“Boys Over Flowers” sidekick starlet Kim So-eun is a sexy feature for the March issue of Elle Korea. Far from the sweet, clean Ga-eul character from the drama, this pictorial has all the fans asking, “Ga-eul Yang, is that you?”

Elle staff were even delightfully puzzled by the transformation, “Not only did she become more beautiful, but she’s coming out as a mature young woman,” and then asking, “How could she change like that?”

To accompany the provocative photo spread, in this issue’s interview, Kim So-eun honestly shares about her everyday life and family as a (famous) girl in her 20’s.

Even from the two photos that Elle released for advertising purposes are getting me excited to see more of this young actress’s modeling gigs.
