Go Yoon Jung is currently rising as a popular young actress, and her past is being revisited.
Having studied art since middle school, Go Yoon Jung graduated from Seoul Women’s University with a major in modern art and was a cover model for the 771st issue of “Daehak Naeil” (University Tomorrow) magazine.
At that time, Go Yoon Jung expressed her reason for choosing art through an interview, “When people appreciate my work, some may reminisce about the past, and others may feel various emotions. It’s nice to share the time, effort, and sensibility I invested in my work.”
Despite receiving numerous offers from management agencies at that time, Go Yoon Jung felt she lacked talent and declined. It was during this period that the current company representative introduced her to an acting teacher and encouraged her to give it a try.
As a result, Go Yoon Jung began her career as a model and eventually decided to pursue acting after attending auditions.
Debuting in 2019 with the drama “He Is Psychometric,” she built a strong filmography with appearances in “Sweet Home,” “Alchemy of Souls,” and the movie “Hunt.”
Through “Moving,” she rose to prominence as one of the most loved rising actresses in her 20s after just four years since her debut.
The webtoon-based “Moving,” which was first released on August 9, is a supernatural action hero story in which children with hidden superpowers and parents who have concealed painful secrets face a looming threat that transcends time and generations.
In the drama, Go Yoon Jung portrayed Hee Soo, a physical education student with regenerative abilities, leading the early narrative with a character image not seen in her previous dramas, capturing the hearts of fans worldwide.
As a result, “Moving” ranked first in the integrated content rankings for the third and fourth weeks of August after its release and achieved the No. 1 position in the TV-OTT comprehensive popularity ranking. In August, Go Yoon Jung also ranked second in the actor brand reputation rankings.
Go Yoon Jung expressed her gratitude, “‘Moving’ is also a work I gave my best for, so I’m thankful that viewers love it. Please look forward to more in the future.”
