Actor Jeon So‑young, who wowed viewers with flawless visual chemistry alongside Baek Seon‑ho in her previous work If Wishes Could Kill, is now drawing explosive attention for her on‑screen synergy with Park Ji‑hoon in her latest drama.
In episode 4 of the tvN Monday–Tuesday drama The Legend of Kitchen Soldier (hereafter ‘Kitchen Soldier’), which aired on the 19th, military TV reporter Jung Min‑a (played by Jeon So‑young) dashes straight to the lead Kang Sung‑jae (played by Park Ji‑hoon), throws her arms around him, and then gently cups his cheeks.
After the scene dropped, online communities and social media lit up with reactions like, "Both have harmless, bunny‑like visuals—the aesthetic just clicks," "I never expected this combo, but their chemistry is insane," and "I thought I was watching a military drama, then suddenly it felt like a fresh high‑teen youth series."
Signaling even more dazzling face‑card synergy between the two, ‘Kitchen Soldier’ airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 p.m. KST on tvN and is also available to stream on TVING.
