Despite having the most amazing skills in acting, nothing will happen if paired with poorly written dramas and badly produced work.

It is difficult to gain the public's attention when all other factors fail as they are all crucial in creating a box office masterpiece that will leave the viewers wanting for more.

Thankfully, these five South Korean actors were able to carve their name in the Hallyu scene with their one hit drama.

Kim Da Mi

Kim Da Mi instantly gained popularity after her debut in 2018 with the blockbuster film "The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion."

Unbeknownst to many, the actress landed the role after overcoming a competition rate of 500:1, which was a tight call for aspiring stars.

Since then, her desk is filled with various drama offers that included the top notch works "Because This Is My First Life," "The Smile Has Left Your Eyes," "Alchemy of Souls" and more.
