A dazzling mirage. A lost child. The devil. All of the above points to Baek Ah-jin in Dear X, as portrayed by the enchanting Kim Yoo-jung. In this thrilling webtoon adaptation currently streaming on HBO Max, we get to know Ah-jin, who overcomes her tormentors as a child and climbs her way to success as a rising actress. She will stop at nothing to reach her goals, that includes using her allies of men who have fallen under her spell (starring an ensemble cast of Kim Young-dae and Kim Do-hoon as well as Hwang In-youp and Kim Ji-hoon).
With a stacked cast and storytelling that leaves viewers on the edge of their seats, Dear X has been quite the feast for the eyes. Stellar performances aside, Ah-jin’s wardrobe changes flit between femme fatale and celebrity It girl, often accentuating her dark psychopathic tendencies with every scene-stealing moment. It’s hard not to be enraptured by our main character, even as a viewer clearly attuned to her evil schemes and tricks.
The script flips the instance Ah-jin gets her first taste of fame; we no longer see the helpless girl in the first few episodes but rather, see her confidence and armour come through with the fashion choices in Dear X. Of Balmain structured dresses, Weekend Max Mara shirting and many a voluminous gown whenever a red carpet event comes knocking.
