In 2009, Han Hyo-joo starred as the lead actress in the highly successful SBS drama, Shining Inheritance, along with Lee Seung Gi. The drama’s popularity, with a peak viewership rating of 47.1% in South Korea, has increased her visibility in the Korean media and popularity as an entertainment personality. Since the drama’s conclusion, she has experienced a sharp rise in interest for endorsement deals and media requests for interviews.
Following her success on Shining Inheritance, Han Hyo-joo was slated to assume the lead female role in the upcoming KBS2 drama, Chuno. However, she withdrew from the role prior to production allegedly due to issues relating to her management and salary.
Han Hyo-joo will also star in the collaborative Korean-Japanese telecinema production, Heaven’s Postman, which – after several postponements – is scheduled for release in late 2009. The drama also features Kim Jaejoong from TVXQ.

In September 2009, Han Hyo-joo wrapped up her latest starring role in the musical drama, Soul Special, which will also star K. Will in his acting debut. The drama is slated to air in twelve five-minute segments on various online portals, with KBS airing the entire drama in four parts.
