Biography
Hwang Su-jeong became a household name in South Korea after her 1999 breakout role as Lady Ye-jin in the period drama Hur Jun, which achieved a peak rating of 63.7% and averaged 54% viewership. Her performance earned her two top honors—best actress and favorite actress—at the MBC Drama Awards in 2000. Born in South Korea on December 24, 1972, she made her acting debut in 1994. In 2001, a methamphetamine arrest with her live-in lover resulted in a one-year-six-month sentence; she was released on bail after serving 78 days in 2002. The scandal destroyed her "pure" image, and broadcasters and advertisers terminated contracts; she withdrew from public view for five years. Hwang returned to the industry in 2006, appearing in the WAX music video "Because Love is Always Like That," followed by a leading role in the 2007 TV drama Salt Doll. She went on to appear in director Hong Sang-soo's film Night and Day (2008), the Drama Special For My Son (2011), and the omnibus movie In Between (2012), though never regained her former prominence. As an actor, she works across television drama and film. Her Life Path number is 1 [birth fact], the signature of pioneering individuals who chart their own course—a fitting resonance with her attempt to rebuild after public scandal.
