Uhm Jung-hwa
Defying easy categorization into the actress dichotomies of innocent (Choi Ji-woo, Song Hye-kyo) or sexy (Kim Hye-soo, Uhm Jung-hwa), Gong belonged to a third, very minor group of eccentrics that also include Kang Hye-jung and Bae Doona. Though not a typical beauty, after the success of "Pasta", Gong was given the label "Gongvely" by the press, a portmanteau of her surname and the English word "lovely."
