12 Facts About Seo Ji-hye That The CLOY-Obsessed Would Love To Know
Aside from her obvious onscreen charm, there's so much to like about this Korean beauty!
Crash Landing on You has ended, and it's officially the highest-rating tvN drama series of all time, surpassing 2016's Goblin for the record during its mid-February finale. Hundreds of thousands of fans across the globe are squealing as their newest obsession broke records and the actors behind the characters that breathed life into the story enjoy further success.
Leading cast members Hyun Bin, Son Ye-jin, Kim Jong-hyun, and Seo Ji-hye are definitely celebrating behind the scenes, too, but even after the show has come to a close, CLOY's most die hard viewers continue to search for more about their K-Drama idols to fawn over.
Here, we're highlighting Seo Ji-hye, one fourth of the love square that made CLOY a pleasure to watch unfold, and whose turbulent love story but essential supporting role make her worthy of admiration. (No spoilers here for those who have yet to jump on the CLOY bandwagon!).

Seo Ji-hye is a Virgo! She was born on August 24, 1986.
When she's not working on a new film or series, she's more than happy to spend a day with a cuppa and a good book. That's because she's an avid reader whose other low-key hobbies keep her happy as a homebody.
That's not to say she's unadventurous, though! This actress also does her fair share of exploring, and she's particularly fond of taking her quiet time to the beach or by the pool where she can relax with a good read.
She's been acting since her late teens, and it's a dream she's wanted ever since. Becoming a star was always a goal of hers and she even graduated from the Sungkyunkwan University where she was formally trained in acting.
As her career went on an upward trajectory, she earned a reputation for portraying female characters that are rather unlikable and cold. However, she's explained that what she is in real life couldn't be farther from the kinds of roles she plays!
She's a simple dresser. With her success, it's easy to imagine her as an all-out fashionista, but in truth, she's way more comfortable in her sneakers, jeans, and cozy jackets or sweaters, rather than bring dressed in head-to-toe luxury and fashionable outfits. The same goes for her beauty looks; she's all about bare-face finishes and fuss-free hair, and usually just chooses a pop of color for her lips and a swish of eyeliner on days when she needs to get dolled up.
If you're only just discovering her now, you should definitely check out the movie "Voice," which is her first big screen project that launched her career, and "Heart Surgeons," her K-Drama that cemented her name in the industry. The two are a must-watch for her biggest fans.
Describing her "Crash Landing On You" character Seo Dan, she emphasized that this role is all about hiding flaws under a fragile image of perfection, making the fictional character relatable to many.
She already has a next project lined up: a series titled "Shall We Have Dinner Tonight?" where she'll be playing a jaded young woman who (hopefully) finds it in herself to be able to fall in love again.
She's single. Though she's kept her personal life relatively safe from the prying eyes of the public and the press, it's assumed that she isn't in a serious relationship or dating anyone at the moment.
On "Crash Landing On You," she was outfitted in numerous designer labels thanks to her character, a fashionable business heiress. Eagle-eyed fans of the show spotted her decked out in Tod's, Alexander McQueen, Valentino, Ports 1961, and Black Muse.
She's won awards for her acting in "The Moon and Stars for You," "Punch," and "Don't Dare to Dream," which only means that these movies and series should be next in line for any Seo Ji-hye fanatic.
