Korean actress Jun Ji-hyun initially turned down her role in the hit drama series “My Love from the Star,” a local cable TV show revealed in a program.

According to the show, Jun did not want to take the lead role in the drama, but she was convinced by fellow actor Kim Soo-hyun. The two had worked together for the 2012 film “The Thieves.”
