yeah i've heard of her before... i really liked her 'sweet dream' album and her MV's are so cute and adorable.

haven't heard much of her new stuff tho and i don't really watch many korean dramas and such so i've never seen her as an actress... only as a singer.

she's quite pretty and can really put on the 'cute' act which is really adorable!

[jbalibean]

Oh she's pretty!! Yeah I already had her 3rd story album, it's nice. I like her singing style it's relaxed and nice to listen to when u work. I was gonna upload her album I see someone has already beat me to it :oops:

[remanua]

jang na ra... her voice isn't bad at all, face.. not as pretty as other korean but OK lah..., her act... errr... i dont really like her acting cute, coz i think she's overdone it, like in happy days. i think she needs to get out from her stereotypical "cute, brave, happy,hot-temepered girl". i've seen her in some sad, serious moment and i think she acted good enough, actually better from the "cute, angry girl" she's into. I really like her sad PV from My Love Patzii, (forgot the tittle), i think she looks very pretty and her sad expression is just RIGHT!

sorry, i posted her pic, because i see no official picture thread of her yet, so....

[ichigo fairy]

i think she's okay. her songs don't really catch my attention. i also saw her in "wedded bliss." i was actually taken aback when i learned that she was in her 20s! the way she acts on talk shows and music performances gave me an impression that she was about 12 years old!!! :crazy:

[sam_ho]

o.o...I dont know her..but she looks cute! She sings mandarin?!! have never heard of a korean singing mandarin.

[wanie_jay]

you should, she can speak quite fluent in them....
try this one, it's kinda cute, but, it's jang nara...

[chang454]

are you talking about "my bratty princess" ? (diao man gong zhu) if you are then ya it looks really good and she's so cute!

[kamceng]

oh, that drama. i love it cause it's so funny. but in malayssia the drama is called 'the mischievous princess'. the drama is totally funny, though i sometimes feel bored watching it. but overall, it's good anyway. my sister bought the vcd and i've watched it a few times. haha, i love watching jang nara and alec su(the emperor). hate bai yun fei!!!:bleh:
