That girl is legendary. Je suis allé revoir l'extrait après avoir lu ce commentaire. edit: episode 2, 11:30-13:45. That's how Bang Wool ascended to the Beolgoopo's Sashimi of legend.

Also, Jang Man-wol from Hotel Del Luna.

la génialisme Park Hoo-ja dans My Fellow Citizens
Ji Soo-Hyun dans Big Issue
Kang Sun-ah dans Goodbye wife
la FL dans Sell Your Haunted House
