she is gorgeous! The first series I watched of her was Full House because my friends didn't like her when they watched Hotelier and All-In... so I didn't rent them either... but I bought Full House because I loved Bi(Rain) in Sangdoo and wanted to watch it... and I loved SHK!! I was disappointed that she was the female lead because people said she did only serious series and that she wasn't that great an actress anyway... just a pretty face... but when I watched, I laughed so much! She's so good and funny... and she was so cute without being annoying. And her crying scenes were so convincing (not that they made me cry, but they were so good!) I then rented All-in and she was great! Annoying character, but she was great. I see why my friends wouldn't like her, but I love her, she's a great actress
the only people that don't like her are the jealous ones. Girls are really jealous creatures by nature. She's extremely beautiful and sweet (even in real life) and has all these leading men love her.. so of course all other females will be naturally jealous of her. Her upcoming movie that she's shooting right now "Hwang Jini" I hope it will be good! I hear she went through a month of preperation for it before shooting. She's very humble and down to earth in real life. She doesn't wear any make up and she just likes to wear very simple t-shirt and jeans. But all the girls are envious of her because she is the most beautiful when she is like that. Her staff is always in awe of her because instead of them having to cater to her.. she caters THEM a lot. She would be the first one to admit she wasn't a very good actress in Autumn's tale (since it was her first leading role at the tender age of 17 or so). And her part in Hotelier was a small one but she wanted something different. She did a lot of other series too by the way. I think she has shut a lot of those jealous people up.. about her being a mediocre actress. She won best actress award for All In AND Full House. She won many other awards too but those were the biggest. And her being an annoying in a drama is not her fault but the scriptwriter's. She's done more than a perfect job in portraying what the character is supposed to be. Especially in Full House.
I hope her new movie Hwang Jini becomes a huge blockbuster hit. Her career depends on it now because there were two other versions of Hwang Jini recently. And the drama series version just won all these awards plus the "Hwang Jini"actress (Ha ji won) of the drama version won "best actress" (I really don't like her..she's not pretty (even with a ton of makeup and looks very ugly with out make up.. i've seen her with less make up and it was pretty shocking), nor that much of a good actress and she looks like a total biatch).
The media, critics and audiences are all prepped to compare SHK's movie version and the already well liked HJW's drama version.
Her first movie "My Girl and I" aka "Blue alert" aka "Green alert" flopped so her movie career depends on Hwang jini.
In an interview though she knew her character in Blue alert was too simple. She said it was easy for her because it didn't require much acting. But she did it because of her cautious nature. She didn't want to jump in without testing the waters first. It was her first movie. She had a zillion lead movie role offers since 17 or 18 years old but she turned them down constantly because she wanted to know what real love felt like first. She didn't want to pretend to know when she didn't. That's why it took her so long to film her first movie. She's extremely mature and humble for her age.. Everyone around her gets surprised about that.
There are a lot of rumors of her and Bi.. However, both adamently claim to be just friends. Bi says it's hard for him to maintain a girlfriend because of his schedule. Which is understandable. But he is known to have a zillion "girls" wanting him around him who either work for or with him. He travels everywhere with beautiful stylists, models, dancers etc. who knows what goes on out of the country out of people's eyes. He's been rumored to have a one night stand with Lee Hyori. He says he can remain faithful to his girlfriend.. but he is also groomed to be good at p.r. and also a good actor. Who knows? I hope SHK finds her true love soon and marries. But it better be someone who will always love her only and will always remain faithful to her emotionally and action-wise. LBH her ex, was the one to break off their previous relationship stating it was because he wanted to get married right away and she wanted to wait a bit (she was something like 20 at the time). And then he date Choi Ji woo right after their break up. (Right after he said to the media he still loved SHK and will always keep her in his memories.. or something cheesy like that) Supposedly it was a really difficult time for SHK. I also heard rumors that LBH was extremely domineering and demanding. She wasn't allowed to make any decisions on her own. From small trivial things to career choices. He wanted her to quite acting once she married him right away too. I think it was a good thing LBH broke up with SHK.
Someone claimed to have seen SHK at his vegas concert at another forum. If they are in love with each other.. Bi better not hurt her!
