In regards to the discussion about idols appearing in dramas, MC Lee Yoon Suk analyzed, "There are a lot of cases in which [idols from] smaller agencies appear in cable dramas out of a sense of duty to raise up the group, but I think there are also a lot of cases in which top idols who had already established themselves appear in dramas to start preparing to leave the group."


MC Park Ji Yoon then commented, "I wonder if therepresentative example of the latter statement would be Girls' Generation," grabbing attention, especially as Jessica is currently out of the group. Back in 2012,Jessicaappeared inKBSdrama, 'Wild Romance,' withLee Dong Wook.


Do you think the MCs' suspicions about acting-dols hold water?
