Jim Jul 09 2016 8:57 am I knew a Kim Hye Ja back in 1964-65, in Seoul, a recent grad of Ewha (as I recall). She'd be about the same age now as the movie star and humanitarian Kim Hye Ja. There are undoubtedly many, many Kim Hye Jas in Seoul, but the age and the school narrows it down a bit. She played piano or organ for church services on a US military base, as I mentioned in an earlier comment.

I have been unable to totally rule out the slim possibility that the Kim Hye Ja I've seen in movies is the one I knew way back then. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Mary Apr 25 2016 6:19 pm Why am I here? I came here from watching Ms. Kim Hye-Ja wonderful portrayal of Great Queen mother, in "Goong" (Princess Hours). I was really taken by her calm and unwavering countance through out. And I'm very surprised she didn't get an award for it. She kept the drama glued together. Don't miss seeing her in this.

Donor Macneice Mar 21 2015 12:48 am Ms Kim Hye-Ja is surely one of the "Greats" of the Korean Entertainment world. Her performances are always note-worthy, touching and sincere. But not in the theater world is she a "Great", her charity work in countries in Africa is amazing and worthy of so much praise. Thanks you for all you do.

yehet Mar 02 2015 7:43 pm She looks so much like an actress in what happens to my family. The wife of the oldest daughter's boss. I wonder if they are related?

anon Dec 22 2014 7:36 pm Is she married? Just wondering.

Jim Mar 05 2014 8:43 pm Great performances on screen and in real life. Does she have a Christian name Cecilia and did she ever play piano for church services in South Post Chapel in the 1960s before she became a star?

Kompian Nov 29 2012 2:40 am Kim Hye Ja, you are so beautiful. Such warm and generous smile. Stay healthy. God bless you always.

Angela Sep 30 2012 12:28 pm This woman is amazing, and very pretty. I loved her in "Mother", such an amazing performance, and what an ending. Beautiful!! I think her work her work with these children is amazing. What an all around amazing and generous lady. :)

Joel Dec 26 2010 6:11 pm Simply put, she is amazing, her performance in Mother was incredible and so believable.
