Besides the cases of similar appearance but opposite fate, the Korean screen also has Korean stars with similar beauty and careers.

The lovely actress Son Ye Jin and the "rain girl" Kim So Hyun are famous among them. In fact, Kim So Hyun is known as "Little Son Ye Jin" by the audience.

She also acted in a movie with her senior in "The Last Princess". In the movie, Kim So Hyun plays the young role of Princess Deok Hye (Son Ye Jin).

Son Ye Jin is considered to share many similarities with the pure and heavenly image of the female gem Kim So Hyun.

Even in an interview, Son Ye Jin herself admitted that she and Kim So Hyun had many similarities.

Besides, the "rain girl" is also considered to be completely capable of "usurping the throne" of the senior's career in the future.

Because, the actress not only possesses a sharp appearance, but Kim So Hyun's acting treasure is also extremely impressive.

Kim So Hyun is known as a child star when she started acting at the age of 7. With more than 14 years of experience in acting, Kim So Hyun constantly challenges herself with many images.

From villains and protagonists in historical films to romantic school titles. Notably, the dramas that the actress participated in always recorded impressive ratings.

Among the typical works such as: "The Moon Embracing the Sun", "School 2015", "The Tale Of Nokdu", "Love Alarm", "River Where the Moon Rises" .

Despite being young, Kim So Hyun has always been highly appreciated by fans for her acting. However, the actress also increasingly asserted her talent and marked the maturity in each role.

Surely in the future, the actress is probably one of the "rivals" that senior Son Ye Jin must be wary of!

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
