Objectively speaking, apart from having the same starting point as child actors, the careers of the two female stars surnamed Kim don’t have much in common. Both are recognized for their acting ability through different projects by showing their own colors.

Kim Yoo Jung from a young age has matched well with an innocent, sweet, kindhearted character and often stars in historical dramas. She succeeds as a “grown-up actress” through hit dramas such as Love In the Moonlight, Backstreet Rookie and currently Hong Chun Gi. Excellent visuals and impressive acting skills make Kim Yoo Jung known as the goddess of Korean historical dramas.
