Park Shin-hye, D Young Counter Part of BoA?

well, b4 anyone else disagree and kill me... plz bear w/ me... i know this two korean stars are definitely different from each other

at d present, Park Shin-hye is 16 years of age (17 years old-korean age) & BoA, 19 years old (21 years old-korean age)
when i watched Park Shin-Hye in 'Stairway to Heaven,' the young version of d leading actress, for me she doesn't look dat good, but after i've seen her more, i realized she's really cute and pretty...

anyway, dat's not d point... d point is Park Shin-Hye resembles Kwon BoA when BoA was still young (like 13-16 years old) maybe because of d shape of their face & also d cleft chin, so i see BoA in Park Shin-hye...
also, if u'll see some old BoA clips (before & after her debut as a singer from 2000-2002), there are lots of facial expressions they both have and d way they speak, if u'll observe both of them then u'll see wat i mean (for Park Shin-hye clips, just watch 'Stairway to Heaven' & 'Heaven's Tree')...



===================================================================

ok, here's some info about d two stars



BoA

Just the Basics
English & Korean Names: Boa Kwon, BoA Kwon, Kwon BoA, kwonboa
Also known as: Gwon Bo-a, Kwon Bo-a, Gwon Boa
Commonly known as: BoA
Nick Name: Kkam-shi
Name Pronounced As: Bo Ah Kwon, Kwon Bo Ah
Birthdate: November 5, 1986

Note: BoA is 19, by conventional American standards. However, rather than the standard aging system that we all are familiar with, Koreans use a system unique to their country. While we count how many years we have lived, Koreans count the number of years we have been alive. Therefore, the year in which you are born is your first year, the next is your second year, and so on. Once you are born, you are automatically considered a year old. Birthdays are still celebrated in Korea, however, you are not considered any older. Koreans are the same age throughout the year, and are officially a year older when the new year comes around. For example, if you were to be born in December, you would be considered two years old once the new year arrives. Thus, everyone born in the same year as you is the same age as you. If you wish to figure out your Korean age, simply add a year to your age if you have had your birthday this year, or add two years if you have not. She's 21 in Korea and 19 in the US.

her latest series, 'Heaven's Tree/Tree of Heaven' is one of my fav k-drama...

and i luv this series, she really acted well on this and cried a lot from d very beginning up to d end...

this is a must watch... u know i'm not into "heartbreaking dramas" but 'Heaven's Tree' really caught my attention...

the two main characters, Park Shin-hye & Lee Wan, will capture every viewers attention bcoz they really portrayed well d deep, innocent & pure feelings-- love, of d two lovers (at a young age, 18-20 & 20-22 years old)...

here's some info and pix of her 'Heaven's Tree/Tree of Heaven' k-series with Lee Wan


Lee Wan (이완) and Park Shin Hye (박신혜) have been casted for the new drama, 'Heaven's Tree.'

'Heaven's Tree,' the filming of which took place in January of 2006, was the finale of the Heaven Series by Lee Jung Soo PD-- Beautiful Days, Stairway to Heaven and now Heaven's Tree-- and was 10 episodes long.

It's a heartbreaking love story between two siblings --their Korean father and Japanese mother remarried to each other and thus the two have become step siblings. In the drama, Lee Wan (이완) plays Yoon Suh (윤서) who as a child, shows great potential as an artist, but as he grows up he leaves home and joins the "Yakouzas" or becomes one of the 야쿠자 (i believe it was a notorious gang in Japan), but keeps his step sister deep in his heart.

Hana (하나), his japanese step sister, doomed to share the ill-fated love relationship with Lee Wan, was played by Park Shin Hye (박신혜) who also acted in 'Stairway to Heaven,' 'To be cute or to be crazy' and etc.

Heaven's Tree was written by Moon Hee Jung and Kim Nam Hee who also wrote Stairway to Heaven, through which Kwon Sang Woo became one of the Hanryu (한류) stars. It was aired in February of 2006 after SBS's 'My Girl.'

all in all, though d two have some similarities, but BoA is still a lot way cuter & prettier than Park Shin-hye

for Park Shin-hye fans, don't curse me plz!!!!
it's just my opinion...
but yeah... who knows wat will Park Shin-hye will be after 3 years...
just like BoA who became so popular after 2-3 years after debuting as a singer, and dat one of BoA's assets is her talent & her pretty face ...
