Okay, but how many of you knew that Park Jin Joo can also sing?😍❤️ She sings like this in the era of bubble pop and Autotune. This is honestly what we call pure talent. I'm such a big fan of her and feel she is highly underappreciated artist. I hope she find immense success in her career as an actress and as a singer. First clip is her cover of Moana's title track which you will find in her official YouTube channel. The second one is from "king of mask singer the winner" The 3rd one is her cover of Whistle by BlackPink. 4th: when she was in king of the mask singer 3rd round. 5th and the last is from drama: Modern Farmers. Park JinJoo is an actress known for her various funny supporting and guest roles. The actress would be known by many K-Drama lovers as she appeared in many dramas as a supporting role. Her latest work was in hit tvn drama"Psycho but it's okay". She acted in many other dramas such as “Modern Farmer” (2014), “Reunited Worlds” (2017), and “While You Were Sleeping” (2017), “Encounter” (2018), "Her Private Life" (2019) and many more. _________________________________________________ #parkjinjoo #박진주 #kimsoohyun #seoyeji #psychobutitsokay #사이코지만괜찮아 #itsokaytobenotokay #hoteldelluna #herprivatelife #modernfarmers #whileyouweresleeping #encounter #backstreetrookie #thekingtheeternalmonarch #crashlandingonyou #conveniencestoresaetbyul #한국드라마 #드라마 #kdramas #kdrama #koreandramas #kdramalovers #kdramaaddict #kdramascenes #southkorean #flowerofevil #wheniwastheprettiest #dodosolsollalasol #iu #parkminyoung
