29-year-old actress Kim Yong Ji has an elegant face worthy of beauty campaigns. It has a sophisticated and foxy quality that made her magnetic in The King: Eternal Monarch, and it's these same features that are also perfect as a gumiho in the upcoming K-drama Tale of Gumiho. It’s not surprising that the star was once a model and still carries that stylish bearing with her on the set of her dramas.

We all know that the way she carries her clothes makes your eyes focus on her on cam, but did you know that she has an equally cool sense of style off screen? Scrolling through her Instagram @demi_kimee will make any fashion girl envious of her 'fits.
Yong-ji has a penchant for menswear, and there is no oversized utilitarian jacket, pullover, or pair of cargo pants she can’t pull off. She also knows how to layer her gold chains with trendy beaded necklaces in a way that’s undeniably in vogue.
Below we round up 10 outfits from the actress you should definitely try if you’re obsessed with streetwear.
A black button-down paired with denim bermudas can be quite a boring, but Kim Yong-ji pairs it cooly with black sneakers and scrunched up black socks.
The Gabrielle Chanel crossbody bag also dresses up the look.

Not a fan of white on white? Yong-ji suggests to gradiate your look subtly by pairing a light gray sweater with your white joggers.
We also love the subtle injection of logos on this look that’s perfect for anyone who’s not too keen on obnoxious prints.

She’s definitely convinced us to buy a sleeveless vest!
This look is definitely referencing that school boy who’s just finished with exams and is ready to hit the club with those flared denims.
We equally love this other sweater vest look she paired with high-waisted loose pants and a checkered snapback.
Her minimalist gold chain and hoop earrings elevate this casual look, and the overall earthy color story is as cool as it gets.
Again, Kim Yong Ji shows you how a double denim OOTD can benefit from pop of color.
This denim on denim look is one for the books, and the clever choice of the coral shirt underneath is a great way to punctuate an full-on navy look.
Beanies seem to be Yong Ji’s headgear of choice.
We love how she adds this pastel touch to her otherwise dreary color scheme, livening up an understated casual ‘fit.
The actress seems to have a very genderless approach to dressing.
In this menswear lewk, she opts for oversized pieces in gray and bright blue. It's clear that she loves to add a statement hue to a predominantly neutral-toned look.
This outfit would convince anyone to get themselves a neon jacket.
An otherwise black-and-white look, the actress makes a bold choice with her highlighter yellow windbreaker. Again she accents her look with a beanie, Stussy shorts and gray socks. So. Cool.
If you’re still wary of wearing color, may we suggest wearing it around your neck instead, the way Yong Ji does.
This black and white 'fit is made more fun with a beaded choker that puts the F-U-N in her cozy-chic getup.
Yong Ji also tries her hand at normcore but keeps it street.
Her straight-cut ripped denims are styled cuffed atop white sneakers, while her red baseball cap adds color to the white-washed look.
