Song Hye-Kho gained widespread recognition for her performances in popular dramas such as “Autumn in My Heart” (2000), “Full House” (2004), “Descendants of the Sun” (2016), and “Encounter” (2018).

Born on November 22, 1981, in Dalseo District, Daegu, South Korea, she began her acting career in the late 1990s and quickly rose to fame due to her talent and charm.
