Top Actress’s Mother-In-Law Goes Viral For Her Reaction To Seeing BTS’s V
Actress Jun Ji Hyun (also known as Gianna Jun) is undoubtedly one of Korea’s most beloved actresses. With mega-hit works like My Love From The Star and Assassination, the actress has been “viral” since her debut in 1997.
This time, though, it’s her mother-in-law who is going viral!
Married in April 2021, the actress has kept her non-celeb husband, Choi Joon Hyuk, out of the spotlight. On the other hand, Lee Chung Woo (Choi’s mother and Jun’s mother-in-law) is a renowned fashion designer with a following of her own—and her Instagram has been revealed to the public for a while.
On April 1, 2024 (KST), following the 2024 Hana Bank K League 1 soccer match where BTS‘s V was spotted with his legion, Lee shared an Instagram Stories update…
…praising the idol’s “visuals.”
#V at a K-League match today for team #GangwonFC
I didn’t know visuals like this was possible while serving in the military
Guessing K-Army has made some stellar improvements!

The update soon began circulating online, receiving a ton of attention for how “relatable” it is. Koreans chimed in with Jun’s mother-in-law and agreed that V is a stunner—all the while pointing out what a “hip” and “cool” mother-in-law she is.
- “So she likes them handsome… LOL. We have the same taste in men!”
- “She has good taste, haha.”
- “She’s actually an ARMY. She went to one of the tours, too.”
- “V is, indeed, f*cking handsome. Looks like the MIL knows what’s up! Haha.”
- “I found her other post to be even funnier. A MIL stanning her DIL?!”
- “Great taste.”
- “What the heck, LMAO.”
- “She knows what’s good, hahaha.”
Jun Ji Hyun’s mother-in-law has never been shy to acknowledge her. In March 2023, following the news of Jun Ji Hyun’s casting in the upcoming spy romance K-Drama, The North Star, alongside actor Kang Dong Won, the mother-in-law made sure that the news was heard loud and clear.
MY FAVORITE PAIRING! I can’t wait…

As of March 25, 2024, it was rumored that Jun Ji Hyun began shooting The North Star. On March 28, 2024, the production team for the K-Drama clarified that a small meeting had taken place and that the official shoot will begin sometime in April 2024.
