}} Han Ga-in (born Kim Hyun-joo on February 2, 1982) is a South Korean actress. She starred in television series ''Yellow Handkerchief'' and ''Terms of Endearment'' early in her career, and became a sought-after model in commercials. Her projects in 2012 were hugely successful, with her period drama ''Moon Embracing the Sun'' topping the TV ratings chart, and her film ''Architecture 101'' becoming a box office hit. ==Career== As a high school student, Han Ga-in appeared on a TV quiz show and was also captured in footage of interviews with other students. Entertainment bigwigs spotted her in the news clip and immediately went to her school to offer her a part.〔("History Attests to Korean Stars' All-Natural Looks" ). ''The Chosun Ilbo''. 6 June 2006. Retrieved 2012-10-08.〕 She debuted in an Asiana Airlines commercial in 2002, and was cast in the KBS2 drama ''Sunshine Hunting''. KBS Drama Awards named her best new actress in 2003 for ''Yellow Handkerchief'', and best actress for ''Terms of Endearment'' in 2004.〔("Han Ga-in struggles to overcome innocent image" ). ''Korea Joongang Daily''. 4 April 2012. Retrieved 2012-10-08.〕〔 She soon became one of the most sought-after faces in the TV commercial industry. But despite her early success, Han struggled to overcome her image as strictly a pretty face rather than a serious actress. Over the past decade of drama appearances, the popular actress repeatedly played familiar characters and her performances failed to wow audiences.〔 After ''Witch Yoo Hee'' wrapped in 2007, Han publicly criticized the director and writers for the drama's poor quality. She went on a three-year hiatus afterwards, merely starring in advertisements. Categorized as a "CF star," Han wanted to change that misconception with her comeback in 2010.〔("Top Actresses Heading Toward Small Screen" ). ''The Korea Times''. 8 February 2010. Retrieved 2012-10-08.〕 In ''Bad Guy'', she attempted to transform her image as a pure and innocent girl to a materialistic woman who dreams of climbing the social ladder.〔("Press conference for drama ''Bad Guy''" ).

''10Asia''. 6 September 2010. Retrieved 2012-10-08.〕 2012 was the most successful year of Han's career yet. Period drama ''Moon Embracing the Sun'', in which she played the heroine, an amnesiac noblewoman-turned-shaman, ended with an audience share of 40 percent when the final episode aired.〔〔("Hit drama ends with record ratings" ).
