I haven't seen her in a drama before, although I've been meaning to watch What's Up Fox. Must get on it, I really like the attitude that comes off from these pictures. Hot. <3 God, it must be hard to lose your children because your in-laws are that powerful. I'm really glad she's still acting, and not another celebrity to add to last year's list.

I seriously love this woman here.. Her awesome acting aside, i love how real a woman she is.. She indeed went thru alot in her life but managed to keep a frank and simple mentality.. She always seems to be very true and honest to her feelings and thats wat makes her attractive..

dang. her life is a drama.

I like her leather outfit. The nun thing is seriously weird.

She's a chameleon and a good actress. She was funny in What's Up Fox and a tough but hurt cop in H.I.T.

Fighting.

Tough stuff. :/

i don't feel sympathy for her...she's no different...she's undergone so much plastic surgery to be miss Korea and then married a rich chaebol and got a divorce, what's so sad about that? It takes two to fight and divorce. I don't know if she's a good person or not but seems to me she tried really hard to fool reality and that life turned stale

whoa she looks a bit like kim yun-jin doing lady vengeance (pink eyeshadow.)

Mindy, any kind of divorce is going to be hard. It's a bit harsh to say that she's tried really hard to fool reality when we don't even know what her life is really like and who she is.

It was especially controversial because it involved the Samsung family. Go Hyung Jr just finished Sandglass when she was linked with her ex-husband. It's not unusual for actresses to have to suspend their career once marrying into powerful families. And she was marrying into THE Chaebol of Korea.

She looks fabulous in those pictures. It also looks like she's slimmed down a bit too. I wonder how many of her mannerisms will come through her performance. The way she pauses and kinda zones out before replying. The way she seems to smile with her front teeth.

agnes/agnus means 'lamb'
agnus dei means 'lamb of god'

i love me some fros 'n ruffs. no sarcasm, truly.

The concept is cool. The image is weak. The last one's post is really bad. And her face seems dazed?

But like I said, I love the clothes and concept.

It definitely takes 2 to tango for a marriage AND a divorce. And I feel terrible for her because at what price did she have to pay that she lost complete custody of her kids and can not even acknowledge them publicly.

Literally, acting is her life now, nothing much in between. If she was to remarry, if she can considering what she agreed to in the divorce settlement.

Although it wasn't revealed to the public, by all accounts (rumors, etc) she gained a hefty sum for it.

I never thought her marriage life was sad. But i'm glad she divorced her husband. Women should not lose their identity. It's been fought for centuries already. The people that should change are those chaebol or rich people. They should remember that the reason they're rich were because of the Mass people who spends their hard earn money to buy this rich people's business products. Nobody got rich on their own.

Yes, too bad on the kids. But for sure when they get off age, they will still seek for their Mom. A Mom is a Mom and nobody can take it.

I like the way she can still laugh even through her hardship. Who cares if she got plastic surgery, eventually all women will think about it eventhough most might not undergo with it.

it doesn't always take 2 to divorce. to sign the papers, yeah, obviously. but that doesn't mean both sides necesarily want it. and divorce is hard, no matter what the circumstances are, especially if there are kids in the marriage.

am i the only one not feeling the eye-makeup in that top picture? idk. i just don't like it. at all.

Probably worth mentioning, that Korean marraige leverages custody rights more in favor of the father than what we're accustomed to in the States. It's almost a forgone conclusion that the chaebol would win all custody rights. It seems cruel to take visitation rights . . . but divorce is messy stuff.

In any case, that was about 5 years ago. Since then, she's made a successful comeback and she's among the most well paid actors in the industry. The"Go Hyung Jung" character is an archetype, easily conveying both a Pure/Regal Image and a Spunky/Sassy Image, unafraid of telling off and slapping men. Of course, Queen Seon-Deok would be a turn away from that, but the knowledge of that archetypal image still informs the performance.

Plus she's one of the few 30-something actresses who has consistently gotten cast opposite much younger actors. And I mean, opposite actors that are 8-9 years younger than her. It's as if those 10 years behind the conglomerate never happened! Through her mid-30s, she has sustaining well an identity as A-list lead/romantic lead.

i simply love Go Hyun Jung. no matter what she does, i will love her and support her all the way.

Before I heard all this stuff about her.. i actually liked her.. but.. not anymore..

There was a rumor going around that when she was filming Spring Days.. she slept w/ Jo In Sung.
And when her mom told her to stop "going around town"... she shoved a bottle full of pills in her mouth..
Well.. you never know what's the truth and what's fake, but after her divorce.. i don't really feel sad for her... idks... :[

"she slept w/ Jo In Sung."

Wow . . . Jo In Sung slept with a woman?!?

(i kid i kid. but seriously, Jo In Sung slept with a woman?!? ;) )

Post 17

It's true story? I never heard about that rumor.

