#MetroBeautyWatch: Son Ye-Jin's Best Beauty Moments of 2020
Metro rounds up the top beauty looks she served throughout the year!
Since ‘Crash Landing on You’ premiered on Netflix in December 2019, we’ve been a little obsessed with the K-Drama’s female lead Son Ye-jin. (Well, fine, maybe not just a little.)
It’s safe to say that, for most of the year, we were either gushing over the times she slayed as Yoon Se-ri or waiting for news and updates on what’s coming up next for our Queen of Melodrama.
The global pandemic has largely made traveling difficult, limiting Son Ye-jin’s public appearances further; but, thankfully, the Internet blesses us with glimpses of the Metro’s Most Beautiful Korean Actresses when we’re done binge-watching CLOY for the nth time.
As Metro wraps up its biggest year in K-Drama yet, we’ve rounded up the best looks Son Ye-jin served throughout 2020. From CLOY to her numerous endorsements, red carpet appearances, Instagram updates, and more, here are our picks!

Of course, we lead with ‘Crash Landing’ and its heroine Yoon Se-ri who—no matter how little makeup she’s wearing—just looks stunning. Great skin, no-makeup makeup, dark long hair? Queen!

Indeed, less is more with our favorite K-Drama female lead. Who needs to make an effort when you have Son Ye-jin’s skin? She definitely kept us wanting to see more of her as the powerful CEO of Se-ri’s Choice.

While we’re used to seeing Se-ri without makeup while she was stuck in the North, watching her slowly become her old self throughout the series gave us such gorgeous looks—including this blotted bright lip moment!

By the end of CLOY’s 16 episodes, we’re convinced that Son Ye-jin is a goddess whose glowing skin cannot be achieved by mere mortals such as ourselves.

Can we just say that the way she glows in this photo with CLOY on-screen partner Hyun Bin is our favorite? Nothing like Son Ye-jin’s a #BinJin moment to give us life!

Shortly after CLOY’s run ended, it was announced that Son Ye-jin was nominated as Best Actress at the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards for her portrayal of Yoon Se-ri. In June, she slayed the red carpet and flaunted her signature glass skin on the red carpet—and we’re obsessed!

You can’t get any fresher than this! Glowing skin? Yes, we know her!

As the face of Korean beauty salon Jennyhouse, Son Ye-jin looked stunning with flowing waves and glowing makeup.

In another Jennyhouse campaign, she flipped the script and flaunted her usual fresh and carefree self.

Son Ye-jin virtually accepted her award for Best Hallyu Actress at the Seoul International Drama Awards in September—and while we would’ve killed to see her on the red carpet, we can’t get enough of her casual woke-up-like-this look in the video!

In October, Son Ye-jin was also launched as Smart Signature’s new muse where she joins Hyun Bin as the telco’s endorser. As usual, she’s as flawless as ever in their ads!

Son Ye-jin was a vision in black as new photos of her endorsement with Vanav Korea surfaced in October. We expect no less than the best skin from our queen, but we already knew she’s the most beautiful!

Just last November, she also looked stunning as a bride for Bride and You.

You have to admit, her skincare routine must be insane to look like this at 38 years old!

A year after CLOY hit Netflix, here’s Son Ye-jin still being the goddess she is—not a hair out of place, not a pore in sight.

We don't often see Ye-jin in a ponytail, but when she does, she always makes sure it's a statement. Here she is in a disheveled 'do for a Manyo Factory ad.
