  1. Which drama made you fall in love with Choi Ji Woo for the first time

    Winter Sonata or Stairway to Heaven

    Share your memories below and thank you for watching this full documentary. 🤩🤩💖💖

  2. その透き通った美貌や演技力そして確固たるキャリアで語られる存在でありながら、プライベートでは自身の選択に誇りを持ち、旦那様のことなど匿名性を保ちつつも確かな愛情で家族を守り抜いていて、娘さんを抱いた母としての幸せいっぱいの穏やかな表情のジウ姫は、自身が歩んできた道の裏に隠された努力や思いは内に秘めて、今では育児と芸能活動を見事に両立し、ジウ姫が持つ揺るぎない実力と人間的な温かさは、韓国だけではなく他国からも多く支持されてきて、特に日本からこれほどまでに切望された韓国の女優さんは、今も昔もジウ姫だけですね。

  3. She acted like the role of woman who has values in the character. Second 20 was the best I like. Winter sonata was the second best of all my dreams of Korean films.

  4. Я думаю,что всем интересно увидеть Чхве Джи У с мужем,ну,что это за такая тайна?
