Introduction
Lee Young-ae (January 31, 1971) first appeared on television in
1993, but it wasn't until 1995 that she began acting in many TV
dramas and gathering a large fan following. She won various
television awards in the mid-1990s, and in 1996 she made her
film debut in the poorly-received Insh'Allah.
The negative reputation this film garnered may have pushed back her filmcareer several years, but when she did return it was with a bang, in the record-breaking Joint Security Area by Park Chan wook. At the time it became the best-selling Korean film ever, and it launched Lee Young-ae into undisputed stardom.
In 2001 Lee continued to build on her film career, starring in
the popular melodrama Last Present opposite Lee Jung-jae, and
also in the second feature by Hur Jin-ho, director of the
acclaimed Christmas in August. This film was released in late
September to great critical acclaim, and it landed Lee a Best
Actress award from the local Blue Dragon awards.
For the next few years, Lee did not appear in any films, but
from 2003 she took the lead role in a hugely popular TV drama
called Dae Jang-geum, which revived her popularity among
ordinary viewers. In 2005 the drama was also screened in Hong
Kong, where it became the most successful Korean drama ever to
screen in the territory, topping 40% in viewer ratings (Hong
Kong), and 90% in Iran.
