She is said to have debuted 6 years ago, but went rather unnoticed until the MBC drama series '
Air City' which ended in July.
Park Hyo-joo gathered attention through the role as Lee Jung Jae's junior NIS agent in '
Air City' also starring Choi Ji Woo. She was the playful and cool tomboy amongst a group of male agents. With her thin features, black suit, and short hair, she brought out the question amongst viewers, "Who is that?"
And she finally was cast as the main lead in the upcoming MBC DramaNet series "Joseon Scientific Investigation Team - Byul Soon Geom" ("
Chosun Police Season 1") with
On Joo-wan.

Kim Myeong-min was thought to be an up-and-coming star after his debut in 1996 but his life went in a different direction. He was badly injured while performing a stunt and his film contracts kept being withdrawn. This series of unfortunate events led him to quit stage acting in 2004.

MoreWith the crucial summer season in full swing, Korean filmmakers are getting ready to mount counterattacks against Hollywood blockbusters in August. This time around, what is noticeable is Korean films' strategic discretion in selecting and diversifying genres.
In recent years, a handful of the so-called Korean blockbusters clashed with American counterparts, only to end up with not-so-spectacular results.
"The Host", for instance, garnered a rare success at box office, while the majority of hit wannabes withered helplessly.
To find some niche ground and increase the odds for survival, major films releasing in August zoom in on selective genres such as sex, monster and horror. Of course, these genres are hardly groundbreaking, but considering the uniformity in genres of Korean films during the past summer seasons, the latest penchant for diverse genres is a welcome development.
"Temptation of Eve", for example, is not aiming to hit it big at box office. This four-piece ("
Temptation of Eve - Angel", "...
