Koo Hye-sun entered the entertainment industry after gaining popularity on the Internet as an ulzzang. She used to be a trainee under SM Entertainment, before switching over to DSP Media and preparing to debut in a girl group called Ria. But after it didn't work out she then signed under YG Entertainment. Originally set to debut as a singer (supposedly in a three-member girl group with 2NE1's Park Bom and Sandara Park), YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun-suk advised Koo to pursue acting rather than music. She made her debut in a CF for Sambo computers and then made her television debut in the KBS horror series Anagram, and continued to appear in one-act dramas. Her performance as Hye-jin in the 2004 MBC sitcom Nonstop 5 attracted the audience's attention. • Illustration — In December 2008 Koo soon rose to fame in the 2006 television drama Hearts of Nineteen and surprised critics with her performance in the historical drama The King and I. She then starred in the historical drama Strongest Chil Woo. Koo rose to fame for her role as Geum Jan-di in the mega hit KBS2 drama Boys Over Flowers opposite Lee Min-ho, which gained her pan-Asia popularity. After a year in limbo with no broadcasting slot, her first pre-produced drama The Musical finally aired in September 2011. Koo next starred as a female pilot in the SBS series Take Care of Us, Captain, followed by Absolute Darling, the Taiwanese drama adaptation of the manga Absolute Boyfriend. After two years break from acting career, Koo appears in MBC channel's two-part documentary drama Heo Nanseolheon. She took part in the program's narration and production as well. Koo then made a small screen comeback acting in SBS's weekend drama Angel Eyes in 2014.

In February 2015, Koo starred in KBS's vampire drama Blood. She plays an arrogant genius physician who entered medical school at a young age of 17. Blood suffered low ratings in Korea and was criticized for her acting. On November 6, 2015, Koo was confirmed to be starring in a Chinese drama The Legendary Tycoon which tells the life story of Run Run Shaw, a self-made entertainment mogul from Hong Kong. Koo was cast in the MBC's weekend drama You're Too Much alongside Uhm Jung-hwa. However, she left the show after two weeks for health reasons.
