Beauty wise, CJW is prettier. Her facial features are smaller (lips, eyes), but her face is more symmetrical. If you watch KHS you'll notice that her face isn't exactly symmetrical. A little bit like the female lead from What happened in Bali.

So I voted CJW Big Smile

in the looks dept, i reckon Kim Hee Sun by a country mile.

am extremely suprised by poll. also, i thought she was enhanced, but in fact she is 100% natural. think zdoon's baby shots confirm this.

re acting ability. jiwoo is ok, but i find her roles fairy stereotypical. she's...ok imo.

heesun - haven't seen her in that many roles, but i have been told she was pretty darn good in her past dramas.

I think CJW's popularity is the beneficiary of the recent Kdrama craze that swept Asia with that darn over rated Winter Sonata, Bae Yong Jun as well. Personally, I don't like anything that came out of that drama, talent wise. Also I don't think KHS is part of that wave which might explain why CJW is more adored now. Anyway, I like KHS for her classical beauty and elegance and in terms of acting, I think KHS acts in ways that is less annoying even if the director is doing a terrible job. But to be honest, I'm not a big fan of Korean acting so I had to lower my standards for this one.

Hmm... CJW is the best out there right now as far as tragic heroines who cry alot. Loved her in "Winter Sonata", "Stairway", and "Beautiful Days".Wasn't as impressed with her acting in "Everybody has a Little Secret" or "Romantic President". (Hated everything about "Honesty, but that wasn't her fault....) She did well in "First Kiss" to me though. I'd give her an A in roles suited to her and a B to B- in more comedic roles. B for versatility.

KHS I discovered much later. First saw her in "Propose", and didn't get much past her looks there. Enjoyed her perfomance in "Sad Sonata", and definitely liked her acting in movie roles more than CJW. "Calla", "Wanee and Junah", and even "Man Who Went To Mars" had better performances by her than any I've seen CJW play. (Though we could probably forget about Repage...)
I'd give her an A for her acting and an A for her versatility.

Hmm... All that being said, I'd say that KHS is the one I'd like to date and mess around with, while CJW is the one I'd rather end up marrying. Don't ask me why, I can't figure that one out either....

I vote for Kim Hee Sun
She is Hot Wub

Her best acting was in Sad Love Story. I've also seen her in other korean Movies.

This topis is all wrong,

Choi Ji-woo just out classes her in so many different departments. Someone who would be more comparable would be an actress like Song Yun-ah from Hotelier

frankly speaking..
i think they can act well
but as time goes by... you tend to know how they act n u can really anticipated/expect what comes next in their acting in each movies/dramas.

choi ji woo ..stairways to heaven.. is totally like a repeating dramas from her previous ones.. she needs to find sometimes that totally breaks her away . hopefully i get to see that in her upcoming drama.

kim hee sun.. i watch sad sonata half way n skip to the final... she just doesn't appeal to me at all in all the dramas she acts..i just don't know why.. i know she's beautiful.. but she doesn't really bring out the best in her yet.

CJW made me cry even before she did in Winter Sonata. She is that good with her facial expression and is undoubtedly Korea's crying queen, whether you like it or not (But true, her screaming in Stairways to Heaven (at the beach, when she turned blind) was heavy on my ears and sympathy). The rival in Sad Sonata can't act. Whether blind or not, her expressions were expressionless. Bottomline: CJW has more monster hits. And I bet she gets paid much more.
