In 2000, her big break came while performing as the child character Eun-Seo in the KBS2 drama "Gaeul donghwa (2000)". With the drama's large following, she became recognized by the Korean public. In 2010, while promoting the theatrical play "Closer" Moon Geun-Young was asked what was her favorite performance and she stated that it was "Gaeul donghwa (2000)" due to her acting inexperience at the time and having to act on pure instinct.
