Actress IU has completed an unprecedented filmography. She captivated viewers with her deepened acting skills in Netflix's "A Business Proposal."
On the 7th, Netflix released episodes 1 to 4 of "A Business Proposal." This work unfolds the adventurous lives of 'Ae-soon' (played by IU) and 'Gwan-sik' (played by Park Bo-gum) through the four seasons.
IU portrayed the bold Jeju girl 'Ae-soon.' She made her first appearance as a determined student, confidently declaring, "I'm going to marry a Seoul guy."
With delicate facial expressions, she conveyed the character's emotions perfectly. IU performed her first kiss scene with Park Bo-gum in a canola flower field, expressing both excitement and tension while tightly clenching her fists.
From the middle of the story, her emotional acting reached new depths. The situation of marrying a man with two children brought depth to her performance. A scene where IU says, "My mom must be crying," resonated powerfully with viewers.
Each episode showcased her remarkable life acting. In a scene where she runs through the rain to see her beloved Gwan-sik leave, she collapses by the sea and cries endlessly, leaving a deep impression.
The loveliness of Ae-soon was also palpable. IU ran away to Busan with Gwan-sik, wearing mismatched eye makeup and lipstick, which brought laughter to viewers.
In the latter part of the story, another emotional layer was revealed. She effectively portrayed the roles of a mother and a wife, expressing anger upon seeing her grandmother trying to make her daughter, Geum-myeong, a diver.
After just four episodes, viewers poured in positive reviews. Praise erupted for IU's deepened acting skills. From the bold Ae-soon to the affectionate Ae-soon, she created a character that keeps viewers glued to the screen.
Meanwhile, "A Business Proposal" is released every Friday at 4 PM, spanning a total of four weeks.
