Actress Kim Yoon-jin is about to have a moment in the spotlight as a Hollywood fashion icon. Kim, who stars in the hit American TV drama "Lost", is preparing for a photo shoot on Monday for fashion magazine InStyle. The American magazine is held in high regard by fashion leaders all over the world, with the U.S. edition especially focused on Hollywood celebrities and their personal styles. The photos will document Kim's beauty secrets and her fashion sense in a four-page article. The shoot will take place in a Los Angeles studio and at outdoor locations.
Kim is a popular subject in U.S. magazines, having appeared in "STUFF", "US Weekly", and "Glamour". She is celebrated for her understated style including her tasteful use of make-up. The "Lost" star was selected as one of the 22 most beautiful women in the world by MSN last month, and she ranked 88th in a list of the 100 sexiest women by STUFF, one notch above Lindsay Lohan. She has also appeared on the top American talk shows including "The David Letterman Show" and ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live".
Kim's agent said, "The days when Kim struggled to get her face known are over. This year's goal is to increase her popularity in the U.S. and really get her on the star track". After the shoot is finished in early May, she'll return to Korea. After a two-year break from Korean acting gigs, Kim will return in the movie "Seven Days".
