Jun Ji-hyun (born October 30, 1981) also known as Gianna Jun or Jeon Ji-Hyun, is a South Korean actress and model, famous for her roles in My Sassy Girl, Il Mare, Windstruck and Blood: The Last Vampire.
Jun was born in Seoul, South Korea, and studied in the Department of Theater and Film at Dongguk University. Jun’s childhood dream was to be an airhostess, but at the age of 16, a neighbor introduced her to modeling. She began her career as a fashion model for Echo Magazine in 1997.
After appearing in a number of TV sitcoms, her movie debut came in White Valentine (1999). This was followed by a role in Il Mare (2000), which proved to be a success. An American remake of Il Mare, The Lake House, was released 14 June 2006. However, her biggest breakthrough was in My Sassy Girl (2001), a romantic comedy which bought her international recognition, and won her a Best Actress award at the Daejong Film Festival in 2002. In 2004, she starred in the film Windstruck, a South Korean fantasy-romantic comedy which was directed by Kwak Jae-yong. The film was also another major success and was the 8th-highest grossing Korean film of 2004. In 2006, she was also in the movie Daisy. In 2008, she was also in the film A Man Who Was Superman.
Ji Hyun worked closely with CJ Entertainment, particularly with the distribution of Windstruck, The Uninvited, and A Man Who Was Superman.
In 2009, she made her English-language film debut when she starred as Saya in Blood: The Last Vampire, which was filmed in China and Argentina in March 2007. It was during filming and before the March 2009 release that she adopted the Westernized name Gianna Jun. The film was Jun’s first official action film and was a “drastic” change in her image from previous films. -Wikipedia

Why we think she’s hot:
In our opinion, the actress and model who is better known as Jeon Ji-hyun or Jun Ji-hyun, is one of the most unknown and underrated celebrities around- assuming you don’t live in South Korea that is. Most American’s may have gotten their first glimpse of Jeon after she westernized her name to Gianna Jun, and starred as Saya in Chris Nahon’s action-horror thriller, Blood: The Last Vampire. We love her for the same reason we love a lot of Scorpios, meaning she excels at waxing innocent, when there’s oh-so-much defiant, playful whimsy behind those eyes.
