Jin Seo-yeon Reveals Jeju Life and Shocking Past as Online Mall CEO on 'Baekban Tour'

Actress Jin Seo-yeon will unveil her unique life in Jeju and a surprising past on TV CHOSUN's 'Baekban Tour with Heo Young-man'.

Now in her third year living in Jeju, Jin Seo-yeon shared that she initially moved to the island for her child's education but ended up staying longer, captivated by the serene beaches and oreums (volcanic cones).

Contrary to her chic and sophisticated image, Jin Seo-yeon revealed a down-to-earth side, driving a truck and comfortably enjoying saunas with local Jeju 'samchuns' (a term for middle-aged men or women). She is known among her neighbors as 'Jeju's Leader Jin' for always being there when someone needs help.

Viewers will also learn about Jin Seo-yeon's unexpected past as the CEO of an online shopping mall that once achieved a monthly revenue of 40 million won. Despite her business success, she left it all behind, driven by an unwavering passion for acting, stating, "I want to act even if I only earn 500 won for a piece of bread."

The episode will also feature Jin Seo-yeon's rigorous self-discipline, including building a six-pack in four months for a role and completing a triathlon. She will also discuss her chemistry with co-stars Kim Hee-sun and Han Hye-jin in the drama 'Finally, My Love', describing their on-set relationship as warm as that of real sisters.
