In timeless stories, the evil characters are as famous as the main characters that they bother. But the stronger and more evil the character is, it is a bigger harm to the image of an actor.
This is why famous actors didn't take on evil roles, and new or unknown actors who wanted to leave a lasting impression took on these roles.
The actress who has received the most recognition for her evil role is Song Yoon-ah. In "Mister Q", she bothered Kim Hee-seon, the female lead, for Kim Min-jong. Viewers remembered her for her evil role, but now, she is receiving lots of love for her great acting in various roles.
Kim Tae-hee, a top star today, also rose with an evil role. She would stare at Choi Ji-woo with piercing eyes in SBS "Stairway to Heaven". Then, she changed her image through dramas "Forbidden Love", "Love Story in Harvard", and movie "The Restless".
