That's right K-drama lovers. The naively, sweet star from "Coffee Prince" and "Goong" is making her comeback on the silver screen after nearly two years. And this time, she's not Miss Sweet and Innocent anymore.

Yoon plays Kang Hae-na, the heir of a major Korean corporation, in her newest show "My Fair Lady" (also known as "Lady Castle"). She grows up rich, bossy and selfish, and leads a glamorous life of luxury in her mansion, "Lady Castle." But alas, Hae-na is alone and unable to make friends or get a boyfriend because of her selfish and picky ways.
Then along comes Seo Dong-chan, played by Yoon Sang-hyun from the popular "My Wife is a Superwoman", a playboy who takes on the role of butler in order to win over the pickiest girl in town for her money. He must support his sick mother and pay off debts.
However, his plans are thrown for a loop when Lee Tae-yoon, played by Jung Il-woo from "Moon River," a poised and modest lawyer enters the story. Putting aside his rich upbringing, he decides to open a small law practice to help the unfortunate. He dismisses Hae-na as a spoiled brat until he discovers her tragic past.
KBS promises the series will be entertaining and funny, despite producers' early fears about how the public would initially receive Yoon's character.
"The producer worried that people would hate my character," the 24-year-old actress said at a press conference. "She has a strong personality, but I'll mix it with my own and make the audience connect with her and laugh along the way."
"My Fair Lady" airs on KBS at 10 p.m. on Tuesdays. The first episode aired on Aug. 18.
