Bae Yoon Jung recently appeared on the KBS2 variety show "Problem Child in House", appearing on the Tuesday, Jan. 19, airing of the show. During the show, she was asked to pick who is the best dancer in South Korea. To that, Bae Yoon Jung revealed she actually gets asked this a lot, but nowadays, almost everyone can dance.
