Park Shin-hye stands out the most. She starred in the SBS drama "Stairway to Heaven" when she was in 6th grade and slowly made her way up until now. She is one of the first few people to appear on top of a director's list. Her achievements in the last 5~6 years have earned her some trust and she's become a top star with SBS drama "You're Beautiful", "The Heirs" and "Pinocchio".

Another reason why Park Shin-hye is in the spotlight is because she's got impact in Japan and China. Not only is it rare for a K-Pop star to have such influence in Hallyu, but an actress too, and Park Shin-hye is recognized as the Top 3 Hallyu queen along with Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo. She is also the only actress who holds fan meetings and concerts with her fans every year.

On the other hand, Kim Go-eun is mostly in movies. She debuted in 2012 with "A Muse" and continued onto "Coin Locker Girl", "The Advocate : A missing body" and the most recent, "Canola". Everyone knows she is the icon for an actress in her 20s. Youn Yuh-jung from "Canola" said, "I told the production company that I would be in the movie if Kim Go-eun was in it".

Park Shin-hye and Kim Go-eun are the 'two tops' but there are others catching up and they are Park Bo-young, Park So-dam and Lim Ji-yeon. They have different colors and are the best in their own areas.

Park Bo-young is a 'certified' actress. She successfully made a name for herself in the movies "Scandal Makers" and "A Werewolf Boy" as well as the tvN drama "Oh My Ghostess".

Park So-dam and Lim Ji-yeon are brand new. They have been going around leaving deep impressions in the public's mind.
