Let's be honest here, you want people to take notice of you at the start of your career, and not to forget you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest anhay59 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 If she will just accept a minor role, then I advise her to just stay in S. Korea and another drama with a popular hallyu male star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the96butterfly Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 IMO I dont mind HJW to be casted in a BIG production but a minor (not the main lead) decent role and can be seen in atleast 80% of the movie. I am pretty sure she can be noticed (aside from being a korean) she always try her best to excel as well. And yes I must add I hope they won't say that she is Japanese in the movie.But even if it's not a BIG production like Avatar and may not do well in box office as long as it's critically-acclaimed movie then I am good with it. Although since it's 20th Century Fox then it should be big! LOLbut i really am excited to see her working with Americans. LOL I don't think she would do a romantic film right? Although there is a high chance that HJW have picked an action movie I just feel like most of Asians are typecasted to do action movies in hollywood and we all know HJW can do more than that. Right?

kanzcech Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 class="at_ttl"The History Of Ha Ji Won's Hollywood Courtship Ha Ji Won met a Hollywood producer this week to talk about a possible future project but it's not the first time she has been to Hollywood. According to her entertainment agency, Sun and Moon Entertainment, the actress had a recent meeting with Jeffrey Godsick, the director of Twentieth Century Fox."She had a meeting with Twentieth Century Fox, but we cannot disclose the details," a Sun and Moon Entertainment representative told Yonhap News. But this meeting is only the next small step in Hollywood's courtship of the k-drama and k-movie star. She's had Hollywood meetings before. The actress already declined more than one Hollywood film offer to star in the 51-episode saeguk "Empress Ki." And that was a smart move as the drama led the ratings for the length of its duration. Before beginning "Empress Ki" Ha Ji Won was already signed with a talent agency in Hollywood. Last summer she became the first female Korean star to sign with The United Talent Agency, the Hollywood agency that represents Johnny Depp, Ewan McGregor, James McAvoy, Celine Dion, Nicholas Hoult, Gwyneth Paltrow, Daniel Radcliffe, Uma Thurman and Channing Tatum. According to Sun and Moon Entertainment she is the first female Korean star to sign with UTA. One reason the actress is so appealing to Hollywood studios is that she does her own stunts, so she's a natural for the kinds of roles that Angelina Jolie has become famous for. "My ideal female role model is someone who is not fragile," Ha Ji Won said. "I want to keep doing action scenes." When she takes on a role, she also learns whatever she needs to make that role more realistic. And that includes learning martial arts training, learning to box, belly dancing or improving her tennis skills. She swims, lifts weights, scuba dives and has a motorcycle license. Her interest in doing her own action scenes began after she played a stunt double in "Secret Garden" and that interest has not diminished. "I must have been a female warrior in a past life," she said. Ha Ji Won did her own stunts without a double for the drama "King 2 Hearts" and the film "Sector 7." She rode horses in Empress Ki and did her own martial arts scenes. For the film "The Huntresses," she mastered the art of belly dancing. Whatever Hollywood films were discussed this week, the actress cannot start any new projects right away as she is scheduled to begin filming "Chronicles of a Blood Merchant" in early June.Source: kdramastars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest larabn Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 @the96butterflyExactly dear, I don't want her to be in an action movie for this same reason of being typecast in an action movie that has little sentences to say and more jumping to do with the hair twisting with a chopsticks before fighting That's what I see hollywood giving some other Asian actresses in Hollywood movies. No, then I'd rather she has a meaningful role, whatever it was the lead or not, what's important is she gets recognized for her good acting that this role will show ... fingers crossed for a good project whatever it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libera Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 English Translation for the article below : " Quiz To Change The World"'s Cha Gwang Soo : " 하지원 Ha Ji Won is as refreshing and brisk like an fresh apple" Actor Cha Gwang Soo that collaborated with actress Ha Ji Won in the hit-making drama "Empress Ki' highly complimented the actress by revealing that Ha Ji Won is still lively despite of the tedious 48-houred filming session while making an appearance in MBC's TV show "Quiz To Change The World" lately. He continued, " I had actually asked (Ha Ji Won) about the secrets behind her great health and body state, and she told me to think positive and enjoy my work." The actor then said, " I heard that she went for medical check-ups at the hospital where she get amazing results, for her hair is aged 19 years old, whereas her skin is only aged merely 20 years old." ( Our eonnie is the BEST Dong-Ahn (means "baby-faced beauty" in Korean) indeed~! ) The programme host Kim Goo Ra then said jokingly, " Are you deifying Ha Ji Won right now?" Without hesitations, Cha replied, " Of course not. You would get to acknowledge that when you collaborate with her (Ha Ji Won). Albeit she is a junior, but still she is a great exemplary to me."http://sportsworldi.segye.com/Articles/EntCulture/Article.asp?aid=20140504020432&subctg1=05&cid=1140050000000Thanks to Alice InJiWonderland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest loverangel10 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hi hi I don't think I've introduced myself. I'm new on this forum and liked ha ji won since secret garden although I did watch 100 days with mr arrogant before. She's my fav Korean actress! For her Hollywood debut I'll like her to act in one of those marvel/dc comic movies like avengers, batman&superman etc which are guaranteed blockbusters, have action scenes and have sequels. I think that's a good start to her USA career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
