For this issue of Ceci, Kim So Eun participated as a cover model. She was also in the calendar, and table of contents according to a profile made by a fan. This is likely true.
As the cover model she was also on ceci.patzzi.com website banner.
As for these photos, some of them are probably from this magazine. Some of them from other stuff.

Kim So-eun. Born September 6, 1989 is a South Korean actress under NOA Entertainment. She has appeared in a number of series and dramas, suc
It was known as her debut work(as a CF Model) by many, although it might not necessarily be the case, but what's clear is that this CF is the first CF of hers that got public attention.
Stated as from 11th October 2003 in the TVCF website, it is a 15 second CF.
CF Video:
Some people were talking in Naver's 지식IN (Knowledge IN) about how she was affliated with Ready Model Agency. I don't think this was likely though, since it seems that Ready Model Agency mostly did casting work at that time (seems to be half-confirmed by a fan from 2005).
Kim So Eun with Kim Ki Bum (the former Super Junior member) for KTF CF on 23th April 2005 (as written on TVCF website). It seemed to be titled Bus Stop.
This CF is quite famous, so it was one of her representative works at the time, it even has some parodies made.
There are the 20 and 30 second version, it's basically the same thing but with some parts cut out.
CF (30s ver.):
CF (20s ver. with English Subtitles):
The song used in the CF is titled 내가 사랑하는 그녀는 (The Girl I Love) by Zipper.
An interesting anecdote about this CF, back then, if you call the number Kim So Eun mentioned (016-201-5016), you will hear an automated response with her voice.
This guy over here even got fooled by it for a moment🤣. She introduced herself as Kim So Eun from the CF and just continued rambling.
Kim So Eun for Go News / Economy Today Interview (2009)
Not much could be found, but the photos are likely taken on 1.35 p.m. 17th February 2009. If so, the article was likely to be published around a few days until a week after that.
Nothing could be confirmed about the article, but considering the timing it might be centered on drama 'Boys Over Flowers'.
The article was likely to be posted on both Go News and Economy Today (경제 투데이).
Go News is an internet-based news portal which was founded in 2004. It closed down in early 2009 and was sort of(?) reformed into Economy Today (경제 투데이). Later on, Economy Today was renamed(?) Focus News which closed down for real in 2017. It was also affliated with Social Media platform Freechal.
Much couldn't be uncovered about these pictures, but they were likely obtained from the website instead of the magazine.
This one is highly likely to be from 2007. The hair length checks out and this is the year where she has two movies. My guess is that this is related to movie 'The Show Must Go On'.
This one is likely to be from November 2008-February 2009. Considering her hairstyle and overall look, this is for her role as Chu Ga Eul in 'Boys Over Flowers'
Movieweek is a weekly movie magazine as its name suggests. It was closed down and integrated to Magazine M on 2013. Magazine M closed down on 2017.

A Story About the Day, a unique talk show that brings back the memories of the 'shocking days' in modern Korean history, comes back with mor
Kim So Eun was featured in an article from the 6th Volume of The G Magazine, which is actually a mobile game magazine, not a fashion magazine.
We couldn't be 100% sure of the content, but it seemed to be a general profile, as well as some of talks about her current projects.
Although this was for the August Issue, it was shot on 9th July 2005, according to the photographer.
These are some photos that didn't make the cut, probably.
The G Magazine is a mobile game magazine that started publication in February 2005. The magazine was available both on print and online.
Though it has its ambition to be the first mobile game magazine in South Korea, by August 2005 there doesn't seem to be any more issues released.
This is likely because of poor sales, with an inexperienced team that is not ready to be a publication. There are many messages about shipping and subscription issues (online), the team might have been overwhelmed. This is also evident in how they were late on making the 6th issue.
The closure of The G was pretty sudden, there is not even any final messages, they just stopped coming to the Cafe.
Now, how am I sure that this is the magazine? I did some research and I found that the photographer did a few more photoshoots with a few other rookie actresses / models. So, I scanned through their Daum Cafe's and I found out that it was The G.
