Miss seeing Seo Ye-Ji on screen after the end of It’s Okay To Not Be Okay? The South Korean actress recently made an appearance at the Buil Film Awards 2020 (one of the major events during the Busan International Film Festival 2020) to accept the Popular Star Award, and like her character Ko Mun Yeong in the series, she walked the red carpet in an eye-catching outfit.
Dressed in a corset gown from Australian designer Alex Perry‘s Autumn/Winter 2020 collection, she finished the look on a sparkly note with diamond earrings and rings from Boucheron. It was was one of our favourite red carpet moments of the year, that’s for sure.

“Assalamualaikum. Please pray for me, a person who has made many mistakes in the past, so that I’ll be persistent in my efforts to be a better person. Please pray that in this new journey that I’m embarking on, I will always be in God’s blessing and providence,” she says in a press statement.
Many celebrities—including Siti Nurhaliza and Ramona ZamZam—have voiced their support, as well as fans who have expressed their admiration towards her.

Hill to Street is the latest homegrown jewellery brand to know
View this post on Instagram
Malaysian artisanal jewellery brand Hill to Street has announced a new festive collection as part of its collaboration with local personality and model Anuja Ananthan. Strong yet delicate, and creative yet strategic, each piece portrays a different narrative, and they’re a celebration of the multi-faceted woman.
The collection exudes Rajasthan royal elegance with its use of exquisite Onyx and gorgeous Peridot gems (Anuja’s birthstone), and some of our favourites include the studded cuff bracelets and festive drop earrings (just in time for the annual Deepavali celebrations). The pièce de résistance, however, is the choker necklace dubbed Neelkanth, meaning ‘blue throat’. The combination of rich dark blue Lapis Lazuli stones next to light Moonstones highlights the vibrant dynamism, and the piece truly represents Anuja’s love of ethnic jewellery and the brand’s handcrafted artistry.
In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a portion of the proceeds from the sales will be donated to the National Cancer Society Malaysia.
