From that point on I had ambitions for this field."

In Jang Keun Suk's case, he was first recognized through this competition. Thereafter he had opportunities as a child actor. This year he celebrates his twenty years since debuting. Have Geum shared, "I first went to the competition because my parents dragged me into it. I was relieved after I debuted when I found out that many stars also entered this competition."
