Age 28, a reporter for a third rate newspaper,
Covering ‘relationship’ scandal news.
A quick glance at her makes you think she’s smart, but a second look, and she’s clumsy.
Another look would make you think she’s absurd, but makes you laugh when you turn around.
She once dreamed of being an author like Jane Austen.
But in a world where literature doesn’t ‘feed’ you, this is a far away dream that she doesn’t dare dream about.
In the end, with the writing skills that swept writing contests,
And photography skills that she trained as a fangirl for H.O.T.,
She became a reporter of relationship scandals. It doesn’t matter if people look down on her,
Saying that a ‘third rate paparazzi’ isn’t even a reporter.
For her father, who is in a nursing home because of his dementia,
She must earn money like crazy.
Her father’s dream is to walk her down the aisle at her wedding… but she doesn’t have time to build a relationship
When she’s busy digging through other peoples’ love lives.
Thinking only about breaking news and bonus pay, working day and night digging through Kwon Yul’s relationship rumors,
She unexpectedly gets herself into the the middle of them.
Dajung, who is ‘accused’ against her will of climbing the social ladder,
from a third class reporter to the wife of the Prime Minister!
When will she get rid of this unwelcome title of ‘Cinderella’?
On December 2nd, organizers of the “2013 Women’s Film Festival” announced that Girls’ Generation’s Sooyoung, who has been identified for her various talents as a singer, actress, and MC, will be the sole host for the “2013 Women’s Film Festival”. As a woman in the film industry herself, Sooyoung accepted the offer to host this year’s “2013 Women’s Film Festival” without hesitation, despite her busy schedule.
A source explained, “It’s uncommon for a female star to host ordinary award ceremonies alone, so this will become a place where Sooyoung’s talents as an MC can be identified.”
The “2013 Women’s Film Festival” will be held on December 5th, starting at 4 PM KST.

She later wonders what actress Lee Boyoung’s newlywed life is like; to this, Lee Boyoung replies that she hasn’t experienced much yet, but she is more comfortable and reassured than previously. Sooyoung’s parting words are, “‘Elle’ readers, I, Girls’ Generation’s Sooyoung, have participated in this charity photoshoot. After you read it, I hope that we can share a warm heart together.”

This video is a perfect example of one of these moments, so sit back and let our nine angels grace us with their heavenly smiles one more time.
