Do you know some Korean Artist that can speak English? For me, they have a big chance being an international artist!

Actually Rain can only speak a little English and he is not that fluent either. He can understand more than speak based on what I have heard.

I think that Taebin, Tablo, Daniel Henney, and the other girl in MNIKSS can speak English very well.

eugene speaks perfect english in WONDERFUL LIFE!

i believe she's born in guam. and i've also read that lee dae hee (green grose) studied in australia so it means to say that she speaks english too!

it is an added plus and advantage to korean celebrities who speak english=)

the girl who acted as Hee Jin in MNIKSS...and lee byung hun..oh,yes,and i watch the first episode of wonderful life and was impressed with eugene's english.

Who is Daniel Henney? And what show is MNIKSS? i think Jeon Ji Hyun can speak English. Think she went to US to learn english.. Choi Ji Woo too.. yeah, its an advantage if they know how to speak english. Cos they have many overseas fans who dont understand korean! haha.. like me..

MNIKSS = My Name Is Kim Sam Soon
Daniel Henney is the guy in (my name is kim sam soon)

i think most of them can sort of understand english and maybe speak some english. But Eugene really speaks fluently. That's all i know.

people like Rain only say a few words. i dont call him an english speaking korean actor. and i also heard Jang Dong Gun speak some english.

I havent watch kim sam soon yet. so, i dont know anything about the daniel guy but his name itself already sounds english. hahaha

yep just like every1 said..Eugene's english in Wonderful life was heaps good...very fluent..when i first heard her speak..i was like "woah! she sounds so American!"..but then u people said that she studied in America? that figures [:

& HeeJin from My Name is Kim Sam Soon..her english was also heaps good..she sounded American too..how izzit that all of them sound American? hehe..

Daniel Henney? haha, definitely. English is probably his first language, wasnt he brought up in America? and his mixed isnt he? His mom is Korean and dad American [just a wild guess]?

yeahh..hehe =D.

Kim Yoon-jin speaks fluent english (she's a native new yorker). She's from the movie 'Shiri'.

Also in the movie 'Iron Palm' you can hear her speak english

Yea Eugene she moved to Guam wen she was young...Didnt born there....


TAebin went college in Diamond Square in CA
Eric was born in U.S too ( i think NY or something like tat)
Seven-went to college in U.S too ( i think)

brian has good english.
tim
and that girl from LSIH
jung ryu won
and of course daniel henney since he english is his first language.

i heard kim sun ah's english is good...is it true? i never hread it before. people said she faked it in MNIKSS? i'm so confused

Kim Sun Ah from MNIKSS, even though in the serie, her character doenst speak good english but in real life she speaks very well cos she has went to Indiana to study. i heard she has to do translation to Danel Henney when they filmed the serie

THey talked about Kim Sun-Ah's english in an interview and Daniel Henney said that if his english was considered 100%, hers would be 75-80%

that other guy in sad love story, the best friend of kwon sang woo -- yeon jeong hoon, is it? i think he can speak english... that part in sad love story when he was in NY and he was dishing out english lines... his diction was really good and it seemed like he wasn't having a hard time speaking the english language.

in all in..song hye kyo spoke decent english..its not good..but its understandable..and that was before she took a long break and stayed in the US..so prolly now her english is way better..

Lee byung hun is fluent.

and Kim min..she's the other girl in love story in harvard, she live in the US so her english is perfect.

Kim Tae hee speaks good enough english too

Well besides the ones already mentioned, Teddy from 1Tym probably has good english ^__^ So does Yoo Seung Jun and definitely Jay Kim from The Trax

What about Lee Ki-Woo from Ijuksa? Does he really speak those languages? On that show his English doesn't seem very good, but he also speaks French and Japanese - Yikes!

Boa english isnt fluent, but yes she speak english ..

Danny has fluent english ...

Lexy also has fluent english ...

anyone has clips showing eric speaking english?? he's such a cutie!! i din think so when i first watched super rookie...but he sort of grew on me...haha

heard he's norn n raised in the states and can speak perfect english! but in the show, is he faking it??

Kim Yoon Jin really can speak English! She a New Yorker and she's one of the cast of the new drama in U.S. titled "LOST" . She's so lucky to be there in the series! I've watch it ones and she really speak english fluently!

HERE ARE SOME NEWS I GOT FROM HANCINEMA ABOUT HER:

Kim Yoon-jin Steals Spotlight in “Lost” (2005/05/26)

Actress Kim Yoon-jin has entered the spotlight recently for her role in the ABC hit miniseries “Lost,” captivating the hearts of the American audience with her fluent English skills and a scene where she appears in a bikini.

The Boston Globe, a local newspaper, wrote on May 22 that “Sun,” Kim’s character in “Lost,” who had spoken her lines solely in Korean in the early episodes of the drama, began to stand out from the rest of the cast for her extraordinary “inner strength” when she began to speak English in the second part of the series. In her interview with the newspaper, Kim said that since she began speaking English in the series, she has received numerous letters from her fans from all over world, who said they had no idea Sun could speak English.

The newspaper also dubbed Sun, who appeared in a bikini in one episode of the series, “the symbol of self-recovery.” In that particular story, Sun, who had lived her entire life obeying her husband “Jin-soo” (played by Daniel Kim), puts on a bikini one day and transforms into a confident woman who can stand up for her beliefs.

Kim says the scene where her character appears wearing a bikini was a meaningful one. Sun’s words -- “I am going to go and take a swim” -- said while dipping her feet into the water, signaled a turning point in the series’ storyline.

Kim Yoon-jin’s Star Rising on U.S. Network TV (2005/10/06)

Korean actress Kim Yoon-jin’s popularity in the U.S. is growing after her part in ABC's "Lost" became bigger in recent weeks. On Wednesday (local time), Kim made an appearance on the popular Los Angeles area Fox network morning show “Good Day LA".

The actress took part in the live broadcast for some 30 minutes, discussing everything from her role in "Shiri", which made her a star, to her current project "Diary of June".

It is a measure of Kim’s popularity that the previous day’s guest had been Cameron Diaz.

After filming scenes from "Diary of June" at Macarthur Park in LA's Koreatown, Kim was approached for her autograph by American crew ? further indication that she has the potential to become an international star. The film, which opens on Dec. 1, follows a detective trying to unravel the mysteries of a diary chronicling a series of murders that have not yet been committed.
