Jeon Ji-Hyun is top Korean Female



We know that Korean names are difficult to pronounce, but is it necessary to change your name when you come to Hollywood? Well, Jun Ji Hyun thinks so, so she changed her name to Gianna Jun. FYI, this is actually the second time she changed her name.
Her real name is Wang Ji Hyun, but she changed it to Jun Ji Hyun because the last name Wang made her sound Chinese and now, she's changing it to Gianna Jun, but why such an Italian name? Does she want to sound Italian? No clue, but do you like her new name?

She's currently filming Blood: the Last Vampire in Argentina.
