Related movies/dramas The recent example is Yoon Eun-hye from drama "Coffee Prince" who literary was a centre of attention during the course of the drama. Initially, the role was first suggested to Kim Ah-joong but she was under an exclusive contract with a shampoo company and a contract term states that she maintains long hair until the contract finishes. So the role was given to Yoon Eun-hye, who was prepared to cut her hair short for the role. Last year's big issue, "Fantastic Couple"'s Jo An-na, Han Ye-seul, was also a substitute cast of Uhm Jung-hwa who refused the role due to her busy schedule from releasing her 9th album at the time. Despite the fact, Han Ye-seul brought out the character within herself and created many 'analects of Jo An-na', which became a sensational hit throughout the country. However, once in the past, Han Ye-seul same mistake as Uhm Jung-hwa when she refused to be in "My Name is Kim Sam-soon" and Jeong Ryeo-won took her place. The drama was literally a jackpot when it was on-air. This goes same to Rain in "Full House". Initially, the producing staffs gave the role to Jung Woo-sung and then to Lee Jeong-jae. Even so, Rain showed constant interests to the staffs of starring in the drama and when Lee Jeong-jae turned down the offer in preparing for his film "Typhoon", Rain eventually got the role. The film industry has no exception. Jo Seung-woo, who perfectly digested the role of autistic 20 years old man with the brain capacity of 5 years old in the film "Marathon" grabbed his chance when Shin Ha-gyoon, who was busy shooting other film and Park Hae-il, who felt a burden to act an autistic man, rejected the role. Kim Ah-joong from "200 Pounds Beauty" also went around few turns before she could get her hand on the role. The directing staffs suggests many top female stars include Ko So-young, Kim Hee-seon, Lee Na-young and Soo-ae but many felt uneasy about a character who undergoes a complete cosmetic makeover. Meanwhile, Kim Ah-joong came into their eyes and she was given the role. Also there are unlucky stars who have rejected their chances of fame. Cha In-pyo have rejected 'Shiri', 'The Foul King', "The Host", "Friend", 'Kick the moon', 'My Wife Is a Gangster' and 'My Boss, My Hero' and Kim Hee-seon missed out in 'Autumn in my Heart', "All In", 'Winter Sonata', 'Lovers in Paris', 'Phoenix' and 'Sorry, I Love You'.
