How Was Han Sunhwa in SECRET?
It is public knowledge that Han Sunhwa started her career not as an actress but as a girl group member. In October 2009, Han Sunhwa debuted along with Jun Hyosung, Song Jieun, and Jung Hana in the girl group SECRET and was chosen as the face of the group because she was considered the most beautiful member. SECRET was fairly popular and had several hit songs such as Madonna, Love Is Move, Shy Boy, and Starlight Moonlight. During her career in SECRET, Han Sunhwa built her reputation in the field of acting as she often starred in television dramas as the supporting role. Besides being a support-worthy actress, Han Sunhwa was also included as the fixed cast of television variety shows such as Invincible Youth and We Got Married. In 2016, Han Sunhwa decided to not renew her contract with TS Entertainment and left SECRET altogether, automatically prompting herself to focus on her acting career.
