    Ya, the idea itself is interesting. Make something like a combo of Universal Studio, Disneyland and Madame Tussaud etc. and it’s going to be a great hit.

    Choi Ji Woo deserved to be an ambassador of the Hallyuwood because she was one of the initiator of the Hallyu Wave. As always she looked simple, beautiful & elegant. I hope I will be able to go to Hallyuwood themepark in 2012. It will be a great place to see.
