Korean actress Jeon Do-hyeon indeed won at the 60th Cannes Film Festival, for her work on Lee Chang-dong's film, Milyang (Secret Sunshine). I'm not surprised, as the film has been crowd favorite. (Below is her acceptance speech as reported in Korea).

Lee Chang-Dong's film 'Milyang' earns high marks from French portal
Wednesday, May 23, 2007
Lee Chang-dong's new film, Milyang (Secret Sunshine), starring Jeon Do-hyeon and my personal favorite Song Kang-ho, is receiving rave reviews from French viewers and critics.
The Korean film 'Milyang,' invited to compete at the 60th Cannes International Film Festival, is drawing rave foreign reviews.
The enthusiastic response is raising the odds of the film winning an award even before its official screening at Cannes on Thursday.
The Korean film has favorably been recognized by various foreign online film sites. On a French cinema portal, a local reporter, who saw the movie, gave Milyang four full stars.
Before the Cannes release, the film had been sold to Greece following France, reflecting a keen interest overseas.
The interest is attributed to the high quality of the film as well as the fame of director Lee Chang-dong, who won Best Director at the 2002 Venice Film Festival for his film 'Oasis.
