I always think she's overrated in term of her acting. No question about her beauty. But ppl seems to focus too much on her look.
Ha.
Speaking fluently english is not sth that can be formed overnight no matter how hard you try, this thing takes time so wish her best luck. And yeah, ditto with Kim Tae Hee. I always put them together. haha

Hm...I don't know about this either. She's pretty, and I'm glad that she is a "natural beauty" and will represent Korea and its stars in the correct way. But acting wise, I'm not sure if she'll make hollywood turn its attention towards Korea.

I've never been wowed by her acting abilities, and what about her english?!

thanks javabeans~. Well I was just wondering because there are many ppl and I also who believe that most korean actors are plastic so when you said natural beauty... it was kind of ~. anyway thanks for the info

is it true that she is a natural beauty? i wonder...

There is a relevance to the 'Toad's Sadness' sequence, albeit a small one. Like it's been mentioned, Hee-Kyung says that she's gotten a part in a production of what I think is Korea's version of Cinderella. In the folktale version, there are two main girls, one sweet and good, the other the greedy and lazy stepsister. Yong-su asks if she's gotten either part, but she chooses to be mysterious and says that she's "something very helpful and important to [the Cinderella character]."

In the folktale, various animals help Cinderella out when the stepmother demands impossible tasks. When she's told to fill a big water urn-thingie even when there's a huge crack on the bottom, the friendly talking toad offers to swim to the bottom and hold the crack closed with its body. There goes Hee-Kyung's glamorous part in the play.

I liked that they added it, though, personally. It was a good way of bringing something that happened in passing back up, and I admit I laughed. The way they set it up it seemed like a big amazing opportunity or job offer for her, was made even bigger by her mysterious airs, and then fell hilariously short - kind of like Hee-Kyung herself.

Anyway, sorry for the dissertation on Korean folktales, but I thought I'd help out. I very much enjoy your recaps, by the way. :)

I am loving this show more and more

It feels like Song Hye Gyo isn't like all "I WANT TO GET INTO HOLLYWOOD!" unlike most actors. She seems very relaxed about the idea

This one got to me T.T
