One actress who was acknowledged for her resemblance to BLACKPINK’s Jisoo had just begun to gain notoriety for her roles in two 2015 series, House of Bluebird and Cheer Up!

The two celebrities earned attention for their resemblance eight years ago and have both risen in their respective career fields. Recently, it was revealed that the two stars would be fatefully brought together for a new acting project.

Actress Chae Soo Bin made her acting debut in 2014 and won awards for “Best New Actress” only a year later for her role in Cheer Up!
