Actress Jung Soo-bin is gaining attention for her ‘Seulgi’s acting that is perfect for the girl thriller genre.

Jung Soo-bin is meeting viewers in the STUDIO X+U drama ‘Good Competition’ as Woo Seul-gi, who leads the mystery narrative.

Before transferring to Chaehwa Girls‘ High School, Woo Seul-gi had never missed out on being first in the entire school. She may seem like a natural talent, but this is the result of her desperate efforts to survive. As Woo Seul-gi’s report card numbers, who had been treated like nothing her entire life, naturally stopped being bullied by her friends. This is why Woo Seul-gi began studying for survival.

However, the walls of Chaehwa Girls‘ High School, home to the top 1% of students in Korea, were high. In particular, Woo Seul-gi faces turbulent emotions as she becomes entangled with Yoo Je-i (played by Lee Hye-ri), the envy of everyone and the real power in the school. Woo Seul-gi is suspicious of Yoo Je-yi, who is full of suspicious things, but still holds his hand.

Between friendship and desire, Woo Seul-gi was elected as class president at Yoo Je-yi’s recommendation. Naturally, Yoo Je-yi was the one behind the transfer student being chosen for the executive position that gives extra points for college entrance exams. In the midst of the stormy development, Woo Seul-gi also took full advantage of Yoo Je-yi‘s position to lead the game in her own way. The precarious relationship between the two, which seems both sincere and obsessive, stands out.

In this way, Jung Soo-bin is receiving favorable reviews for delicately portraying Woo Seul-gi’s confusion, who is suddenly thrown into a fierce college entrance exam competition, with her subtly trembling eyes, facial expressions, and gestures. With detailed acting that adds strength to the mystery narrative, the anticipation for his future activities is even greater.

Thanks to Jung Soo-bin‘s great acting, ‘Good Competition’ announced a successful start by taking the number 1 spot in the all-time number of views among U+tv and U+mobile tv original dramas. ‘Good Competition’ is released every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday at midnight on U+tv and U+mobile tv.
