‘Honey Thighs.’ The term was coined in 2009, when Afterschool’s UEE (23) became a hot Hallyu star. The girl known for her thighs was suddenly the new Korean sensation, making appearances in popular entertainment programs and receiving advertising opportunities reserved for only the most elite of Korean female celebrities. Furthermore, she was also offered a role on (then) the #1 Kdrama, ‘Seondeok Queen‘. No one could deny that UEE was the new ‘it’ girl. Every male in Korea wanted to date her, and every girl wanted to be her. Her sudden rise to fame undeniably caused some controversy but she carried on, showing the nation her uniquely distinct UEE appeal. To be frank, maybe not everyone knew UEE of Afterschool, but there were few that didn’t know ‘Honey Thighs UEE’.

[NEWS] Uee slaps Joo Won’s face in Ojakkyo Brothers

n the episode of KBS 2TV’s Ojakkyo Brothers that aired on the 27th, Ja Eun (Uee) lost a paper that proved her as the actual owner of Ojakkyo Farm.

Ja Eun kicked up a storm to find the paper, and started to be suspicious of the family of the farm. Ja Eun rummaged through Bok Ja (Kim Ja Ok)’s room but didn’t find the paper and ended up getting kicked out of the farm.

After a lot of thought, Ja Eun went to Hwang Tae Hee (Joo Won). Ja Eun asked him to find the paper, because that is the only way to find her father Baek In Ho (Lee Young Ha). Surprisingly, Tae Hee started to talk about Baek In Ho.

Tae Hee was investigating about Baek In Ho, and asked Ja Eun about her illicit admission that was related to Baek In Ho. Ja Eun slapped his face and said, “Don’t you ever call my dad’s name like that.”

Whether Ja Eun will be able to find the paper or not, and return to the farm safely is arousing many viewers’ curiosity.
