Actors Kim Soo-hyun, Jun Ji-hyun and Song Joong-ki gained fame in China through pan-Asian hit dramas “My Love from the Star” and “Descendants of the Sun,” the Customers Council said.
“Despite the strong anti-Hallyu measures recently taken by the Chinese government, the Chinese public’s interest in Hallyu stars has not died down,” said Jeon Jae-ho, head of the council.
