About Kim So-yeon
Kim So-yeon: The Queen of Korean Drama
Kim So-yeon was born on November 2, 1980, in Seoul, South Korea. She started her acting career in 1994, at the age of 14, and quickly became one of the most popular actresses in Korea. Her breakthrough role came in 2002, when she played the lead in the drama series "All About Eve." Since then, she has starred in numerous hit dramas, including "Iris," "Two Weeks," and "The Penthouse."
Kim's talent and beauty have made her a beloved figure in Korea and beyond. She has won multiple awards for her performances, including the Best Actress award at the 2010 KBS Drama Awards for her role in "Prosecutor Princess." She has also been recognized for her contributions to Korean culture, receiving the Cultural Merit Medal in 2018.
Despite her success, Kim has faced challenges in her personal life. In 2010, she was involved in a scandal when a video of her and her then-boyfriend, actor Park Shi-hoo, was leaked online. The incident caused a media frenzy and led to a temporary hiatus in her career. However, Kim bounced back and continued to pursue her passion for acting.
Kim's latest project is the hit drama series "The Penthouse," in which she plays the role of Cheon Seo-jin, a wealthy and ruthless socialite. The show has been a massive success, breaking records for viewership and earning Kim critical acclaim for her performance.
Kim So-yeon's talent, beauty, and resilience have made her a true icon of Korean drama. Her fans eagerly await her next project, and there is no doubt that she will continue to captivate audiences with her performances for years to come.