The divorce was really, really ugly stuff. Like Charles and Diana ugly. And as ". . . " pointed out, there were persistent rumors flying around Spring Day, even though it very well may have influenced by Samsung. Who knows?

BTW, Go Hyung Jung is a major spokeswoman for LG. BIG middle finger to Samsung! :D

Off topic: There were some rumors that an early draft of Snow Queen was based on a daughter from a powerful member the Samsung Group, who committed suicide. Of course, if it was true, that got all rewritten later.

It's funny because every time I see Go Hyun-jung, I'm always surprised by her amazing figure. The first time I watched her was in "H.I.T.," and she was pretty covered up and tomboyish. The woman has a killer body. I love the last picture of her.

I really like Go Hyun-Jung, I thought she was really good in What's up Fox? A kind of effortless acting yet it shines thru and her chemistry with everyone in the drama was unbelivably comfortable.

About her rumour on Spring Day set, no one knows for sure...

I dunno if its a trend or something or a force of reality in Korean society, but I realize all the IT girls of yesterday, all seems to deal with nasty divorces. Its really sad... Shin Eun-kyung(of My Wife is a Gangster fame), the late Choi Jin Shil(RIP) and Go Hyun-Jung... Somewhere in my film-making galaxy mind, I ever thought if to cast them all 3 together in a movie about women power will be awesome...

Regardless, I am glad these ladies all stand up for themselves...

i like her in What's up fox? she look natural and similar elder sister.
After, i watched A spring day, H.I.T, Women on the beach and news about her.
Now, i'm waiting her new serie "Queen Seon Deok"

I really like her in Spring Day. Jo In Sung even mention that she is the only actress that he want to act with again. If I not mistaken. I love to see their kiss together. But then I think, that drama probably Jo In Sung character look sane.

I even drool everytime I saw her LG ad at my place.

"Jo In Sung even mention that she is the only actress that he want to act with again"

He doesn't want to work with Ha Ji Won or Jeon Do Yeon again? :(

i never heard Jo in sung Slept with her , yeah maybe in Drama.
seems she has a really tough life
Go hyun Jung like Jo in Sung ( maybe kind Dongsaeng or Drolling Around ) i read that From one article

many people stress after marrying someone rich then divorce mariah carey For Example.
What about kim hee seon she married chaebol too

idks.. i heard people talk about how she deflowered all these young fellows..
but you don't know the truth.. cause it's only those who are involve that know for sure.. lol

i like her as an actress.. but.. as the person she is... not really favoring towards her..

it's funny how some of you people are making assumptions and passing judgments about her character and who she "really" is when you can't possibly know what her life has been like or what she went through. And all these rumors that you people are throwing around are merely that, rumors. The majority of rumors that you hear about celebrities are completely false, probably posted by some netizens who want to make trouble and then spread by some gullible soul who believes everything that's posted on the web.
In any case, I can only judge her on her body of work and she seems to be a solid actress; not brilliant in any case, but a good actress...which is a lot more than can be said for a lot of other actresses in dramas.
And I love the photoshoot.

yeah,,, go hyun jung rocks,,,, its like she can do anything... whatever rumor she's into i hope she can pass them all and wishing her all the best in life....

Whatever it is I still love her.... I like her in Foxy Lady and now in queen seon deok playing the antagonist. I think we are not the position to judge her for who she is whether this woman had been through plastic surgery or had slept with another actor. Who cares?! Duh... Who the freakin angel are you to judge a person you dont personally know.

she looks so much younger on her age

She is incredible in Queen Seon Dok!

I love GHJ. The first time I watched her was in Queen Seon Deok. Her good acting really amazes me every time I am watching her in the screen. Because of that I used to watch her former dramas like Foxy Lady and now looking for a HIT dvd, hope to find one.
The news about her divorce really saddened me. But then, I believe there's a greater reason why she has to chose to divorce rather than to live an unhappy life. The lost of her custody to her kids is the most painful thing of being a mum. My only prayer is to win her kids back to her arms.
Mishil is really beautiful. She has beauty, brains and CHARISMA. There's no doubt why she got a lot of awards. She did great in every role she is portraying. The will of heaven is now on her side. She has a lot of recognitions not just in Korea but around the globe. I also believe that she is a good person too. As I read and watched her previous interviews, she is very compassionate and transparent with her feelings. She is now more matured. My prayers are always with KHJ! Hope to meet her personally. :-)

i super love you ko hyun jung :D though your character is a villian i really like you a lot :DD

I saw her first in Queen Seon Deok, first I didn't really like her because of her character Mishil, but then, after i watched the first episode of What's Up Fox?, I liked her..

