Nao Kanzaki: 'Top Twenty Faves list for 2017' #20....?


 Another year and yet another list, this one has proved to be the toughest one to date and haven't quite finished it yet. Need to drop one more fave and arrange the order for the top five, one through five for me were the easiest to pick, the positions from sixteen down are the most difficult. There's really not that much difference between the 16th and 22nd spots, lot of it has to do with my mood at the time or probably what effects a position more is how busy a fave has been for the year.


 But even though the lower spots are tougher this may have been among my easiest choices as there was no way I was going to leave Sung-Hee off it. Granted she's only had one solo post but you've seen her in all of the "While You Were Sleeping" recaps and as Hee-Min she's had plenty of screenshots. For you fans of the series the show wraps up next Thursday, after that will be doing the recaps for the final eight episodes. Think that's been the most popular Korean drama I've ever posted about, good reason for that as it's been one fine show.
 If there were more Sung-Hee solo posts then would have had her much, much higher in the rankings. Bet if she had ten or more she'd be battling for a top five spot as that's how much I like her, have no clue what others may think of her but to me she's kind of close to being unbeatable looks wise. No rational reason for not having more posts, I can honestly say that about at least twenty other gals here and kind of wish there were more than 24 hours in a day.



 If you read her first solo post then you'll remember those above pics which are from December 2013. As far as events go not many women in history have topped how Sung-Hee looked at the press conference. It was for the "Miss Korea" drama which was her first major role in a series and also the first thing I saw her in. May have done a few posts for the show but should have done more of them, it was a solid view but there are better Korean dramas out there.
 But then again how many shows have starred both Sung-Hee and the woman standing next to her!?!? By my count the total is zero, every now and again will give a spoiler on an upcoming position and the one she's with will no doubt end up in the top five which means she has a great shot at #1. On the show they did play rivals, more I ponder about the show more I realize it could merit a re-watch.





 Do have about sixty pics for this post and most of these will hopefully have the same amount. As I mentioned above there is a deciding factor in making the list and that's how many new pics I can post which have never been here before. Don't like having these posts being of just random/greatest hits  pics, no challenge to doing that plus you viewers don't learn much about one of my huge faves or why I chose them.
 Like most Korean actresses Sung-Hee doesn't appear in nearly as many mags as Japanese actresses do but have a pair for today. Want to save a few things for future posts and think we should have plenty more for her. Hopefully this post will garner her a few fans and with Sung-Hee's dazzling looks don't why it wouldn't. Though there aren't many mag spreads Sung-Hee does appear at so many promo events, premieres, screenings and whatever so future posts will have many pics for them. Not many females if any beat the way she looks at events, whewwww....



 Have many more events for this post but first lets get to those mag spreads. Korean pics in mags do look good but to me they can't compete with Japanese magazines who may be the best in the world. This first set is an oldie and is from the March 2014 edition of Sure.








 Need to space these mag pics out as there aren't a huge amount of them and need some for future posts. Also the spreads from Korea tend to be smaller, these four are from the June 2015 Celebrity.





 As mentioned above Sung-Hee is currently starring in the 'While you Were Sleeping" drama. She plays Hee-Min who is a prosecutor and a darn good one but in the shows sometimes her role is quite small but then again on occasion it's rather big, think she deserves another starring role. The series began on September 27th, five days before that there was a press conference for the show.















 Still need to play catch up for Sung-Hee's activities from the last three or more years, there are plenty of pics from 2017 but for the final two items will go back to the year 2014. In Korea they have many VIP premieres for the bigger movies, guess being invited means you're considered to be among the A-List actresses. Sung-Hee has appeared at many of them, there were more pics from this event but thought this post was getting big enough. Looking ultra super duper from the VIP premiere back on July 14, 2014 for the "Archipelago" film.








 Saved the best for last and when you gape at these pics you'll be in full agreement that they're the best. Sung-Hee had the lead female role in the 2014 drama "Diary of a Night Watchman, it began in August. In the show she plays the character of Do-Ha and it looks like such a good show, have been meaning to watch it but it's 24 episodes at one hour each which is the reason it hasn't been viewed.
 But a watch could happen, if there's no new compelling Korean dramas starting soon then I'll probably give that series a chance. On July 29th Sung-Hee was at an event for it and in all honesty how many women in the world topped how she looked? Once again will say zero and with these better than perfect pics the first post for this year's top twenty list is at it's end. There's also a short video at the bottom of the event if your beating heart can take it....
EDIT: Your heart can take it as yet another video was deleted from YT....

  2. Also no doubt that Sung-Hee is an attractive lady, personally like the 2 shots above the March 2014 'Sure' set 👌

  3. You will always miss a huge fave, that's happened to me the last two years. I'm going to have a tough time choosing who to omit as #19 wasn't on my list and was a late minute selection. Sung-Hee is definitely responsible for global warming, yes those two pics are certainly captivating and will have more in her next post.
