I dunno if anyone else feels the same way I do but the guy just can't get into character. I guess it might be because he can't speak Korean but Daniel Henney(sp?) in Kim Sam Soon didn't either and he was a way better actor than Dennis Oh. Granted he's pretty good looking but quality people! QUALITY!!!

i think dennis oh is a lil awkward in the drama since he doesnt speak any korean at all but he seems to understand it, everybody speaks korean to him but he ends up replyin in english.... just a lil weird but he is very cute...

just finished The Sweet Spy last night .. I thought he was okay for a first timer hehe he will get better..

haha .. yeah he seriously lacks in the acting department... kinda disliked him in Sweet Spy.. his acting was so bad, had a really hard time watching him on the show, his whole speking english while listening to korean made the his character very unrealistic... at least his looks compensate for his terrible acting Smile

Yeah seriously.... he can't act worth a @#$!

Eye Candy... yeah I can understand that cause I'm a guy. Tongue

But since I'm a guy, give me a break.... get him into an acting class or something Glare

Don't insult him or talk the bad way to him! I love him lol and I will always support him Big Smile. He's alright for a first timer and he's the only one that can kiss prefectly lol Tongue Big Smile. I think he's nevervous because there was an interview and he told that he was nervous himself and acting was hard for him .... but I will support him throughout so don't talk to him like that Big Smile.

Frankly speaking, I don't understand how he got such a big role for a first time. Aren't they suppose to start with something small and build up?

What I also don't understand is why he also kept speaking English, while he was supposed to understand, read and write Korean. As a spy, would it not be more likely if he could speak Korean fluently as well?

But the girl made up for all of it. She is sooo dxxx cute and adorable, a second Lee Dae Hee, I would say.

I don't understand why everyone feels it's so unrealistic for him to keep speaking english while he was supposed to understand korean. I was actually like that, I can understand chinese because my parents speak chinese almost all the time (plus I'm good at guessing the meaning based on the context) but whenever they ask me something I always reply back in language that I am most comfortable speaking in. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I don't understand Korean so I cannot be annoyed by Dennis' accent if he speaks Korean in the drama, but won't Korean-speaking people be annoyed? I watched 1 episode of Love Story in Harvard and I had to stop because they speak english almost all the time and they hurt my ears. Horrible english. Likewise, in spring waltz the girl with glasses also say a long line of english that doesn't sound good at all. Annoyed the hell out of me. Short sentences are okay but long sentences ...... pale
Note: I'm referring to drama not everyday life.

yep, me too. I am totally comfortable listening when my parents/anyone else speak in vietnamese, but I tend to reply in english. sure we could go straight one way, my parents can switch to english or I could just switch to vietnamese, but it's not that big of a deal. You'll probably only think it's unrealistic if you don't know another language cause once you've been around people who do, you tend to notice that they stick to one language more than the other.

as for his acting... I seriously think that he did a pretty decent job for his first time. For Daniel Henney, it wasn't like he was the main character in Kim Sam Soon so his acting was kinda limited. Though he acted well in the parts he did do, it was still obvious that that was his first drama. All in all, I guess I have to disagree that Dennis can't act...
