Who is Jeon Jong-seo, the South Korean actress who made Dodgers stars go viral for their hilarious reaction to her first pitch? Netflix star loves Kylian Mbappe and earned rave reviews in Hollywood

Jeon Jong-seo is a South Korean actress who threw out her first pitch during a Los Angeles Dodgers preseason game in Seoul over the weekend.

The Dodgers’ reaction to the actress wearing a team jersey and standing on the pitcher’s mound in tight pants went viral.

Several Dodgers couldn’t take their eyes off Jong-seo as she made her delivery to the plate, including Freddie Freeman, Ryan Brasier and Gavin Stone.

Dodgers pitcher Landon Knack also went to the mound to take a photo with Jong-seo after throwing out the pitch before a game against the Kiwoom Heroes.

Who is Jong-seo beyond his first viral pitch?

Jong-seo is an accomplished actress

Jong-seo rose to fame after starring in the 2018 film “Burning,” with the film being nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

In 2020, Jong-seo starred in “The Call,” which won her the Best Actress award at the 57th Baeksang Arts Awards, South Korea’s equivalent of the Academy Awards.

In recent years, she also starred in a film called “Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon” as well as the Netflix series “Money Heist: Korea — Joint Economic Area.”

Since starring in “The Call”, she has been dating the film’s director, Lee Chung-hyun.

Jong-seo is a big fan of Kylian Mbappé

According to photos posted by Jong-seo on Instagram, she is a big fan of Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe.

Jong-seo posted photos of herself in her swimsuit during her stay in France in January.

What Jong-seo thinks of Mbappe’s potential upcoming move to Paris for Real Madrid is unclear.

Mbappe is one of the best football players in the world and, at just 25 years old, he scored five goals in the World Cup final, becoming only the second male player to accomplish this feat after England’s Geoff Hurst in 1966 .

Jong-seo’s future crossover to America

After “Parasite,” a South Korean film, became the first foreign-language film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2020, new opportunities in Hollywood may open up for Jong-seo.

Now, with his crossover with the Dodgers, American interest has never been greater in Jong-seo.

She currently stars in the South Korean TV show “Wedding Impossible”.

Jong-seo will turn 30 in July.
