While television is her primary domain, Kim Tae Hee has also left her mark on film. The 2010 thriller The Grand Heist (also known as The Quiz Show Scandal ) and the 2013 film The Five (where she played a woman seeking revenge for her family’s murder) show a gritty side rarely seen in her TV work.

Shows routinely captured over 40% of national television viewership ratings.

In 2009, Kim starred in Iris , a high-budget espionage thriller that cost over 20 billion won to produce. Iris was a critical pivot point for Korean media content, proving that domestic television could match Hollywood-style action production values. Kim’s portrayal of a top profile analyst showcased her adaptability, helping the show achieve massive international syndication and pioneering the multi-season blockbusters common today.
