Once, I worked with actor Gang Dong Won when he was a model. I also did one with actor Zo In Sung, although I'm not sure if he'd remember. And actor Ju Ji Hoon had his first photoshoot with me during his early career.

" "I wasn't so impressed when I first heard Kim Soo Hyun would be the male model since I didn't know him. But when we started shooting, he showed remarkable energy. He was humble, just like he is now.

", Jang Yoon Ju recalled. She continued, "So I told Kim Soo Hyun, very casually, 'You know what? They rise to fame after a photoshoot with me. You'll become a star!'.

His response was, 'Wow, is that so?'." Jang Yoon Ju said Kim Soo Hyun did rise to stardom after the photoshoot, followed by the success of KBS' drama 'Dream High' (2011) and MBC'.
