Kim Yoo Jung recently went to a press conference for Netflix's "20th Century Girl," but many fans were confused by what she was wearing.

Since she was young, Kim Yoo Jung has been known for the way she looks. Even people who aren't fans of hers often compliment her acting skills and good looks. Even if an actor is very pretty, a bad outfit can sometimes make them look strange, even if they are very pretty.

Kim Yoo Jung got a lot of attention when she wore purple, which was her name in the drama "Na Bora." Kim Yoo Jung wore a purple coat and purple socks that matched, giving her a unique and elegant look.

Some fans were upset with the stylist for her outfit, while others praised Kim Yoo Jung for being able to pull off the strange look. But there were also people who couldn't stop making jokes about her outfit.

On October 20, a post about Kim Yoo Jung began trending on Nate's community board under the title, "I REALIZED THAT KIM YOOJUNG IS SERIOUSLY REALLY PRETTY".

The netizen who wrote the post stated, "Even when she wears these clothes, she has a beautiful face, so the outfit doesn't look weird at all. ㄷㄷ Seriously, this is written all over her face".

Other netizens quickly responded and shared their opinions:

Even in this Park Geun Hye outfit, she looks pretty.

I don't know why, but this is my favorite picture. She looked much better in the other pictures, but there's something about her here.

Kim Yoo Jung is the best example of how things can get better despite wearing an awful dress. She has always been pretty, even when she was young.

This is photo went viral on Twitter recently because her facial features are crazy.

Kim Yoo Jung is impressive because she made her debut in 2003 and no one has ever talked about her looks in 20 years because she grew up so pretty.

No, I'm not kidding. Isn't Kim Yoo Jung the most beautiful person right now? I saw her "20th Century Girl" trailer out of the blue and thought she was pretty as hell.

If you saw her whole outfit, you'd be shocked at how bad it was… You should only look at Kim Yoo Jung's zoomed-in face shots.

The highly criticized When the Stars Gossip, known as a "50 billion won failure," has finally ended, but its shadow still looms over tvN's new drama The Potato Lab.

According to Nielsen Korea on March 2, the first episode of The Potato Lab recorded a 1.7% viewership rating.

In comparison, When the Stars Gossip started at 3.3%, dropped to a record low of 1.8%, and barely managed to end at 2.6%. With such a shaky start, can The Potato Lab break free from its predecessor’s unfortunate fate?

The Potato Lab is a healing romantic comedy that takes place in, well, a potato lab! The story follows Mikyung (played by Lee Sun Bin), a woman whose life revolves around potatoes, and Baek Ho (played by Kang Tae Oh), a cold-hearted perfectionist who suddenly enters her world.

Their whirlwind romance, much like a spiral potato skewer, brings unexpected twists. The cast also includes Lee Hak Joo, Kim Ga Eun, and Shin Hyun Seung.

The drama has gained attention as Kang Tae Oh’s comeback project after his military discharge. Since completing his service in March last year, Kang carefully chose The Potato Lab from multiple offers, taking on the role of So Baek Ho, the director of organizational innovation at Wonhan Retail and the temporary head of the potato lab.

Meanwhile, its predecessor When the Stars Gossip was supposed to be a massive hit with its grand-scale space romance featuring Gong Hyo Jin and Lee Min Ho.

The drama, which took five years to prepare and cost over 50 billion won, was filmed over a year from 2022 to 2023. But despite the hype, the outcome was disastrous.

The ratings started at 3.3% and peaked at 3.9% in episode 2, only to plummet to 2.2% by episode 3. It reached an all-time low of 1.8% in episodes 5 and 7. Even the second-to-last episode struggled with just 1.8%, and the finale barely recovered to 2.6%.

Because of this, The Potato Lab now faces an uphill battle. When the Stars Gossip struggled against competing dramas like SBS’s Love Scout and JTBC’s The Tale of Lady Ok, as well as their successors Buried Hearts and Undercover High School. The new drama has inherited this tough time slot, making things even more difficult.

But there’s still hope! tvN’s weekend dramas often see a viewership boost on Sundays, and fans are already loving the refreshing chemistry between Kang Tae Oh and Lee Sun Bin. Plus, Kang Tae Oh’s return with a more mature image and refined acting is expected to attract more viewers.

The big question is—can The Potato Lab create its own success, or will it be another victim of When the Stars Gossip’s curse? Only time will tell!
