In BTS’s musical career, their music videos have very rarely featured female actors, especially after the LOVE YOURSELF Highlight Reel. Since then, the group has almost completely removed female roles from their storytelling. Instead, they shifted toward more abstract, artistic imagery, moving away from traditional male–female romance storylines.
Because of that, songs like Boy In Luv, Just One Day, and War of Hormone have become precious relics of BTS’s early era — a rare period when the group brought intense teenage romance to the screen. In particular, when rewatching the Boy In Luv MV, ARMYs can still feel that original excitement of seeing the BTS boys, still teenagers back then, boldly expressing their feelings toward their “high school crush.”
And BTS’s very first “crush” was none other than Go So Hyun (also known as Go So Mi), who ranked in the top 5 of кσяєα's Next Top Model Season 3 in 2012.
In the MV, Go So Hyun plays a high school student with a cold, calm, and slightly aloof beauty. She appears as the center of attention — the kind of female lead that makes every boy compete to express his feelings. The most iconic moments include Jin seemingly “losing his mind” over her, even singing to her and giving her a rose.
What’s notable is that after many years, BTS’s first “crush” now appears to be returning to the screen through a dating show — and this time, she isn’t acting out a romance but actually looking for real love. She was recently introduced as a “catfish” (a contestant suddenly joining mid-season) in Episode 5 of the rising dating show Noona Is a Woman to Me.
Even with only a few teaser images revealed so far, her visuals have already gone viral online. She looks elegant and gentle, yet she still carries a unique charisma and a bright, captivating smile.
Compared to her rebellious student look in a school uniform and dyed blonde hair in Boy In Luv, her current style is completely different. But fans believe this upgraded version of her is perfect. Netizens even joke that she’s no longer just BTS’s “first crush”—she’s now the ideal type of many people, including the male contestants on the show.
After working with BTS, Go So Hyun also appeared in several other music videos, including Clazziquai Project’s Love Satellite, DEAN’s Bonnie & Clyde, INFINITE’s Inconvenient Truth, and VIXX Leo’s Blossom Tears. However, since she entered the industry as a model, she later focused more on her main career as a fashion model and commercial model for various brands. Go has been signed as an exclusive model with Esteem Entertainment for many years.
Her Instagram account, previously public, has now been switched to private — believed to be a clear sign that she is joining the dating show as an official contestant. Most popular кσяєαn dating programs such as Single’s Inferno, Transit Love, and Heart Signal follow this practice for their high-profile male and female participants.
Not only does Go So Hyun boast an impressive professional profile and striking visuals, she also stands out academically. She was introduced as having stu∂ιєd Computer Engineering at Ewha Womans University — one of the most prestigious women’s universities in кσяєα. This further reinforces her image as both intelligent and dynamic.
That’s why all eyes are now on her and her performance in the next episode. Will this beautiful noona find love with a younger man, or will she remain single? Tune in to the show to find out the final answer!
