喜欢韩国流行文化的观众对于郑氏姐妹肯定非常熟悉，郑秀妍（Jessica）和郑秀晶（Krystal）在韩国娱乐圈同胞血亲排名第一。

出众的外形和稳重的台风，郑氏姐妹也被称为冰山公主。郑秀妍曾公开表示过，很喜欢这个称号。

当两人同为SM娱乐公司艺人的时候，两姐妹曾在演唱会上同台演出。在2014年，郑秀妍和郑秀晶合作了姐妹俩的第一个真人秀《Jessica & Krystal》，当时郑秀妍与SM娱乐公司正处于“分手”边缘。

在真人秀中，郑氏姐妹共处一室，安装众多摄像机，24小时观察两人的一举一动。粉丝们第一次有机会近距离观察两姐妹的日常相处，两人互开玩笑，还互黑。

当然也存在一些让人动容，比较情绪化的时刻。在第一季的最后一集中，郑秀晶向姐姐袒露自己的沮丧和无助，同作为女爱豆的姐姐完全能理解妹妹的感受，并给予安慰。

对于两姐妹难得的合体出演，有些粉丝表示两人综艺感一般，不是特别好笑。私底下和舞台上个性十分相似，有时候都忍不住快进。

在第一季中，姐姐Jessica答应会多抽出时间陪伴妹妹Krystal。在过去的5年中，两人频繁互动，相互陪伴，彼此鼓励。

近日，郑氏姐妹在接受印度尼西亚《ELLE》杂志采访时透露了两人的未来工作计划。郑秀妍向粉丝们透露，《Jessica & Krystal》第二季即将来袭，两人正在在准备录制真人秀。

目前还没有透露更多消息，有可能叫《Jessica & Krystal》第二季，也可能是其他名字及不同的节目形式。但不管如何变化，都是专属于郑氏姐妹两人的节目：Jessica & Krystal 20。

作为少女时代的前成员，郑秀妍已经在解约后将工作重心转移到海外。去年与美国经纪公司United Talent Agency签约，加上之前韩流偶像的影响力，在美国人气颇高。

工作量和曝光量肯定不及少女时代时期，但是线下工作质量不错，而且在YouTube跟不少知名新媒体合作，评论反响也很好。

郑秀晶在2013年与李敏镐、朴信惠、金宇彬合演的《继承者们》，让这部电视剧和剧中的演员都大火了一把。之后又参演了多部影视作品，但做主角的机会不多。加上这几年f(x)的发展停滞，对于郑秀晶的处境略显尴尬。

近期疑似郑秀晶长胖和f(x)有望合体的消息频频上热搜，就说明粉丝们并没有忘记她，没有忘记她们的组合。未来发展如何尚不明确，但《Jessica & Krystal》第二季的来袭无疑是个振奋人心的好消息。

英文名：JESSICA

本名：郑秀妍

是少女时代的主唱兼金发担当，声音尖细、高亢，辨识度超高。海豚音非常动听。

虽然有“冰山公主”的绰号，实际上是一位外冷内热的女孩

在美国出生的她，说得一口流利的英语，做事认真、努力，有时不太擅长表达自

己，容易流泪。

注：与f(x)成员Krystal郑秀晶是亲生姐妹。

　　12岁的Jessica在与妹妹和妈妈在韩国逛街的时候被SM公司的星探发现，于是进入了SM公司当练习生。但是公司一开始并没让Jessica参与练习，因为Jessica害怕镜头，于是公司跟Jessica说，先回去适应镜头，等到不再害怕镜头了再来公司练习。。一段时间后，Jessica克服了“镜头恐惧症”后才正式开始练习

　　Jessica是少女时代里面训练时间最长的成员，在网络上曝光的漂亮自拍使她成为SM练习生里面关注度最高的女训练生之一。以至于在练习生时期就有了自己的FAN CLUB。Jessica的人缘是出名的好，不论和同公司的男生还是女生都玩得很好。

