Sohn Ye-jin’s Facebook sel-cas

by javabeans

Looks like a certain A-list star has been spending some quality online procrastinatin’ time on that king of time-wasting enablers, Facebook: Sohn Ye-jin (Personal Taste, Into the White Night) has uploaded a whole bunch of sel-cas (short for self-camera, per Korea’s typical penchant for mangling English in an attempt to come up with a witty portmanteau — in this case it means self-shot photograph) to her account, as you can see below.

Sohn wrote, “For the first time in a long while, I present to you the sel-cas that have been stored in my cell phone. Are you all doing well? Now there are only three more shoots left for the movie Chilling Romance. Please send me your encouragement that we finish it safely.”

She added, “I won’t be taking much time to rest before I shoot my next film, but for some reason, rather than feeling tired, I’m full of new excitement. I’ll work hard to see you a lot this year.”

It’s still sorta hard to believe that drama producers expected us to believe that the clean ‘n classy Sohn Ye-jin could pass for a fashion-blind slob in Personal Taste — one desperately in need of some sparkle and polish by her supposedly-gay-but-really-just-metrosexual roommate — but then again, it’s also kinda hard to believe that it was convincing. (Remember this? And this? And this?) Sigh. I miss the Sohn Ye-jin/Lee Min-ho chemistry.

PT was the first time I saw Sohn Ye-Jin ever. And I really disliked her, well mostly her character and her looks. But on the other hand I didn't really got past the first few episodes.
And now whenever I see a post about her I always think who is this lady, and why wasn't SHE in PT.
Needless to say she is looking gorgeous in these pics, but I always wonder why Korean actresses try to look way younger then they are. By which I mean the big eyes, the way they pose in front of the camera. In some pics she really looks like a 16 year old.
What's wrong in looking beautiful as a grown woman?

The funny thing is when a drama tries to convince that the lead female character is ugly old-fashioned girl by making the other characters in the drama saying she is ugly and old-fashioned. While in fact the director or whoever in charge with the drama wardrobe has done nothing to make the character appearance looks ugly or old-fashioned.

I'm in my best time never looks as pretty as this "ugly" female character.

And if this "ugly" female character is old-fashioned, all this time I've been wearing fashion from Jurassic period.

Gorgeous actress, no doubt here.

She is so funny! I wonder if we'll get web detectives to figure out who that picture is of in the background of her with her puppy...it looks like a samurai, or maybe it's a painting? It's great to see "sel-ca" shots b/c you know there isn't any photoshop going on, I think she looks the best this way, au naturale. : )

Wishing her much success in filmlandia this year!

She's very purdy. She is a porcelain Korean doll.

I'm curious what that black mask can do.

The SYJ-LMH chemistry was surprisingly great in PT, though I was a bit skeptic before it aired because I wasn't so sure how the age difference would play out.

SYJ was brilliant as always, making something good of her role in spite of the writing and editing disaster that was PT. Interestingly, it seemed like then only second-time drama lead LMH made really good use of starring with such a great actress because he stepped up his performance more than I expected he could.

I'm still hoping SYJ gets to a drama/movie with Kang Ji-hwan, Yoo Ji-tae or Chun Jung-myung because that would be FREAKIN' AWESOME...

Ah...now I learned the truth of the word sel-cas, thanks.
Hmm..PT remember that scene? where he ran off to buy her stuff with wings for that day of the month and she wanted to stuff the thing in his suit, so cute.

How to distinguish between A list stars from B list? By the amount of income, popularity and award winning?

Sohn YeJin's friend Lee MinHo has about 3,000,000+ likes on facebook - so it is natural to see someone like her doing it... even better the page is administrated by her agency too

I LOVED Personal Taste. I don't care what anyone else says! It was wonderful. She completely convinced me she was a slob.

I can't believe how young she looks. She looks pretty here, but I think she looks much prettier in natural lighting! There is also an aura abt Son Ye Jin that you can't really capture on camera.
