Actress Moon Geun Young is currently studying hard for her last semester.

On June 18, a spokesperson for Moon’s agency, Namoo Actors, said that Moon is studying hard for her final exam to take full credits to graduate this year.

The spokesperson says, “She will finish taking full credits but she won’t graduate in this first half year. She will prepare for her graduation during the second half year. She will do her presentation assignments and take language tests.”

But since if she completed her credits for graduation, she doesn’t have to attend school, and that made people eagerly anticipate seeing her in movies or TV dramas later this year.

The spokesperson also says, “She is currently studying hard for the final test. She is carefully considering her next job as well.”

Since Moon is not a national baby sister anymore and has become a lady, many officials in the movie and drama businesses are offering her various characters to play.

Moon recently went to see the musical Finding Mr. Destiny to support So Yoo Jin and drew a lot of attention thanks to her beautiful appearance.

The Moon Embracing the Sun [ 해를 품은 달 ] Popularity Overflowing while Moon Geun Young Lost Masterpiece

Korean drama The Moon that Embraces the Sun (The Sun and the Moon) has achieved ratings of close to 20% on national average with just two episodes aired, completely sweeping away the declining tendency of previous drama Me Too, Flower! The Moon that Embraces the Sun is leading with ratings that almost double of other two dramas broadcast at the same time slot, and the result has exceeded expectations of many people, including Korean actress Moon Geun Young who declined the role.

The Moon that Embraces the Sun is adapted from novel of the same name by author Jung Eun Gwol who also wrote the novel that is been adapted as hit drama Sungkyunkwan Scandal. It tells the love story between the king Lee Hwon and the witch Wol (Moon aka Yeon Woo).

Moon Geun Young was originally the first choice for the role that is supported by fans of the novel. Even the production company of the drama regarded Moon Geun Young as the only casting candidate for the role of “Wol” (Moon aka Yeon Woo), and invited her to act in the drama.

But according the source in production company, the team of Moon Geun Young proposed the suggestion to change the cast on the ground that the popularity and awareness of lead male actor is not high enough. Both sides failed to negotiate to bring differences in line, and eventually producer had to give up on Moon Geun Young.

Note: According to Nate, back in June 2011, the agency of Moon Geun Young has denied the rumor that Moon Geun Young is going to appear on The Sun and the Moon, and has clarified that Moon Geun Young has never been contacted about the drama, nor invited to join the drama as cast.

Jang Tae Woo, the PD of Moon Geun Young's 2008 drama 'Painter of the Wind,' talked about Moon Geun Young in a recent interview with TVReport.

"I think she (Moon Geun Young) really is a rare actress. She has her own mask, and passion, and, on top of that, she also has the power of optimism. Because of these reasons, I believe she received the 'nation's little sister' nickname and lots of love. Even while filming, Moon Geun Young was loved by all the staff. She makes the people around her like that (love her).”

"정말 보기 드문 배우라고 생각한다. 자신만의 마스크, 그리고 열정, 거기에 긍정의 힘까지 가지고 있다. 이런 이유로 국민 여동생이라는 칭호를 받고 많은 사랑을 받았던 것 같다. 촬영 당시에도 문근영은 모든 스태프들에게 사랑을 받았다. 주변 사람을 그렇게 하도록 만든다."
