Thank God for web stats, or else we wouldnt know what people were snooping around to find.
Ever since I posted the article and picture on Grace Park (see previous post), I have never had so much hits. Everything from Grace Park in a bikini, to Grace Park Asian or Not. And of course, I have to read what other blogs were saying about her and my favourite show - Battlestar Galactica.
Yes, she is 100% asian. She is tall. But then, that's no big surprise, considering she is Korean. Korean women are genetically more taller than the rest of the asian population. Go ahead, just ask another asian. And yes, folks. She is married. A big trail of broken hearts there....
Grace Park has come a long way since 2001 when she was just a featured actor on Romeo Must Die. She must have a very good agent representing her to have been considered as a top actor in the minority ranks. Even for Vancouver casting.
So, here's the 411 on her:
