This is a letter written to the Editor of The Seoul Times published on 30 June 2004. It is good to know more of JW fans.
"Choi Ji-Woo, the Audrey Hepburn of Korea"
In "Mr. Duke," there was a charisma, elegance, and an aura about Choi Ji-Woo that reminded me of the late Audrey Hepburn and the late prima ballerina Dame Margot Fonteyn (even though Choi Ji-Woo majors in modern dance, not ballet). The most incredible thing was that, I had never seen Choi Ji-Woo dance, and for years I had not thought of Audrey Hepburn and Margot Fontyen.
Audrey Hepburn was one of my late father's favorite actresses. Watching Choi Ji-Woo in "Mr. Duke" triggered my memories of three persons who were long gone, making me nostalgic, stirring sentiments that brought a few tears to my eyes.
For these reasons, I find Choi Ji-Woo unique, remarkable, and sensational. In my attempt to describe her, I could only sum her up in my own words: "Choi Ji-Woo, the Audrey Hepburn of Korea." Wouldn't it be great, if Choi Ji-Woo could act in a movie like the English movie "Fame" or "Moulin Rouge" (starring Nicole Kidman), but has a different storyline and plot to it?
As personal commitments may not permit me the time to watch all of Choi Ji-Woo's shows, and follow her career closely; therefore, I hope to take this opportunity to commend Choi Ji-Woo on her uniqueness, her remarkable and sensational talent as an actress. Describing her in my own words: "Choi Ji Woo, the Audrey Hepburn of Korea."

Thanks, Sally for sharing the article from Sandra. And Kudos to Sandra whose article has made it to Seoul Times. Hope Ji Woo could get to read this about her.
Audrey Hepburn is also my favourite star (remembered her well in My Fair Lady movie), and she well deserved the recognised accolade of being a "classic" beauty. Ya, I echo Sandra's sentiment - it would be great if JW could act in a movie like "Fame" to show off her other talent of dancing ~~~~~
