Just the mere fact that high schools have loads of pre-tests before the actual test say a lot about the quality of education in Korea. Seoul National University is the best university in Korea and just by passing and graduating from that school must say a lot about your intelligence. AAAND, people in Korea give a lot of importance to education. I can't say that confidently about the Americans (nor us Filipinos, sadly. :P) Although Kim Tae Hee is not that much of a brilliant actress, her charm, good track record and stunning good looks brought her to her success. I agree that if she had good acting skills, wouldn't that be a pain for the human race? ;) Not everyone can have everything, but with KTH, it's thisclose to that. :)) I have watched Korean movies with the lead roles having nose bleeds just by studying for the College Exams.

I wasn't raised in Korea but I was born there, in the capital, in fact. So naturally, I wanted to know more. I learned after about two hours(yeah, that's it. I'm kind of lazy.... ^^) that the amount of studying done in Korea, in any of the well known Asian countries(although Korea isn't as widely known as Japan or China), is much MUCH more studying than done here in the US(in one article,it was stated that the amount of out-of-school study time in Korea is more than four times the amount in America). In fact, one of my friends had to move back to Korea after about two years in America and from an email, I heard she was studying three years above grade level.....and it was normal over there. Not to mention the fact that over there, most schools(I thought it was all at first then heard differently) only have one day with no school; some still have hours of study or tutors in their free time. All in all, to get into such a good, well known college in a place like that would be very, very hard. .....at least, that's what I think..... *Crawls into a random hiding place only to bump into gramps and thunderbolt* It’s amazing to me that Korea is so underestimated LYNda.

Good look is one thing but good talent in acting is one thing. I'm happy that the commenters is are being objective. She sure is pure beauty but in terms of acting there is much more talented actress out there. Anyhow, she can improve in her acting. Her brother on the other hand was so marveleous. He is one of my very favourite actors. Still young but very deep, intense and excellent acting. Good Looks doesn’t mean good acting. Good look is one thing but good talent in acting is one thing.
