Kim Yu-rim, crowned Miss Universe Korea 2026, shared glimpses of her unassuming daily life ahead of her appearance at the world pageant this November.

Captured at a gopchang (grilled beef intestines) restaurant in Seongsu-dong, her appearance that day showed none of the glamorous tiara and commanding charisma of the stage. Instead, she was seen savoring her food at an ordinary restaurant, wearing a bright smile. In Kim Yu-rim, who had briefly set down the weight of the crown, one could glimpse the depth of time she has steadily built while quietly holding her ground.

After a long period of preparation, Kim Yu-rim, who finally claimed the crown, will now take the stage at the Miss Universe world pageant in Puerto Rico as South Korea's representative. How her genuine journey and ordinary moments—beyond the glamorous title—will shine on the world stage is drawing keen attention.
