Here are 5 K-Dramas/films starring Krystal that best display her versatility!
1. “Prison Playbook” (K-Drama)
Krystal plays the straightforward and honest Kim JiHo in “Prison Playbook”, whose unwavering faith in our protagonist Kim JeHyuk (played by Park HaeSoo), her ex-boyfriend, leads him out of the darkest time in his life. JiHo is sincere, extremely smart, and deeply loyal. She knows JeHyuk better than anyone else and understands his emotional needs even when they’re left unexpressed. Everyone deserves a Kim JiHo in their lives.
2. “More Than Family” (Film)
In “More Than Family”, Krystal takes on the leading role of Kim ToIl: a free-spirited and feisty young woman who gets pregnant at the age of 21 and fully intends to keep the baby. The father of the child is 20-year-old Jang HoHoon (played by Shin JaeHwi), who, despite not being her intellectual match, deeply loves and adores her nonetheless. Upon facing disapproval from her parents (mother and step-father), ToIl sets out to find her biological father and realizes the true meaning of family in the process. The strength of character, determination and emotional maturity that Krystal portrays through Kim ToIl will tug at your heartstrings and keep you invested from the beginning to the end. “More Than Family” is a must-watch.
3. “More Charming By The Day” (K-Drama)
Krystal’s acting debut with “More Charming By The Day” could very well be considered one of the best idol actor debuts of all time. Krystal plays Jung SooJung in the sitcom, a bubbly high school student who marches to the beat of her own drum. She is playful, sassy, and perfectly adept at getting her way. Krystal maintains an endearing balance between innocence and naivete, and it is this quality that makes her character so charming.
4. “Sweet & Sour” (Film)
“Sweet & Sour” tells the story of a couple deeply in love who suddenly drift apart when a number of variables begin to interfere in their relationship. Jang Hyuk (Jang KiYong) grapples with keeping his professional and personal life afloat while his girlfriend Jeong DaEun (Chae SooBin) struggles with an unexpected pregnancy. The sweetness of their romance turns into a bittersweet farewell as boundaries are crossed, and honesty takes a back seat. Krystal plays Han BoYeong, Jang Hyuk’s ambitious, independent and charming coworker who sways him into a romantic affair. She doesn’t hesitate to speak her mind, and her intentions are never unclear. Han BoYeong lives for herself, and it is strangely inspiring to see her stick to her principles, regardless of the consequences.
5. “Crazy Love” (K-Drama)
Finally, this list would not be complete without Krystal’s latest and arguably her best work yet, “Crazy Love”. The duality she portrays as Lee ShinA, a timid secretary turned Lady Vengeance, speaks volumes of her protean talent. The way Krystal imbues her performance with studied nuance is deserving of high praise. Krystal truly has a knack for choosing incredible projects and “Crazy Love” is definitely one of them.
