Ha immediately fell in love with the story when she read the script.
I like fantasy movies like the Twilight series and Alice in Wonderland, Ha said.
The plot of Secret Garden was unrealistic in every sense of the word - but viewers seemed to relate with the characters.
I worried at first if middle aged women would like the story. I wanted to bring them into a fantasy world and have them fall in love, Ha said. I thought if I acted real enough, I could blur the boundary between fiction and reality.
To prepare for scenes when the characters souls get swapped, she would listen to recordings of Hyun Bins voice for hours on end. She studied him endlessly. She observed Kim Joo-won - everything from the way he sits to his peculiar smile.
Every time I looked into a mirror, I hypnotized my self, I am Kim Joo-won. I dont know if people noticed, but I tried to imitate Hyun Bins eyes, she said.
Viewers connected with the down-to-earth actress.
It was exactly what I was going for. If a female character is too perfect and pretty, viewers will be jealous and they wouldnt have sympathized with Ra-im as much as they did. So I tried to be as ordinary as possible. If I wanted to look pretty and gorgeous, I wouldnt have picked this character, she said. People say I make the male character more likable when he makes my heart ache.
Television viewers are envious of her, often telling her that she must have saved the world to have the opportunity to work with Koreas top actors.
When Im in front of the camera, I only see the character, so I dont see it in terms of working with famous and beautiful people. Only after I see the end result do I realize how lucky I was to work with them, she said.
Looking at her filmography, it is clear that everything Ha touches turns to gold. She was involved with hit television shows on all three major broadcasting stations, MBCs Damo (2003), SBSs What Happened in Bali (2004) and KBSs Hwangjinee (2006).
Ha said she is carefully picking out her next role.
The script is the most important thing for me when I am picking a role, she said. I choose what I can really enjoy. I never have second thoughts after I make up my mind.
Has best attribute - the reason directors seek her out - is her character versatility.
She is a tomboy type but has sexy eyes. She can play anyone, said director Yoon Jae-gyun, who worked with her on three movies.
Ha said she likes the action involved in acting, setting her apart from many other actresses. She even does her own stunt work, which she had a lot of opportunities to do in Secret Garden because the main character was a stunt woman.
My ideal female role model is someone who is not fragile - someone who is independent and charismatic. I want to keep doing action scenes like Angelina Jolie.
