^Yes! Her candid shots from COACD completely sold me on Hyoni! Thanks for passing along the news.

 

[smartarse]

Korea looked pretty cool in those coacd shots.

UK, Russia, Latvia got contracts too.

 

[Li Ya Fan]

^ And USA

 

[smartarse]

^ Kendra Spears?

[Li Ya Fan]

^ Wasn't she "representing" myspace? I assume USA meant Jacquelyn Jablonski

Congrats to UK, Russia and Latvia and USA who also received contracts.

you mean to tell me MySpace is considered a whole different world?

... but it's Made in the USA

^ And USA

Hehe. But I guess it's no different from several EML contestants already being signed with Elite Paris.

Yay, Korea!

Aw, I wonder how Cecile did.

Hyoni looked so much better in the COACD shot, and she seems like quite the character. I'm sure it was a well-deserved win

I'm happy for Alexina too. She photographs a bit flat, but I like her look, and she's super tall! Not so sure about the other winners... I thought there were better girls

Very underwhelming set of winners.

The ALL look like high-school girls shopping at a NJ mall. I understand they are indeed teenage girls, but I was waiting for someone to catch my eye. No Tanya D's here.... Very underwhelming, I agree with gabe.

 

[Zoely]

non of them are special :S

 

[Xone]

wninners??...i tought just Korea won.....

 

[smartarse]

gah! they're the other winners? it's either their makeup and the way they dressed makes them look uninspiring non-modelesque girls. What happened to Serbia, Bosnia, Ireland, i thought they got potential ...

 

[shotguntolove]

i liked korea

 

[Mr-Dale]

Hyoni is the big winner...those other girls came in second, third etc etc and were also given contracts at Ford. I for one am happy that Hyoni won...I think she's bubbly and very beautiful and am interested to see her more. Perhaps she'll do NYFW next month?

Too bad for Cecile
