Actress Kim Yoo-jung drew attention again with several behind-the-scenes photos that show the lingering presence of her character Baek Ah-jin from the recently concluded TVING original series "Dear X."
An update reported first by XportsNews underlined the enthusiastic response from fans who were impressed with her dramatic range.
Kim Yoo-jung surprised followers with the publication of new photos, without further commentary. The report indicated that she had posted several photos on her personal account without any particular comment, therefore having the visual tension itself speak about her feelings on set.
In the photos, Kim Yoo-jung maintains her portrayal of top actress Baek Ah-jin with a sociopathic disposition. According to the source, she drew the attention of viewers as she succeeded in capturing the temperature of her 'two-facedness' into one frame, from her gorgeous dress look to her rough wound makeup.
Her clothing is clearly different, as this reinforces the contrast of emotions, illustrating the complexity of her character and the extreme contrast in emotions she's demonstrated across the series.

One photo shows Kim Yoo-jung sitting on set with her script in hand, attired in a champagne-colored spangle dress and a fur coat. The fact that the stage floor is lighted and cables are visible creates a very real behind-the-scenes atmosphere that reinforces the intensity of production.
Another photo shows her in the backseat of the luxury car while maintaining the cold charisma of her character through a sharp, commanding gaze.
The article points out her transformation into the darker moments of Baek Ah-jin: "blood-splattered wound makeup on her face and neck, or a large gauze bandage on her cheek," symbolic of the unraveling of her glamorous façade and the emotional turmoil central to the drama.
TVING rewarded her effort with a message: "ou worked so hard, Ah-jin. I was happy to be with you."
The fans also reacted strongly online. Netizens said, "I can't let Baek Ah-jin go," "I love you, unnie, you're so pretty," and "I was so engrossed in it. You worked hard."
In other news, Actress Kim Yoo-jung went viral after sharing a surprising childhood story about her age-4 acting debut, revealing on a YouTube show that she learned Korean through scripts and memorized lines by having others read them to her.
According to Koreaboo, the revelation shocked host Jung Jae-hyung, who praised her early discipline as she explained she had always been eager to study, later becoming strong in Korean and reading comprehension. Fans were left impressed by her dedication from such a young age.
"Dear X," a webtoon-based melo-thriller, follows Baek Ah-jin's rise and downfall. The series finished with 12 episodes that left an impression, just like Kim Yoo-jung's latest photos.
