Go Yoon Jung Often Paired with Older Actors, Fans Protest

The name Go Yoon Jung has recently become a topic of conversation among Korean netizens. Not because of her captivating acting, but because her co-stars in several recent dramas are considered visually and age-wise mismatched.

This discussion has been lively on the online forum Theqoo, where K-Drama fans often voice their opinions openly. One user started a topic by mentioning that the male actors who act alongside Go Yoon Jung seem "ordinary" compared to the actress's charm.

Not only the visuals, the stark age difference has also become a major point of concern. Netizens feel that this kind of pairing disrupts the viewing experience.
