Jang Yoon-ju - 'I Lived And Breathed Fashion'

We’re not exaggerating when we say that Jang Yoon-ju is a creative force that has almost done it all – she began modelling in 1997 and rose the ranks to become one of South Korea’s most successful models. In her 25-year career, she has posed with the likes of Kate Moss and Carla Bruni, and became a resident host and judge of Korea’s Next Top Model. And that’s not where Jang’s talents end – over the years, she has co-authored a book, won a Best Radio DJ award, and released her own music albums including Dream and I’m Fine. After dabbling in television and appearing in popular South Korean shows such as Running Man and Knowing Bros, Jang sealed her status as an actress-to-watch in 2020 when she landed a starring role in the critically acclaimed film, Three Sisters. Now, Jang is set to appear in Netflix’s Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area, a South Korean series based on the hit Spanish crime drama series, Money Heist.
