From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Kang Hye-jeong is a young Korean actress who starred in movies such as Oldboy and the sexual dramedy The Rules of Dating. Kang is part of a slowly emerging new generation of Korean actors in which genuine acting and emotional honesty take precedent over manicured good looks and acting clichés.
Kang is especially memorable in her role as an innocent yet sexually frank young girl opposite Min-sik Choi in Oldboy, where she shows that unlike the majority of her predecessors, she is willing to expose herself both physically (to partake in graphic sexual scenes) and emotionally (to deliver some of the most realistic and hard-hitting performances in Korean cinematic history). In addition, Kang lacks the traditionally valued (and often plastic surgery-induced) features of mainstream actresses' looks. The combination of natural good looks and visual versatility (in Oldboy she sports both makeup-free and highly polished looks to equal success), in addition to the sucker-punch honesty of her acting, makes her a very promising actress.
