Christy Turlington visited Korea with Calvin Klein in September 1996 to
launch the Calvin Klein Collection store in Seoul. She was the third
"supermodel" to visit Korea.
(*1)
She met her Korean fans at the store and
autographed pictures. Of course, I was there and got one. Envy me, everyone
-- I touched her!
Although Christy happens to be one of Korean fashion people's favourite foreign models,
some embarrassing things happened. First, a bumbling
sports paper printed a picture of Bridget Hall in place of Christy for their
article on the visit.

Second, our blind press people didn't notice her when
she arrived at the Kimpo airport! They explained that she looked so ordinary
without her makeup but I know the truth. They were looking for Bridget Hall. :-P
Korean Esquire and Korean Vogue took her pictures during her visit.
You can find them on my page.
