  • Han Hyo-joo prefers a stripped-down make-up look for campaigns but can also go bold, as she did in shiny leather pants and a chain gold necklace for a Louis Vuitton shoot
  • When not glammed up for events or posing for magazine covers, the model-turned-actress likes ripped denim shorts and T-shirts paired with a baseball cap and sneakers

Disney + hit the jackpot recently with its supernatural K-drama series Moving, which released in August. The show was a major boost to the streaming platform’s subscriptions, per Kdrama Stars. It’s been dubbed a South Korean take on the hit American series Heroes and centres on a group with superpowers struggling to come to terms with their unique gifts.

One of Moving’s breakout stars is actress Han Hyo-joo, who plays Lee Mi-hyun in the series, who has superhuman senses. The former teenage beauty queen and model-turned-actress debuted on screen in 2003 in the sitcom Nonstop 5 and has had several notable roles over the years, including in the 2010 film Dong Yi, which earned her a best actress award at the 47th Baeksang Arts Awards.

The talented actress’ star has continued to rise in her native South Korea and Japan as well, thanks to her fluency in the language.

Fans worldwide are hanging on the edge of their seat as they binge-watch Moving. Judging by the success of the series, Han is likely to see her four-plus million Instagram fans grow to become a more international following.
