Park Soo Jin
Six popular Korean actors and actress – i.e. Jang Dong-gun, Kim Seung-woo, Hwang Jung-min, Ji Jin-hee, Gong Hyung-jin and Lee Hana – have formed a project group Actors Choice to sing an OST for online game We, with the hope that the song could lift the spirit of Korean folks during the economic downtime.
Decent song, and the stars sound pretty good (perhaps with the help with some studio magic lol).

Korean actress Lee Hana performed a few songs at the Grand Mint Festival 2008 on October 18 at Seoul Olympic Park in what should be her first stage performance since making her professional acting debut [via K-popped]
The 26-year-old actress is known for her musical capability. Her farther is a composer, and she studied music in university. She once said in an interview that she thought she would become a singer, but somehow started off as an actress (which she is doing pretty well anyway).
Lee Hana did show her singing talent on a few occasions in variety shows and in TV dramas, but this is probably the first time she sang in a public event at such level. I guess she was covering some songs from other artists because she has not released an album yet.
Sharing a couple of videos below… the first one is said to be Hana’s performance at her graduation ceremony, covering “Be Be Your Love” by Rachael Yamagata; while the second a short snippet of her singing in Korean drama “When Spring Comes”…
