“Squid Game”‘s Jung Ho Yeon Once Stormed Off Set During A Modeling Competition — Here’s What Happened
본문
Squid Game actress Jung Ho Yeon has been catapulted into true stardom, as she boasts incredible popularity ever since the premiere of the Netflix series just a couple weeks ago. However, longtime fans know that Jung Ho Yeon was a well-known model way before her acting career took off.
As her popularity continues to rise at an impressive rate, the model-turned-actress’s past is slowly being unearthed — and the most recent headline is from her previous modeling competition days.
Jung Ho Yeon once competed in a supermodel competition program called Devil’s Runway. The show featured veteran and rookie models, who competed in team battles for a chance to win ₩100 million KRW (about $84,400 USD). Top models Han Hye Jin and Soo Joo were brought onto the show to act as mentors for the competing teams.
While the show is from 2016, there is one particular segment of the show that is starting to gain traction following Jung Ho Yeon’s Squid Game appearance. The reason behind the sudden headlines is due to the tension that was built between Jung Ho Yeon and Han Hye Jin. Jung Ho Yeon was on Han Hye Jin’s team and for the mission that will be shown below, Jung Ho Yeon went up against her close friend and fellow model, Kim Jin Kyung.

I understand that they’re close, but I wish they wouldn’t show it off like that. They’re in a situation where one person has to do better than the other.

Honestly, I got really really upset because Jin Kyung’s skirt was really short so I helped her hold it down. She was also wearing really high heels and her feet looked like they were in pain so I helped her with her shoes as well. But she [Han Hye Jin] tells me to ‘mind my own business.’
