Actress Seol In Ah is winning praise from fans after a touching moment on the July 25 episode of tvN’s Steel Unit Girl 2.
In the episode, Seol In Ah, along with Uee and Geum Sae Rok, took on intense training alongside some of Korea’s strongest female warriors. One of the missions that day was a high-pressure “quick reaction running” drill, where participants had to lie face-down and sprint at the sound of a whistle to grab a flag — with one person eliminated each round.
While waiting for the signal, Seol In Ah happened to glance over at the shoes of the participant next to her and innocently commented,
“She bought special shoes. I just noticed—they look a little different. Aren’t those special items? They’re kind of hanging off.”
The participant calmly explained,
“The sole is coming off. They’re old because I’ve worn them a lot.”
Realizing the situation, Seol In Ah immediately felt embarrassed and gave the participant a warm hug, saying,
“I’m so sorry. I’ll buy you new ones.”
And she kept her word.
Not long after, a photo surfaced showing the participant happily wearing the new pair of shoes gifted by Seol In Ah — a moment that moved many viewers.
Fans praised Seol In Ah for her sincerity, humility, and kindness, turning what could have been an awkward moment into a beautiful gesture of care.
