While Shin Se-kyung and Yoo Ah-in from the new SBS drama "Fashion King" have been drawing attention with their detailed and sly acts, Lee Je-hoon is showing disappointment.

The three main casts of the drama Yeong-gul (Yoo Ah-in), Ga-yeong (Shin Se-kyung) and Jae-hyeok (Lee Je-hoon) were in America on the episode of the drama on the 20th.

The crew of the deep-sea fishing boat Yeong-gul was on created a revolt against the boatswain. Yeong-gul struggles hard in this process. He was shameless but innocent even when his life was at stake and showed wits when the moment needed it, getting himself out of the situation.

Having arrived in America after many difficulties, Yeong-gul wanders around the wilderness where there's no one with a shabby look. However, he gets pointed out as the main culprit of the revolt and faces another risk. Yoo Ah-in shines in this process.

Yeong-gul has no fear, is simple minded and is loyal to his basic desires. However, deep down he has the pain of disharmony in his family. Yoo Ah-in has melted into the character of Yeong-gul very well like he was his very own self.

Shin Se-kyung also managed to pull off the typical 'candy' character of Lee Ga-yeong without trouble. She displayed the image of naïve but bold Lee Ga-yeong. Some say she has taken off the innocent veil she had been wearing all this while.

The fact that Shin Se-kyung challenged herself to Ga-yeong, a life survivor who developed her life as she went unlike the very innocent and passive roles she had done in the past is something to be surprised about.

Ga-yeong arrived at Parson's School with much difficulty but the door is slammed in her face due to Madame Jo's (Chang Mi-hee) plot. She found out that Jae-hyeok, whom she ran into once at Jo Boutique was in alliance with the Pason's School and went to find him for help.

Shin Se-kyung did well to express the detailed mentality of Ga-yeong in that frustrating situation and proved her character's existence.

On the other hand, Lee Je-hoon's acting is quite disappointing. Je-hyeok is a rich character in the drama. He is selfish and arrogant thanks to the wealth and is cocky to anyone despite age, social status or more. Lee Je-hoon requires much experience to carry out this character.

However, Lee Je-hoon expressed Jeong Jae-hyeok only as strong. The tone of his voice in scenes together with the other casts and his facial expressions were too rigid.

It brings up the thought if he really is the right actor for this role. Maybe he just put on something that didn't fit him.
