Career

Jung Hye-sung got her start in the glamour world as a model. With a modest beginning there, she ventured into the entertainment industry. She debuted in Kwak Kyung-taek's drama ‘Friend, Our Legend’. A remake of Kwak's own 2001 box-office hit film ‘Friend’, the series aired on MBC from June 27 to August 30, 2009, and depicted a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story of four friends. Jung portrayed the character Sae-ri.

In 2011, she modelled at the 13th Tokyo Girls Collection Autumn/Winter event. Two years later, she walked the ramp at the Tokyo Runway Autumn/Winter show.

She returned to television in 2012 in the romantic comedy ‘To The Beautiful You’.

Her next project, ‘Pride and Prejudice’, that ran on MBC from October 27, 2014 to January 13, 2015, told the story of a public prosecutor and his team of mismatched legal warriors who would do everything they can to protect the innocent and punish the wicked, despite prideful authorities and a corrupt system acting as seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Jung’s role in the series was as Yoo Kwang-mi, a supporting character.

For her next project, she chose the vampire thriller ‘Blood’ (2015). Cast as Choi Soo-eun, this was her first outing in a fantasy series.

The 2015 fitness drama ‘Oh My Venus’ was an important milestone in her career. She played Jang Yi-jin, who is a CF Queen of South Korea.

She played Hong Ga-eun, an accounting intern who is sent to spy on the lead protagonist Kim Sung-ryong (Namkoong Min) by a prosecutor in KBS2’s 2017 workplace comedy ‘Good Manager’. The single-camera sitcom was able to draw top ratings, despite being set against big-budget dramas such as SBS’ ‘Saimdang, Light's Diary’.

Jung also appeared on the 355th episode of SBS’ variety show ‘Running Man’. She acted in another KBS2 series in 2017, the fantasy sitcom ‘Manhole’. Despite innovative setting and genuinely witty dialogues, the show drew poor numbers, registering average nationwide rating of 2.7%.

Set during 19th-century Joseon dynasty, the series depicts the complex relationship between Crown Prince Lee Yeong (Park Bo-gum) and one of his counsellors (Kim Yoo-jung), who is actually a woman in disguise.
