Kim Ji-won used to be an idol trainee... 'Beyoncé can do it, so why can't I?' ('Salon Drip 2')
  1. [+32;-6] If she had gone the idol route, she would've been on Karina's level, but acting suits her better anyway
  2. [+11;-4] Wow, she is genuinely gorgeous
  3. [+3;-1] Ae-ra wasn't even acting cute on purpose. She was just so pretty whenever she did it!
  4. [+2] Was she a trainee back when that 5th-generation LG Cyon CF came out? I remember wondering if she was a rookie idol at the time
  5. [+1;-1] It's way better she didn't debut as an idol. Even when actors cross over, that 'former idol' label sticks to them like glue, making it super hard to get recognized unless you're an absolute powerhouse at acting. That label just follows you around forever. Besides, Kim Ji-won doesn't have an idol face, she's pure actress material.
