The South Korean star rocked up to the ceremony wearing a pastel Louis Vuitton look, complete with a slit revealing the entire length of the actor/model’s stunning leg. With her hair cut in a short bob, she completed the bedazzled look with a luxurious hairpin tying the outfit together.

Jung is nominated at the ceremony for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her performance in the hit series, which celebrates its one-year anniversary on Sept. 17. She plays Sae-Byeok in the show, marking one of four acting nominations Squid Game has earned at the Primetime Emmys. 

Lee Jung-jae is up for Outstanding Lead Actor for his role as Seong Gi-hun, and both O Yeong-su and Park Hae-soo are up for Outstanding Supporting Actor for their respective roles as Oh Il-nam and Cho Sang-woo respectively.

The series is up for 14 Emmys overall and has already taken home four of them, including Lee Yoo-Mi winning for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series. The show is up for Outstanding Drama Series, facing off against Better Call Saul, Succession, and Stranger Things to name a few. Even if the show wins no further Emmys, we’ll still see the cast on our screens as a selection of the stars are set to present at the ceremony.

The Emmys come at a big time for Lee Jung-jae, who has just been announced as the male lead in the forthcoming Star Wars series, The Acolyte.
