Kim Gyu Ri – from the most hated character of Glass Slippers to the hot beauty of the Korean screen

Contrary to an unimpressive acting career, Kim Gyu Ri has her beauty enhanced over time.

Glass Slippers is one of the most iconic Korean dramas that caused a storm all over Asia for a while. Among the factors that make the drama’s success is the wicked girl Woo Seung Hee (Kim Gyu Ri). In the drama, she posed as Kim Yun Hee when this character lost her memory to become the daughter of a rich family. This character was so impressive that for a long time after that, Kim Gyu Ri was still “boycotted” by the audience whenever she appeared in public.

After the success of Glass Slippers, Gyu Ri continuously received villain roles and entered the Top 10 most successful villain roles on the Korean screen. However, since then, the career of the actress has not been very prominent. She continuously received the main roles in Ode to the Han River, The King’s Face, My Dear Girl – Jinyoung, etc., which, however, did not achieve great ratings or generate high discussion. Failing in the drama segment, Kim Gyu Ri entered the movie field with a shocking role in Portrait Of A Beauty. This can be considered a turning point in her career due to the hot nude scenes between her and the two co-actors Kim Nam Gil and Kim Young Ho. Recently, she returned to the screen with the project Green Mothers’ Club of jTBC, but this title did not resonate much when the opening rating was only 2.5%.

However, although the acting career is somewhat faint, the beauty of the Glass Slippers’s actress is increasingly enhancing. Surprisingly, compared to the time of Glass Slippers, Kim Gyu Ri does not look any older and her facial features are even sharper. Now at the age of 43, Kim Gyu Ri has become a U50 beauty with a sweet, loving beauty and still maintains a single life after several failed dates.
