My Take
Jang Seo-hee is a true workhorse of Korean television, and I have a lot of time for that. The Seoul-born, Kyung Hee University-educated actress carried hugely successful dramas like Miss Mermaid and Temptation of Wife, the latter earning her top acting honors at the MBC and SBS Drama Awards. What earns my respect is the sheer staying power; surviving decades on the front line of a fickle industry takes far more than looks, it demands real craft and a steady reputation. She's the kind of actress who wins roles on trust rather than buzz, and to me that's a far more impressive career than any flash-in-the-pan stardom.
