo role in “Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha” as a member of the fictional boy group DOS but it probably cannot be considered his drama debut. With his towering physique and extraordinary visuals, we’d love to see him debut in a historical drama!
6. Ayden - Thriller / Heist
Ayden is knowledgeable, curious, and brilliant. He is also known as the brain of the team! Doesn’t that remind you of the hacker in any heist drama/film? An action-thriller or heist drama would be perfect for Ayden’s drama debut. We can totally imagine him coding away and getting into super-secret databases, leading the team to a seamless victory.
7. YeWang - Campus Romance
YeWang seems like he would be the kind of actor who would perfectly pull of the role of the ideal tsundere in a campus romance. His striking visuals would make all the students either want to be with him or be him but he would have eyes only on the one special transfer student who is different from everyone else.
8. Jeff - Supernatural
If there’s one EPEX member we’d like to see in a supernatural drama, it is Jeff. His mysterious eyes and contemplative nature would make him an amazing gumiho. Besides, when his tender-hearted and soft side is revealed, we’re sure viewers will fall even more in love with him. Which EPEX member would you like to see in a K-Drama?
