| Quotes |
"Korean women have been portrayed generally as submissive, but that's simply not true."
"I really love trees as well. They are so strong and everlasting. I hope to be like that too."
"Of course I don't need to do that, because I already know i'm very pretty." - she joked when Woo-sung complemented her about not looking at the mirror every second
"I can't read Chinese, so I can't care too much about what the reporters (negative articles) said about me"
I really enjoyed my work here, but do wish I would have had time to help at your orphans party. I love children. - talking to a Japanese media
I have exercised to the point where its become a habit, for example having 3 meals a day. I exercise so much that people
are saying things like "just watching you go to and fro the health club is getting annoying."
One cannot have everything they want in life. You have to purify your thoughts and work hard for something to be yours."

On Acting, Movies & Co-stars
"As an actress I should be able to try and take on any kind of role. Im just going to keep choosing films that I want to make."
"I'm an actress right? I was always seeking attention, whether it be how I act, my clothes and even the food I eat. But I realised that just because you do things to
get attention doesn't mean that you necessarily stand out in a crowd."
"I reckon that being an actor is something you inherit, or your born with. I enjoy what I do for a living so much that I think to myself, "where would I be without acting?" I
get the feeling I was born with a wonderful gift."
"My characters from movies such as 'White Valentine' and 'My Sassy Girl' are long gone now. If I wanted to do a similar role now, I would have to
force myself, it wouldnt come naturally to me anymore."
"I have this problem of getting a swollen face whenever I'm stress and tired. I was so stressed during filming, and ate quite a lot.
I hope that the viewers pay attention to my acting and the film and not my face."
"Actually, my role in the film "My Sassy Girl" is a far cry from my real personality. I don't know how I managed to become so rude during shooting... even Cha Tae-hyun was shocked.
After it finished, I found a lot of bruises on my body."
"Actually, I want to grab both (Jung Woo Sung and Lee Sung Jae), doesn't matter if its two men or three, I can accept all men. To me, one man is not enough, so besides the two of
them, I still want to find even more boyfriends."
I wanted to escape the trap of Jeon Ji Hyun movie. The story or message of the movie should be the focus, not Jeon Ji Hyun
alone. I think this film was well-made from that point of view.
"Korean movies can be distributed directly to Hollywood, so its regrettable that it has to be remade.
"Hollywood is not my final goal, whether I appear in a Hollywood film or work with a foreign director. I am a Korean actress
so Ill lose my place if I leave Korean film."
"I have worked with Jang Dong Gun together in one CF, but we are not that close.
What I admire about Dong Gun is he would not be affected/influenced by outside factors. He has a very special way of working.
He can overcome the pressure from outside. I would like to be like him."
"Andrew Lau is a terrific person. His style of working and his personality are both very open. He gave us actors plenty of artistic freedom.
There was ample space for us to flesh out our roles. I also think he's very cute."
"I feel a lot of burden as I haven't acted in a Korean film for a while, but I feel very good about the movie itself. Hwang Jung Min is a nice person
beyond being an actor and I am also learning a lot (about acting)."
"Actors also have to make decisions based on their thoughts, but I would choose a movie that my children can later watch."
"I actually smoked (for the role in A Man Once A Superman), and it wasn't as difficult as I imagined. But I put health above everything else,
and I asked myself if I really had to hurt my health for my career."
"Although luck was probably involved, I think it's destiny for an actor to 'meet' new work."

On Love & Romance
"I'm very greedy. I'm hoping to meet a man who combines the best of Woo Sung and Sung Jae!"
"I must be prepared at all times because the right one may appear anytime. Love can happen instantly, but you may miss it. I'd be
lying if i said that i've never been in love, but right now, i'm a woman waiting for love."
"I think love should be based on feeling. As long as the feeling is right, I'll go with it regardless of the guy's traits or qualities."
"I'm very emotional and I would kill myself if my beloved boyfriend died. There will be no reason to live without him. I dont think I could overcome the emptiness."

Cha Tae Hyun, "Jeon Ji Hyun is tall, so it didn't feel comfortable carrying her on my back."
Jung Woo Sung, "She has ambitions for work."
Jung Woo Sung, "I've never seen such actress who doesn't pay too much attention to her own appearance during filming, she's not like other actress
who like to look into the mirror all the time and she has matured a lot."
Lee Sung Jae, "She has a very good sensibility."
Lee Sung Jae, "Most actors tend to overact. But Jeon is different. She is a very smart actress. Ive actually learned a lot from her."
Jang Hyuk, "She is like a close sister to me."
Jo In Sung, "I've to be frank about this. Who is she? I always find her very beautiful whenever I see her. Oh, Jeon Ji Hyun is very beautiful."
Daniel Henney, "The concept of the commercial wasn't that simple, but she was extremely focused on her work, and very professional and I thought that if we could just act
together one more time, that it would be really great."
Andrew Lau, "Jeon Ji Hyun showed her English and Chinese skills with ease. I might have been the director, but I found the unique and mysterious colour
Ji Hyun gave to her character really appealing."
Andrew Lau, "After so many attending so many funtions continuosly how can u expect a tired person to squeeze a smile, besides, if someone smiles every second then there must be something
wrong with that person , Ji Hyun is not a fake person, she won't try to be pretendious and smile fakely."
Bill Kong (Film Mogul), "Jeon is just a phenomenon."
Kevin Cheng, "She's a very pretty girl and has talents. I watched My Sassy Girl three times and I hope we have the chance to cooperate."
Jane Shiang (Elle Magazine Editor), "She has a rare conbinaton of Purity, Innocence and Sexiness. That's a very rare and marvelous combination so she has a great and unique appeal to
all the readers of Elle magazine"
Yunho Uknow, "I hope to meet her one day and tell her 'I'm your fan!' to her face (in front of her)."
Lee Hyori, "I found someone faster (climbing a hill) than me. That is Jeon Ji Hyun. When I almost reach the peak, she's already coming down. I admit defeat."
Jang Hyuk, "People have this notion that men have to be macho and women have to be pretty and act pretty but if you look at Ji Hyun's character
in 'My Sassy Girl', she presents an honest, flawed character beautifully."
Andy Lau, "It's like your parents arranged a blind date for you, but when you arrive, you discover your date is (beautiful South Korean actress) Jeon Ji Hyun"
Jung Il Woo, "(If she's here right now) I'd ask for her number."
Jung Il Woo, I was asked who's my ideal girl and I said Jeon Ji Hyun nuna and many related articles were published repeatedly. We've been selected together as CF
models for a handphone but til now I still haven't met her. If we get the chance to meet, maybe Jeon Ji Hyun nuna will avoid me and thinks I'm a stalker? From now on I will
stop talking about Jeon Ji Hyun nuna. But still nuna, I want to meet you.
Hwang Jung Min, "At times she can be silly, but she is a very good person overall. Our teamwork is wonderful on set."
"(DBSK playing 'Ideal Girl' Game. They answer questions which will lead them to a box that will reveal their ideal girl.
Ji Hyun was revealed as Xiah Junsu's ideal girl)
Xiah: My Goddess!
Host: How do you feel right now?
Xiah: Thank you! But she has such a pretty face, how did she come down here (box E was for better body than face)
Host: She is pretty as well as having a good body.
Xiah: Thank you anyways!
Host: I can't introduce her to you though.
Hero: She's the girl Uknow favors.
Host: We know, as a matter of fact, I remember him saying that if he could get to spend two days with her, he couldn't ask
for anything else better.
