Why is IVE An Yujin so loved in South Korea? In an article, a Korean media outlet revealed the reasons.
Recently, the media outlet Sports Kyunghyang released an article featuring the fourth-gen star and IVE leader, An Yujin.
The writing highlighted the positive reactions of South Koreans after Yujin was selected as the new CF model of the popular local coffee brand, Maxim.
This added to the list of numerous brands she's advertising for including Dongwon Tuna, Hana Financial Group, Mardi, SUNHARI, NEPA, Clio and Fendi.
Looking at the list, fans were shocked that although Yujin has only been an idol for about 6 years, she has bagged deals from some of the most-coveted brands that only top-tier actresses or senior idols could even imagine having.
Regardless of this, no one is complaining and most of his deals were successful and well-supported not only by DIVEs (fandom) but even the ordinary consumers.

As a result, the media outlet revealed some of the reasons why she is gaining high public favorability.
The article first highlighted the impact of her appearance in the popular tvN entertainment show, "Earth Arcade." Here, she had shown her easy-going personality, sense and wit.
Her personality won the hearts of several generations, ranging from elementary, middle and high school students to their parents.
Another reason is her visuals that are on par with professional models. She has a perfect look, tall height and cool facial features, the embodiment of "natural beauty."
As a top-notch idol who didn't limit her fame to one fandom and established herself as well as a popular personality, advertisers were giving her a lot of love call and is known for being a "no one could be better than this" ad model.
In fact, even luxury brands outside Korea such as Fendi were mesmerized by her natural yet luxurious aura that could easily digest fashion items, may it be beauty products, outfits, or household goods.
In the same article, some of the comments that netizens unanimously agreed with about Yunjin were added, such as:
- "She's a smart person with a strong ego and self-centeredness."
- "She plays like crazy, but she's the smart type who never shows up late for school and completes her work by submitting assignments regularly."
- "If there is a daughter like that in my family, it would be a waste to get her into a marriage, and if I have a younger sister like her, I would be so proud and would want to do more for her."
Meanwhile, An Yujin entered the K-pop scene with her appearance in Mnet's survival audition program, "PRODUCE 48" in 2018.
She secured the fifth spot and debuted in a girl group called IZ*ONE. After they disbanded, Yujin re-debuted under Starship's girl group IVE and is now serving as the team's leader.
Since their debut, they maintained their status as fourth-gen leader with consecutive hits, "ELEVEN," "LOVE DIVE," "After LIKE," "I AM," "Kitsch," "Baddie," and "HEYA."
