she was extremely beautiful in her early dramas and in the drama my sweetheart, my darling… But I LOVED her as Princess Sunhwa in Seodongyo or Seodong’s song. (is it spelled Seodong or Suhdong? i’ve seen both).
I felt like towards the middle she lost a lot of her playful personality.. (the scriptwriter’s choice) but I guess it couldn’t be helped since her character was always in a tight spot. I think she regains a bit of it back towards the end though. But Seodong’s Song was probably THE most romantic epic story I have ever seen. Especially becaused it is based on a true historical story of the real King and Queen.. and the song really did exist at that time.
I didn’t like her in Mr. Goodbye that much. I felt the scriptwriter didn’t give her much to do. Plus I don’t know why but she didn’t look as pretty in that drama. I can’t put my finger on it.. but she looked strange… was it her make up? hair.. i don’t know. I saw her recently though and she’s back to being very beautiful. ^ ^
I really like her matched up with Jo Hyun Jae in Seodong’s Song. They are so cute together.. His maturity and seriousness with her cute affection and playfulness.
