    Best actress from Lost... hide show

    Yunjin Kim is by far the best actress on Lost, people like Evangeline Lilly abd Elizabeth Mitchell a lot on the show but I think Yunjin is the better actress. I have not really seen her in anything else apart from Lost so this whole opinoin on her acting comes from her playing Sun on the show. Sun has been through a lot on the show her attitude, behavour and relationships with other characters have changed and you can really see that Yunjin is a deverse actress she does a fantastic job on the show. Her scenes with Daniel Dae Kim are great.

    I love her ! hide show

    Yunjin Kim is the best actress on Lost in my oponion. She's strong and confident and she knows when to act soft. Her development on the show is remarkable. From being the weak non-English speaking,controlled by her husband woman on the show to the weak woman with a broken heart and to finally the Sun we know now. The Sun who approached Widmore and almost killed Ben. The Sun that is willing to do anything for her husband. She really is an awesome actress. Sweet and lovable and really talented and she is gorgeous. I love her !! Sun is my favorite on the show. Hopefully after Lost she will get her own show. She does have potential :D

    Sun from lost hide show

    When I first started watching Lost, I kinda figured what character I would like and who I wouldn't. I have to admit at first Sun was one of those characters that I didn't like for one reason. I thought her character was weak. I am a very independent woman, and there is on way I would let a man run my life. But midway through the first season, Sun became her own individual and I was so proud when she finally stood up to Jin. She was on a role after that. Couldn't anybody mess with Sun. She doesn't play. I love her now!

    She is absoutely beautiful. hide show

    I love Yunjin's acting in Lost. If she is half as good as she is here when she performs in Asia, then dang, she must be pretty famous there too. She's really talented, I don't know why some people don't like her. Her character "Sun" on Lost is portrayed so magnificently (if that's a word) and it's just... total awe. The acting couldn't be any more well done. I'd say she is probably in my top 3 favorite characters of Lost, if I had to choose, I would choose her not to be killed off on the show. I love Yunjin, and I hope she makes a big career for herself in the US, because she certainly deserves it. Woot!
