Actor Kim Yoo-jung hinted at a new acting transformation while showing her still bright appearance.
On the 6th, Kim Yoo-jung posted on her social account Dear X! tonight at 6, she wrote. The drama is based on a webtoon of the same name and depicts the sociopath Baek A-jin, who, with her beautiful appearance and keen mind, uses everyone to climb to a position she desires. In this work Kim Yoo-jung plays the lead role of Baek A-jin.
In reality, the calm yet elegant but strangely tinged Kim Yoo-jung was widely regarded as a perfect casting for the role of Baek A-jin. Kim Yoo-jung, aiming to convey Baek A-jin's feel, wore bangs and held a slightly curt smile. Yet on set she mingled freely with the other actors, which felt very much like Kim Yoo-jung.
Beside Kim Yoo-jung are Kim Young-dae and Kim Do-hoon, who unconditionally help Baek A-jin, but they are divided into roles that understand Baek A-jin or unconditionally support her, raising expectations about what conflicts may arise later.
Internet users reacted variously, saying "The casting is truly perfect" and "I enjoyed the original and I want to see the drama soon."
Meanwhile, Dear X, which stars Kim Yoo-jung, will premiere on Nov. 6, with four episodes released initially and the rest released sequentially each week.
