"My Sassy Girl" brought Jeon to the top of Korean actresses and many people still remember her "sassy" personality from this movie.

Later in 2004, Ji-Hyun starred in romantic comedy movie 'Windstruck' (내 여자친구를 소개합니다), which reunited her with the young director, Kwak Jae-young (director of My Sassy Girl). The film did well in the box office, but many say that the movie is too much similar to "My Sassy Girl", and Jeon should try a different role instead of her sassy, cute, and aggressive personality.
Jeon's recent role is between a love triangle in 'Daisy' (데이지), starring Jung Woo-sung and Lee Sung-jae. Hong Kong director Andrew Lau is behind this project along with Kwak Jae-young who wrote the screenplay. "Daisy" was released in Spring 2006. Jeon plays a street artist who recieves daisies from an anonymous man everyday at 4 p.m. She then mistakenly loves the wrong man, because the real daisy sender is a killer who needs to hide his identity. The film didn't do well for the box office, but it is a great film to watch if you're a fan of Jeon Ji Hyun.
