The Miss Universe Pagent is set to start on May 28.  I really couldn’t give a rat’s ass about it, but I figured now’s a good time to show you some photos of Korea’s representative, Honey Lee (이하늬).

The following information was taken from the official Miss Universe website:

What are your interests and what do you enjoy doing the most?
I love to learn foreign languages including English, ancient Hebrew, Chinese, and Japanese. Moreover, I enjoy dancing and traveling. I also play various musical instruments as well, including the Kayageum, which is a Korean traditional instrument, violin, piano, and flute.

What do you want the judges to know about you?
I am eclectic. I am a 3rd degree black belt in Taekwondo, a competitive skier and a scuba diver. I am a professional player of Kayageum and have released 4 CDs and played in more than 25 countries worldwide, including concerts at Carnegie Hall in New York City. I am already an ambassador of culture for Korea and was recently named a Kayageum prodigy by the Kumho Art Center, the most prestigious musical foundation in Korea. I am in graduate school at Seoul National University, the top university in Korea. When I graduated with my Bachelor’s degree (also from Seoul National University), I received my honors degree from there. My volunteer work includes work for UNICEF, Compassion and World Vision (an NGO) and I sponsor a child. My future goals includes work with the U.N.
