Synopsis:

"When I was six months old, I dropped from the sky - the lone survivor of a deadly Japanese plane crash. The newspapers named me Heaven. I was adopted by a wealthy family in Tokyo, pampered, and protected. For nineteen years, I thought I was lucky. I'm learning how wrong I was.

They say your life begins on your wedding day. Here's what happened to mine: I lost the person I love most; I learned that everything I knew about my family was a lie; now I'm being hunted. I must fight back... or die. My life ended that day. The old Heaven is gone. I am samurai girl." (taken from the back cover of the original book that the series was based on by Carrie Asai)

After that she also joined the Real World/RoadRules Challenge the Inferno II as one of the Good Guys. She was a pretty strong competitor and the only girl left to compete with the guys from her team ultimately winning 20 or 30 grand.

She was also in "Days of Our Lives" as Cordy Han for 10 episodes in 2007

CSI NY and more...

and she's also doing some modelling

Her latest project is the Dragonball movie, she'll be playing Chi Chi

I'm pretty much up for anything asian in America so yea, looking forward to it. But what I have in mind if like Samurai Fiction and The Seven Samurai. But I doubt its going to be that traditional. (>_<)

come to think of it, i think it could be becuase of the Hiro in Heroes xD

it's not fair though.. hiko sounds kinda.. i dunno... weird?? souds kinda girly and childish to me, lol.

[Guest MariYEH]

I cannot wait to see this. http://abcfamily.go.com/abcfamily/path/sec...rl_OAPFirstLook

[Guest .moony.]

I cant stand her face for some reason...i thought she looked familiar when i saw the trailer, so shes the one from the real world...

[Guest z00ey]

ahh the trailers annoy me for some reason.

i remember jamie! but is it just me.. or does her nose look different o_o;

[Guest pyang]

I just watched the premiere and I like it. Can't wait to see part2 tomorrow. I want to go read the book now.

[Guest Lindoodoo]

Gah~ I just watched it like an hour ago and I really like it.

But for some weird reason, I don't like the plot that much. o_o

I went to IMDB to read about the series, and in the bulletin board for it, the only thing people were complaining about (not all, just many) is that none of the actors are Japanese. -.- They'd be really mad if this was old old Hollywood and most of the roles were being played by caucasian actors. People who have those complaints (and I think one or two people there might have mentioned it) don't realize that the actors don't really care if they are playing a different Asian ethnicity from their own. I was kind of suprised no one was saying anything bad about Brendan Fehr being in there, especially if they didn't read the books.

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but I didn't read the books myself--so know little about the story-- what is Jack Yang's character in the story--is 'Hiko' her brother?

[bebemui]

omgoshh I've been wanting to watch this because I am a hugee fan of Brendan Fehr, but it's not showing in Canada I don't think..and I've watched the preview and it looked interesting too.

[Guest res0nate]

So I sat here wondering what the hell this was about, only to realize that Kiebler and Chung are in it.

Watching it now.
