Popular South Korean actress Kim Yoo-jung (김유정) recently shared her morning habits, revealing that the first thing she does after waking up is submerge her face in ice water to reduce puffiness. The footage, once aired, left many viewers surprised.
Kim Yoo-jung's private morning life was unveiled in a special episode of KBS 2TV's “Love in the Moonlight” (구르미 그린 달빛) that aired on September 23. The night before, she had stayed up late chatting and eating ice cream with co-stars Park Bo-gum (박보검), B1A4's Jinyoung (진영), Chae Soo-bin (채수빈), and Kwak Dong-yeon (곽동연). Yet, the next morning, she woke up early and walked into the kitchen alone.
Kim Yoo-jung was seen filling a pot with water and ice cubes, then repeatedly submerging her entire face into the ice water, holding it for several seconds before lifting it out. This cold compress technique helps reduce facial swelling. The revelation of such an “extreme” beauty method greatly surprised viewers.
Born in 1999, Kim Yoo-jung debuted as a TV commercial model in 2003. She has grown from a child actress into a popular leading lady, consistently prioritizing her physique and daily skincare over the years.
Last November, she appeared on the YouTube channel “Fairy Jae Hyung” (요정재형) and discussed her past eating habits. Kim Yoo-jung revealed that her family members are all big eaters, and during her childhood, when her appetite was at its peak, she was often scolded by her family for eating too much, which made her feel quite wronged. “I’m naturally a big eater; for me, eating is everything. But after many diets and weight management efforts, I’ve actually lost the joy of eating,” she confessed.
Today, in addition to maintaining her figure, Kim Yoo-jung is also focusing on her acting projects. She is set to star in tvN's new weekend drama “One Hundred Days of Lies” (백일의 거짓말), launched to celebrate the network's 20th anniversary, which is scheduled to premiere on October 10.