@jenyoung7_philippines - alam ko Pinay ka.. pero mapapanuod mo anh H.I.T. dito : http://www.mysoju.com/hit/

libre lang kailangan mo lang ng Internet at Computer at panahon..

i would like to say hi! to GO HYUN JUNG ang congratulate her for the last BAEKSANG AWARD. You really deserve that award for playing the role of LADY MI SHIL.........! I hope someday, you can visit here in Philippines

เห็นเธอครั้งแรก ในบทของ มีซิล ฉันรู้สึกว่า
ผู้หญิงคนนี้มีความน่าสนใจเป็นอย่างมาก
และเธอก็ร้ายกาจ สุดๆ

แต่พอได้ดูwhat's up fox? แล้วรู้สึก ปลื่มเธอขึ้นมาทันที
สรุปแล้วคือชอบเธอคนนี้มากๆๆๆๆๆ

As i was back-reading all the posts here in this forum, I cant help but to react to MINDY's reaction...

For you Mindy, not to offend you or what, but i think it was harsh of you to judge her like that. You personally dont know what really happened to their marriage. Be a little considerate, won't you?...Sometimes, rich & powerful families can make or break you...we just dont know what they did to GHJ...we might never know if they were mean to GHJ...just come think of it.

And to you, Ms Ko Hyeong-Jeung, If miraculously you happened to read this post, please dont mind these people, who insanely judged you by merely believing in hearsay.They are not worth listening to. Always look at the brighter side of life. Remember, "When God closes a door, He opens a window."...Remember also that there are people who loves & cares for you no matter what. ( family & friends who were always around you ), and fans around the world who believes in you...Just do the right thing & everything will fall in the right place and in the right time time. Believe me...=) ...God Bless!

the first time i saw her i got the feeling that she's a good actress and i was right when i watched queen seondok i got hooked because of her the way she portrayed the role of mishil it was very good..her expressions is superb and her acting is the best..she may not be lucky with her personal life but she have a beautiful career ahead of her so let's just support her .

@ Mindy

Seriously, even among close friends you cannot go around judging them without knowing full well what's going on in their life. Therefore, judging someone you haven't met before is completely pointless. Also, you are the most foolish person ever if you believe everything the media says about someone. And even if (through some miracle) some rumors are true, the paparazzi and reporters many times do a lot of things to make the celebrities react in a compromising manner just so they have something to write on the front page. Take Lady Diana for instance. She begged the paparazzi and reporters to leave her alone on the day of her father's funeral but instead they posted the pictures of her crying on the front page of the newspaper. Overall, your post only proves that: you have a terribly childish atittude, no tact, no common sense and so on and so forth.

@ the other fans and (probably, hopefully) Go Hyun Jung

GHJ became one of my favorite actresses through her role in Queen Seondeok, Lady Mishil, since this was the first series I've seen her act in. I must say, at first, I did not really believe it would be something this impressive. Her role is astonishing, captivating, fascinating. I cannot help but praise her acting skills. I fell in love with her character because even though she was portrayed as a villain, she had many qualities and a unique personality and mentality. It simply made her stand out the most in my opinion.

The Queen Seondeok series only urged me to watch more of her productions. I truly believe she is amazing.

I am sorry to hear of her real life being this tragic but let's face it. Most celebrities live unfulfilled lives in the marriage area. Even the non-famous people go through harsh times. Yesterday, my favorite singer from my country committed suicide despite her having a beautiful family with her second husband. The doctor only now revealed that she was in a deep depression ever since she divorced her first husband and it seems that now, after finally becoming a mother (which is something she wanted with all her heart) she simply couldn't take it anymore. That's why I admire GHJ. I hope that she can overcome all these hardships and live her life to the fullest. As for the unpleasant rumors, of course, we do not like them but then again, it's none of our business.

Best of regards, Ms. Go Hyun Jung :)

my name is leyla.Im turkhs . I love ko hyun .

I m leyla . Im from istanbul. I love you.A lot of, successful, and, beautifull, somebody,When it* play from the side.Magnificient, queen, and, other, film, role, very good, do, see you later.....

I have an aching question regarding a line I read in the article: ''she married a chaebol (business tycoon), but his family didn’t approve of her as a mere actress and forced her to retire''

How can the family force her to retire?Didn't she have a word to say?
Even if she was not as rich as them,when a woman gets married,she is supposed to be treated as an equal in the family,how can somebody impose on her to retire?
Aren't acresses in Korea respected?What is the position of a woman compared to a man in Korea?What I mean is, is she supposed to do as she is told?

And when her mom told her to stop “going around town”… she shoved a bottle full of pills in her mouth..
does that mean ?,, that shes somehow rebel to her parents ?

i knew her only last month from What's Up Fox. then i sought QSD and Daemul and am still looking for her other films. you can say she's the devil if you want; i'd still love her!

i love her whatever she does in her personal life..she is amazing and very good actress and very talented..

for all those FUCKING HATERS of Go Hyun-jung .. please STFU.you know nothing about the person that you are judging.We love Go Hyun-jung.

If ghj here it, go hyun jung will very proud with you all, support go hyun jung always, and stay for love and miss her everytime you can apen your aye's

I love Ko Hyun Jung....I don't what her past.....I still love her.....excellent job as an actress and a person....
