‘Squid Game’ Star Hoyeon Makes Venice Film Festival Red Carpet Debut With Cate Blanchett

As a fan, I can’t help but be utterly captivated by Hoyeon’s meteoric rise to fame! From her humble beginnings as a model in South Korea to gracing the red carpet at prestigious events like the Venice Film Festival, she has proven that she is more than just a pretty face.


Although she first gained recognition through a minor part in Netflix’s blockbuster series, “Squid Game,” South Korean actress Hoyeon exuded the charm of a silver screen icon as she graced the red carpet for the first time at the Venice Film Festival on Thursday.

Today, Hyeon – a renowned figure in her native land, who initially made her mark as a model and later transitioned into acting – opted for an eye-catching ensemble by Louis Vuitton. The red silk gown, adorned with intricate embroidery and boasting a dramatic draped neckline, was accessorized with pieces from the high jewelry collection of Louis Vuitton, such as the Galaxie Monogram earrings and two L’Elan Vital rings. This daring outfit might not have come as a shock to those who have kept tabs on her fashion journey, given her role as an ambassador for Louis Vuitton.

This year, Hoyeon graced the Lido stage following her prominent role in Alfonso Cuáron’s upcoming Apple TV+ miniseries titled Disclaimer. In this production, Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline are the main stars, and during a red carpet event, Hoyeon was seen arm-in-arm with the Academy Award-winning actress. As she appeared, young festival attendees stationed along the red carpet enthusiastically cheered. Upon joining Blanchett for the photographers, the crowd went wild. Following the screening of the first four episodes, the theater audience responded with a prolonged standing ovation.

Two years ago, during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter prior to the Emmy Awards, Hoyeon expressed her affection for Louis Vuitton. She shared, “I was well acquainted with Nicolas Ghesquière from my modeling days, and I admired his designs because I believed they perfectly blended modernity with antiquity.” She added, “What also captivated me is his inspiration drawn from art and the careful attention he gives to the construction of his outfits. I’ve always aspired to collaborate with Louis Vuitton due to his unique design philosophy. Simply put, it’s Louis Vuitton!”
