Career

2014–2015: Beginnings

edit

Chae was spotted by a casting director on the streets, and upon signing a management contract with Toin Entertainment, she proceeded to make her debut in 2014 with the film My Dictator. Due to the fact that her birth name is the same as the stage name of the more popular actor Bae Soo-bin (born Yoon Tae-wook), she was given the stage name "Chae Soo-bin".[4] She then featured in weekend drama House of Bluebird (2015)[5] and youth series Cheer Up! (2015)[6] which won her Best New Actress awards at both 4th APAN Star Awards and 29th KBS Drama Awards.[7]

2016–present: Rising popularity and leading roles

edit

Chae became recognized for her performance in the popular sageuk drama Love in the Moonlight (2016),[8] from which she gained an Excellence Award nomination at the 30th KBS Drama Awards.[9] The same year she starred in the play Blackbird [10] and the Chinese-South Korean web-drama My Catman.[11]

In January 2017, she took on her first prime-time leading role in the historical television series The Rebel.[12] The series was a modest success and led to a rise in popularity for Chae.[8] She then starred in KBS2's youth romance drama Strongest Deliveryman,[13] and MBC's romantic comedy drama I'm Not a Robot.[14] Also in 2017, Chae starred in the first episode of the eighth season of the KBS2 anthology series KBS Drama Special, "If We Were a Season."[15]

In 2018, Chae starred in the airport-themed drama Where Stars Land.[16] Her performance won her the Excellence Award at the SBS Drama Awards.[17] Chae and co-star Lee Je-hoon were also appointed honorary ambassadors of Incheon International Airport.[18] After the expiration of her management contract with Toin Entertainment in December 2018, Chae joined King Kong by Starship in January 2019.[1]

In 2020, Chae starred in the romance drama A Piece of Your Mind alongside Jung Hae-in.[19]

In 2021 and 2022, Chae appeared opposite Gong Myung in the music video series for Kyuhyun's Four Seasons Project, which consisted of the singles "Moving On," "Coffee," "Together," and "Love Story."[20] Also in 2021, she starred with Jang Ki-yong in the romantic comedy film Sweet & Sour.[21]

In January 2022, she starred alongside Kang Daniel in the Disney+ series Rookie Cops.[22] That same month, Chae starred in the South Korean period adventure film The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure. On May 25, 2022, Chae decided to extend her contract with King Kong by Starship.[23] In September, Chae was reunited with her Love in the Moonlight costars for the TVING entertainment program Young Actors' Retreat.[24] In December of that same year she starred in the Netflix series The Fabulous.[25]

In January 2023, Chae was cast as Viola de Lesseps in the 30th anniversary edition of Seoul Arts Center's production of Shakespeare in Love, alongside Jung So-min and Kim Yoo-jung as alternates.[26] On May 24, Chae and singer Jo Yu-ri released the promotional single "Yellow Circle" in collaboration with Lipton and Starship Entertainment.[27]
