Acting-dols criteria (January 2022): Due to the huge number of idols in the acting field, we have tried to limit the list to idols genuinely active in acting and not to all the idols acting. At Kpopmap, we always prioritize the opinions of our readers first. That is why these criteria have been made out of readers’ opinions. We held a poll (here) and we opened an open discussion on Reddit (here). You’ve asked us to be stricter in our criteria and so here are the new rules. . In a K-Drama, Netflix Original drama, or a movie:
Two lead roles (was clearly one of the main characters)
or
One lead role and 2 supporting roles
or
More than 4 supporting roles
. Guest roles can’t be considered supporting roles . Only dramas over 6 episodes (special and short dramas are excluded) . Only movies released in Korean theaters (not just online) (at the exception of Netflix original movies) . No web dramas (exception for Netflix) . Only Korean releases Kpopmap’s criteria for acting-dols are not absolute or the right answer. It is just criteria applied in the content of Kpopmap. And these criteria can change according to the trends or fans’ opinions. The other acting-dols have been included in the following article: Top 39 Most Followed Korean Male Celebrities & Other Celebrities On Instagram KPOP STORIES|Oct 7, 2022 Did we miss anyone?

Let’s have a look together at his filmography (without his guest roles): Chinese movie “Catman” - Main role Upcoming movie (2022.01.26) “The Pirates: Goblin Flag” - supporting role [according to Naver] Web drama “EXO Next Door” - Main role Web drama “Secret Queen Makers” - Main role Web Drama “Dokgo Rewind” - Main role Chinese Web Drama “Dear Archimedes” - Main role K-Drama “Now, We Are Breaking Up” - supporting role As stated, non-Korean releases and web dramas are not taken into account. So if we calculate with our current criteria, SeHun has only two supporting roles (after Jan. 26). We hope this is clear.
