According to Korean website Dispatch, Kim Miso shared a selfie while wearing a police uniform on Instagram recently.

The photograph became an instant success after many Korean web users applauded her in her career choice as well as her curved figure and pretty face.

She was soon dubbed the ‘most beautiful policewoman’ in South Korea, according to Korean media, as many web users shared her photos.

Photographs of her in revealing bikinis and other sexy poses have also appeared alongside the police uniform selfie while her profile on Maxim appears to have been taken down.

South Korea’s Central Police Academy has since confirmed that the former model has successfully completed training and is now working for a police department in Seoul.

Pictures of the 25-year-old wearing a bikini and in other provocative poses have also surfaced again recently

This year, beautiful people working in everyday jobs has been particularly topical for Chinese web users.

In March, a policeman in Chongqing, south west China, unexpectedly stopped a marathon when female runners mistook him for a famous actor and crowded around him to take photographs.

One Taiwanese butcher followed suit when web users made her so famous, people would queue to buy meat from her and then ask for her number.

A tofu seller in Taiwan set Chinese social media networks alight with his six pack and chiseled jaw.

He was quickly followed by a fruit seller in Taiwan who also shot to fame with his toned body.
