Kdrama Women’s Week: Least Typecast Fave

Im Joo Eun

From a possessed schoolgirl to a fairy turned evil that possesses other people; from a rebellious college student in love with her professor to a down-on-her-luck tutor to rich kids caught in a depressing love triangle; from quirky neighbor who speaks her mind to conniving rich chaebol to actual empress – Im Joo Eun can do it all, and never seems to have the same role twice. My only complaint is that she seems selective about her roles and isn’t on my screen enough.
