Jun Ji Hyun has recently recaptured the media’s attention, starring in blockbuster drama “The Legend of the Blue Sea”. But aside from her amazing talent and memorable dramas, how much do you really know about her?
Prior to her acting career, Jun Ji Hyun was actually known as Wang Ji Hyun! When Jun Ji Hyun starred in the drama “Steal My Heart” in 1998, the producer Oh Jong Rok, upon casting her, suggested that she use a pseudonym. The reason was he felt the name Wang Ji Hyun did not roll off the tongue like other actresses’ names. This would eventually serve as the catalyst for Jun Ji Hyun’s name change.

This mountain, which is currently shared by North Korea and China as it sits on the border, is called Baekdu-san by Koreans, and it is considered to be the sacred place of their ancestral origin. As there were attempts made by China to register the mountain as Chinese territory on UNESCO's World Heritage Site, or using it to promote tourism and bids for Olympics in the past, which Koreans have objected to, it is a sensitive topic.