　　刚出道的两年，Jessica走的并不顺利，07年出道，但是却因为与韩国当红男子团体东方神起金在中和SJ李东海的三角恋绯闻而招致了许多ANTI。许多人在网上留言骂她，面对这些留言，才19岁的她没有做出回应。没有人知道她那段时期是如何熬过的，只有Jessica的好友朴敏英事后爆料说西卡给她打电话哭诉：“姐姐，不是那样的，真的不是那样的。”再加上上节目时经常无表情，被FANS们称为“冰山公主”，却被人们看作是高傲的姿态而招致ANTI。

　　08年对于Jessica和少女时代来说都是最黑暗的日子，因为一些她们犯的错和一些谣言引起许多人的不满。首先在dream concert上遭遇了黑海，其他家的许多FANS都关闭了荧光棒来抵制她们，她们仍然笑着完成了表演。就在黑海事件发生的几个月后，在SM家族演唱会-中国站上，她们再次遭遇了黑海。在之后的几个月内，原本身材并不胖的Jessica，天天在健身房运动，努力得以至于健身教练都对秀英说“叫西卡别来了”皇天不负有心人，Jessica在之后的09年专辑中展现了苗条的身材。

　　09年年初，是少女时代也是Jessica转折点的开始。1月，少女时代的“Gee”开始宣传打歌并成功夺得各个排行榜的冠军，该曲在KBS音乐银行连续9周夺冠，创造了新的音乐记录，而Jessica的一句歌词“PABO”（傻瓜）也红了，许多艺人纷纷模仿，Jessica的女饭数量疯狂增加。随着“Gee”的成功，Jessica的人气也急速上升。6月份少女时代携新曲“Genie”回归，Jessica的金发获得爆发性人气，Jessica无疑成为少女时代中无法忽略的一大亮点。与此同时，艺人朴明秀邀请Jessica在节目中合作一曲“冷面”，Jessica为了不影响团队日工作，在团队繁忙的日程中挤出时间单独练习此曲。令所有人都想不到的是，“冷面”获得了爆发性的人气，甚至挤下了同时期的“Genie”，成为排行榜的冠军，使得Jessica被称为“Team Killer”。这无疑又令Jessica人气爆棚。

　　10年年初，少女时代发行新专辑“OH”，Jessica仍保留金发造型不变，少女时代继续在韩国国内红火态势。并在下半年成功进军日本，此时Jessica已经不再是金发了。有趣的是，少女时代成员们很努力地学习日文，当人问秀英谁的日语还需要再学学的时候，秀英评论Jessica“Jessica的话，我就不指望了……”。原因是当老师叫成员们对话练习的时候，唯独Jessica不愿开口说。对此，Jessica的解释是“我觉得我说的很好，只是我不说而已！”

　　如今Jessica拥有的女粉丝的数量是少女时代中最多的。如果说一个女星拥有很多男粉丝是正常，那么Jessica拥有不亚于男星的女粉丝，说明她真的是一个很有魅力的女生。Jessica是个综合实力很强的人，不论是唱歌还是跳舞，都能做的很好。（还记得刚出道时她跳的Sexy舞吧） 遗憾的是，如今她主要负责唱歌，所以人们也很难能看见Jessica的舞蹈SOLO了。

　　不论是她还是少女时代这个团体，从不知名的训练生到如今红极一时的韩国女子天团，一路走来都非常不易，看着她们现在的辉煌成果，如果你了解这背后的辛酸苦辣，你会用不一样的眼光看待她们，在她们得大奖而流泪时，你也会跟着一起流泪。如今对Jessica和少女时代这个团体仍然有许多争议，但正如Jessica所说：“不想为无聊的事去解释。”“就算往下走也要保持美好的姿态，即使是结尾也要美丽的完结。我们少女时代也希望，就算是渐渐下滑的路上，也能走得比任何人都美丽。我们会享受这段时光，还有我们现在所拥有的。开心的面对所有事。”
